If
the tractor is stuck, reverse out
to
prevent
overturning the unit.
•
Always
use
the
drawbar for pull-type work.
Do
not pull from any other part
of
the tractor
since
it
may tip backward.
• Keep the
lights
adjusted so they do not blind
the operator
of
an oncoming vehicle.
•
Engage
the clutch
s"/owly
when driving out
of
a
ditch, gully or
up
a steep
hUlside.
Disengage
the clutch promptly
if
the front wheels rise
off
the
ground.
• Reduce speed before turning or applying
the
brakes. Lock the brake
pedals
together when
travelling
at
high speed or on
the
highway.
Bra/ce
both wheels simultaneously when mak-
ing an emergency stop.
• Never apply
the
differential lock when turning.
• Use extreme caution and avoid hard applica-
tion
of the tractor brakes when pulling heavy,
towed loads
at
road speeds.
• Towed loads that
weigh
more than the weight
of
the
tractor
should
have
brakes for safe op-
eration.
Ensure
compliance with local regula-
tions.
• Always sit
in
the driver's seat while starting or
driving
the
tractor.
•
Always
use
a slow
moving
vehicle
(SMV)
em-
blem
when
travelling on public
roads.
SLOW MOVING VEHICLE EMBLEM
A triangular
SMV
(slow moving vehicle) emblem
is
affixed
to
the
rear
of
the
operator's scat. Before
driving on
lhe
highway, ensure that the emblem
is
in place
and
not obstructed, damaged or dirty.
POWER
TAKE-OFF
The power take-off (P.T.O.) transfers engine
power directly
to
mounted
or trailed equipment
via
a splined shaft at the rear
of
the
tractor.
The
P.T.0. shaft
is
a 6-spline,
1.375
in. (34.9
mm)
diameter shaft designed
for
540 rev/min opera-
tion, the speed
at
which most
P.T.O.
actuated
equipment
is
designed
to
run.
Independent
P.T.O.
may
be
engaged or disen-
gaged whether
the
tractor is moving
or
stationary.
The speed
of
rotation of
the
shaft is independent of
the
clutch
and
of tractor
speed
and
is related
di-
rectly to the speed
of
the
engine.
All P.T.O. controls are color-coded
yellow.
Attaching P.T.O. Driven
Equipment
A WARNING: Before attaching or
.a
detaching equipment:
• Firmly apply the parking brake.
• Move the
main
and
high/
low
gearshift levers
to
neutral.
• Disengage
the
P.T.O.
by
pulling
the
P.T.O.
se-
lector
rearwards.
• Stop the
engine.
• Ensure that
the
P.T.O.
shaft
has
stopped
turn-
ing.
To connect
P.T.O.
driven equipment
to
the
P.T.0.
shaft, tilt the
guard
upward,
as
shown
in
figure
12,
to
gain access.
It
is
not
necessary
to
remove
the
guard.
Unscrew
and
remove
the P.T.0. cap
and
store
in
the
toolbox.
Attach
the
implement
to
the
P.T.O. shaft
and
lower
the
guard.
The
P.T.O.
guard
has
a special spring-loaded
hinge that will
retain
the
guard
in
any
one
of
sev-
eral points between
the
horizontal
and
fully
raised
