Q. I’m going up north to my cabin to cut the grass and pick up leaves one last time. What is the proper way to transport my tractor?
A. First, load the tractor facing towards the front of the trailer, this will ensure that the wind does not open or damage the hood. Second, lower the mower deck all the way down to the trailer bed, relieving stress on the mower link. Third, tie down the tractor on all four points. That way if one tie down comes loose, you still have the tractor tied down on three points. Forth, turn off the on / off valve for the fuel, if the engine has one.
