5.10 TOWING / TRAILERING
If the tractor experiences problems and must be
shut down and removed from the area, it should be
loaded onto a trailer for transport. If a trailer is not
available, the unit can be towed slowly for short
distances.
NOTE: Do not exceed 3.2 KPH while towing. Long
distance towing is not recommended.
Use care when loading and unloading tractor.
Fasten tractor to trailer to prevent tractor from rolling
or shifting during transport.
Before towing, open tow valve. The tow valve
permits moving the tractor without starting the
engine and prevents possible damage to hydraulic
components.
The tow valve (Z) is located on the drive pump
beneath the cowling. To open valve, insert a pin into
the small hole in the tow valve and turn the valve
counterclockwise not more than one full turn.
Close valve completely and replace cover after
towing.
