Transport Tractor Safely
A disabled tractor is best transported on a flatbed carrier. Use chains to secure the tractor to the carrier. The axles and tractor frame are suitable attachment points.
Before transporting the tractor on a low-loader truck or flat-bed rail waggon, make sure that the hood is secured over the tractor engine and that doors, roof hatch (if equipped) and windows are properly closed.
Never tow a tractor at a speed greater than 10 km/h (6 mph). An operator must steer and brake the tractor under tow.
