7. Improper use of the draw-bar, even
if correctly positioned, can cause a
rear overturn.
8. Do not overload an attachment
or towed equipment. Use proper
counterweights to maintain tractor
stability. Hitch heavy loads to the
draw-bar only.

9. Check for correct coupling be-
tween tow hook and trailer. See
the Towing Attachments chapter.
10. Use ballast weight as recom-
mended. Never add more ballast
to compensate a higher load than
allowed. Reduce load for safety.
11. A safety chain will help control
drawn equipment should it be
accidentally separated from the
draw-bar while transporting.
H11O682a
Using the proper adaptor parts,
attach the chain to the tractor
draw-bar support or other speci-
ed anchor location. Provide only
enough slack in the chain to per-
mit turning. See your Dealer for a
chain with a strength rating equal
to, or greater than the gross
weight of the towed machine.
