The tilt-up configurationshould only be used when the tractor isparked.● The tractor body should never be tiltedforward with the deck in the tilt-up position.This can cause the deck to unhook from thetractor and fall with considerable force, poten-tially causing deck or tractor damage and/orbodily injury.● When transporting a tractor with the deck inthe tilt-up position (on a truck or trailer), thedeck should be secured to the vehicle with astrap or rope (stop vertical movement). Thiswill prevent the deck from bouncing on the rearroller wheels (causing breakage). This willalso prevent the deck from unhooking from thetractor and falling, potentially causing deck ortractor damage. Damage to other itemsparked in front of the deck may also occur.
