Transporting the Machine

You can transport the machine to work sites using any
traction unit with a draw-bar-type hitch. The machine
is not designed for highway towing.
•
The wide flotation turf tires are not for highway use
and are only for speeds below 24 km/h (15 mph).
At speeds above 24 km/h (15 mph), the tires will
lose their tread, cause harm to the operator, and
damage the equipment.
•
Ensure that the deck is raised and the casters
cannot contact the ground during transport. Also,
ensure that the cylinder lock bar
place to prevent the lift cylinder from compressing
during transport.
