3.8 Comply with the Transport Speed Limit
The maximum permissible travel speed for this implement is 20 km/h (12 mph).
Some tractors can operate at speeds higher than the maximum speed limit for this implement. Do not exceed the
implement's transport speed limit.
Exceeding the implement's maximum transport speed can result in:
• Loss of control of the tractor/implement combination
• Reduced stopping power or no ability to stop during braking
• Damage to the implement's structure or components
Be careful and slow down in adverse conditions, when turning and when operating on slopes.
3.9 Service Machine Safely
• To help prevent personal injury caused by unexpected movement, be sure to service machine on level
surface.
• If the implement must be in a raised position while working on or near it, be certain service locks are
installed or machine is adequately supported.
• If implement is connected to tractor, engage parking brake and/or place transmission in “PARK”, shut off
engine and remove key.
• If the implement is detached from tractor, block wheels and use safety stands to prevent movement.
• Operations and adjustments to the implement must always be carried out when the engine is off and tractor
braked.
3.10 Practice Safe Maintenance
• Understand service procedure before doing work. Keep area clean and dry.
• Never lubricate, service, or adjust implement while it is moving. Keep hands, feet, and clothing from
power-driven parts. Disengage all power source. Lower implement to the ground. Stop the engine. Remove
the key. Allow implement to cool.
• Securely support any implement elements that must be raised for service work.
• Keep all parts in good condition and properly installed.
• Fix damage immediately. Replace worn or broken parts.
• Remove any buildup of grease, oil, or debris.
