2.30 To avoid rear overturns
WARNING : Hitching to the rear axle, or any
other point above the swinging drawbar, can
cause a rear overturn.
DO NOT pull anything using the top link connection, or
from any point above the centre line of the rear axle.
Always use an approved drawbar, and only use
a drawbar pin that locks into place.
High hitching can cause rear overturn, which may
cause serious injury or death. Hitch loads to the
drawbar only.
When using a three-point linkage drawbar, the stays
must be fitted and kept in the down position.
Use front counterweights to increase tractor stability
when towing a heavy load or to counter balance a
heavy rear mounted implement (Fig.2-23).
DO NOT overload your tractor and DO NOT ballast it
beyond its carrying capacity. Never add ballast weight
to counterbalance an overload. Reduce the load
instead (Fig.2-24).
WARNING : An overload is always
dangerous. Check the loading capacity of your
tractor and NEVER overload (Fig.2-24).
