Anhydrous Ammonia Tank

Exposure to anhydrous ammonia can cause serious injury or death to you or others. Verify that machine has been properly bled and NO anhydrous ammonia is present in lines BEFORE transporting. (See BLEED ANHYDROUS AMMONIA SYSTEM in Service section.)

  1. Attach tank to rear hitch using locking pin and secure with safety chain. Consult anhydrous ammonia dealer on securing safety chain correctly to hitches. (See ATTACH ANHYDROUS AMMONIA TANK in Attaching and Detaching section.)

  2. CAUTION: A safety chain will help control drawn equipment should it accidentally separate from rear hitch. A runaway machine can cause serious injury or death to you or others. Use appropriate adapter parts, attach chain to tractor rear hitch. Provide only enough slack in chain to permit turning. See your John Deere dealer for a chain with a strength rating equal to or greater than gross weight of towed machine.

    Verify safety chain is securely attached to rear hitch.

  3. Verify SMV is in place on nurse tank.

  4. Secure tank supply hose.
