RECOMMENDATIONS FOR TILT-UP
DECK OPERATION AND TRANSPORT
To avoid potential deck and/or tractor damage
while using the tilt-up deck, the following recom-
mendations are oered:
● Do not move the tractor with the deck in the
tilt-up position since both the roller wheels (on
the back of the deck) may be damaged by
moving the tractor. The tilt-up conguration
should only be used when the tractor is
parked.
● The tractor seat should never be tilted
forward with the deck in the tilt-up position.
This can cause the deck to unhook from the
tractor and fall with considerable force, poten-
tially causing deck or tractor damage and/or
bodily injury.
● When transporting a tractor with the deck in
the tilt-up position (on a truck or trailer), the
deck should be secured to the vehicle with a
strap or rope (stop vertical movement). This
will prevent the deck from bouncing on the rear
roller wheels (causing breakage). This will
also prevent the deck from unhooking from the
tractor and falling, potentially causing deck or
tractor damage. Damage to other items
parked in front of the deck may also occur.
