7.1 LOADING
NOTE: Heaping material over the sides of the box will add a significant amount of weight to the load.
NOTE: Overloading can have detrimental effects on the integrity of the implement and it’s safe use. Some
materials such as soybeans may not be able to be filled to struck level. Overloading will void warranty and
increase risk to the operator's safety. Always be aware of your gross weight.
NOTE: Maximum Gross Weight is the lesser value between the Implement, chassis, or tires.

DO NOT allow anyone to operate, service, inspect or otherwise
handle this forage box until all operators have read and understand
all of the instructional materials in this Operator’s And Parts Manual
and have been properly trained in its intended usage.
Before operating the forage box, look in all directions and make sure
no bystanders, especially small children are in the work area.
Do not climb or step on any part of the forage box at any time.
Turn on level ground. Slow down when turning.
Go up and down slopes, not across them.
Keep the heavy end of the machine uphill.
Do not overload the machine.
Check for adequate traction.
Shutoff and lockout power before performing machine service,
adjusting, maintaining, or clearing an obstruction from this machine.
Refer to section 5.3 SHUTOFF & LOCKOUT POWER.
Overloading may cause failure of axles, tires, structural members,
hitches, loss of vehicle control. DO NOT exceed maximum gross
weight. (See 11.0 SPECIFICATIONS on page 63.)
Filling the forage box evenly from the front to rear will ensure there is
downward force on the tractor hitch and provide traction for the
tractor wheels.
