Towing-All Wheels On Ground

IMPORTANT: Never attempt to start tractor by towing.

Avoid damaging the transmission and hydraulic systems. Operate engine above 1250 rpm to provide adequate system lubrication. All pressure indicator lights must be off.

Do not exceed 8 km/h (5 mph) when towing the tractor.

Check transmission oil level (A) and hydraulic oil level (B). (See Lubrication Section.)

Check axle oil level for tractors equipped with Powershift transmission. (See Lubrication Section.)

IMPORTANT: Avoid damaging side frame. Use a tow hook and chain to tow tractor. Slots in side frame are for tie-down purposes during transport only.

NOTE: Tow hooks are available at your John Deere Dealer.
