CONTROLS, INSTRUMENTS AND
OPERATION,--
Prior to installation, remove
the
P.T.O. safety cap
and
guard and the drawbar. Install the belt pulley
on the
P.

spacers provided.
The
use
of a belt guard is strongly recommended.
To Operate the Belt Pulley
• Fully
raise
and
secure the lower links.
• Align the tractor with the equipment to obtain
full width contact on both pulleys without
the
belt contacting any other part of the tractor or
equipment.
• Apply the parking brake
and
block all wheels
to prevent tractor movement due
to
vibration.
• Hang a chain or lean an iron bar against
the
tractor to ground static electricity.
• Start the engine and engage the P.T
.0.
The
recommended belt speed
is
3000-3200 ft/min
(15.3 -
16.3
m/sec).
To
obtain this speed set
the engine
speed
at 2200 rev/min.
A
WARNING:
Never attempt
to
re-fit or
4llla adjust a belt in motion. Never approach
a moving belt
when
wearing loose clothing.
Firmly apply
the
parking brake, place both gear·
shift levers
in neutral and block all four wheels
before operating
the
belt pulley.
