TRANSPORTING

SAFETY CHAIN (Optional)

Follow state and local regulations regarding use of a safety chain and transport lighting when towing
farm equipment on public highways. A proper safety chain should be used to retain the safety connection
between the towing and towed machines, in the event of separation of the primary attaching system.
Check with local law enforcement agencies for your own particular regulations. Unless otherwise
prohibited, use a slow-moving vehicle emblem. Never tow the 

Top Shot

 on a public highway at a speed

greater than 20 m.p.h. (32 kph).

As required or when desired, the 

Top Shot

 can be equipped with a safety chain for travel on public

highways.

1. Chain is sufficiently slack to allow turns and movements of either the tractor or the 

Top Shot

,

without placing tension on the chain.

2. Chain is of sufficient strength to hold the decoupled implement (and its load) and tow it to the

shoulder.

TOWING ON HIGHWAY

To view beyond the back of the larger trailer-mounted 

Top Shot

 when transporting the unit on a public

highway, consider obtaining and installing a rear view mirror on your tractor with a wide load mounting
bracket.

TRANSPORT LIGHTING & REFLECTORS

Transport lighting with a 7 pin plug is standard equipment
on all 

Top Shot

 Models. The lighting system is to be

connected to the 7 pin power receptacle (per SAEJ560B)
on your tractor. If your tractor is not equipped with the proper
receptacle, see your tractor dealer for details.

 

Red reflective

safety decals and a SMV sign are on the rear of the tank
for safety.

STORAGE

Because the 

Top Shot

 is likely to be used year-round, it should be in ready-to-operate condition at all

times. Several provisions have been designed into the 

Top Shot

 to enable it to be used in cold, moderate

and warm outside temperatures. The most important factor for continuous proper operation is lubrication.
When operating the 

Top Shot

 in freezing temperatures, the unit should be stored inside, if possible.

Refer to Operation Chapter for special operating procedures in freezing temperatures.
