Transporting
CAUTION:
Follow local regulations regarding width, lighting and marking. The use of a spotter or a pilot vehicle is recommended on busy, narrow or hilly roads and when crossing bridges.
IMPORTANT:
See your combine operator's manual for specific tires required when operating the header.
Check local width laws before transporting. The platform can be transported by leaving it attached to the combine but it is recommended that a trailer be used for the 930 F or 930 R Platforms and other models.
