Transporting Safely
CAUTION:
Travel at a reasonable and safe speed. Do not exceed weight and speed guidelines shown in the Safety section. Reduce speed considerably when traveling over rough ground.
Reduce speed when turning. Do not uncouple tractor brake pedals and apply the tractor brakes individually in an attempt to make a shorter turn.
Serious injury or death can result from contact with electric lines. Use care when moving or operating this machine near electrical lines to avoid contact. Know the transport height of your machine.
CAUTION:
When transporting your machine on a road or highway at night or during the day, use accessory lights (A), SMV emblems (B), reflector tape (C), or reflectors (D), for adequate warning to operators of other vehicles. In this regard, check local governmental regulations. These various safety lights and devices are available from your John Deere dealer.
