Be sure that trailer has all the necessary lights and signs required by
law.
CAUTION: Avoid injury! Use extra care when loading or
unloading the machine onto a trailer or truck. Machine
wheels can go off the ramp or trailer, causing the machine to
tip over.

away from drop-offs and edges.
● Do not use two separate loading ramps. Use full width
loading ramp at least 30 cm (12 in) wider than machine to
keep caster wheels from going off the ramp edge.

Transporting Material Collection System (If
Equipped)
If the material collection system is left on the machine during transport,
follow these guidelines when trailering the unit:
● Empty the cloth bags and remove them from the hopper. Full bags
add extra weight which can overstress the hopper frame on rough
roads. At road travel speeds, wind can cause premature wear of the
cloth bags.
● Make sure that the hopper cover is latched securely to the hopper
frame.
● If the unit is transported over long distances or at high speeds,
remove the rear bagger or power ow chute before transport.

Towing Loads
IMPORTANT: Avoid damage! Towing excessive trailer loads can
stress drivetrain components. To avoid damage to
drivetrain components, use the following guidelines.
● Do not exceed maximum towing capacity of 113.4 kg (250 lbs).
● Do not exceed maximum tongue weight of 45.4 kg (100 lbs).
● Always run tractor at full throttle when towing loads.
● Avoid inclines greater than a 10 degree slope while towing to avoid
damage to the pulling machine. Use the Slope Guide located in this
operator’s manual to ensure proper machine towing operation. See
Operating on Slopes in the Safety section for additional information.
● Avoid making tight turns. Make wide turns to avoid jack-kning.
● Travel slowly and allow extra stopping distance.
