Transporting

CAUTION: When traveling on public roads whether at night or during the day, use the accessory light and devices for adequate warning to operators of other vehicles.

1. When raising the machine to the transport position, adjust the tractor’s 3-point hitch lift height so that the machine drive wheel is lifted up to 35 cm off the ground to prevent damage to the implement.
2. Be sure to reduce tractor ground speed when turning and leave enough clearance so that the seed drill does not contact obstacles such as buildings, trees or fences.
3. Select a safe ground travel speed when transporting from one area to another. When traveling on roadways transport in such a way that the faster moving vehicles pass you safely.
4. When traveling over rough or hilly terrain, shift the tractor to a lower gear.
5. During transport or whenever the implement must be raised, it is advisable to adjust the lift unit of the tractor so that the implement itself is not raised more than about 35 cm from the ground.
6. Do not drive on public highways.
7. Lower the machine slowly. Do not allow it to drop violently on the ground. Doing this would strongly stress all the machine components and could damage them.
