gage the front wheel.

ON OFF
FRONT WHEEL DRIVE IS EFFECTIVE FOR
THE FOLLOWING JOBS:
1. When greater pulling force is needed,
such as working in a wet field, when
pulling a trailer or when working with
a front-end loader.
2. When working in sandy soil.
3. When working on a hard soil where a
rotary tiller might push the tractor
forward.

HAND THROTTLE LEVER
Pushing the throttle lever back increases
engine speed, and pulling it forward de-
creases engine speed.
FOOT THROTTLE
Use the foot throttle when traveling on
the road. Press down on it for higher
speed. The foot throttle is interlocked with
the hand throttle lever; when using the
foot throttle, keep the hand throttle lever
in low idling position.
CAUTION
To avoid personal injury:
You should not engage your front
wheel drive while traveling at
road speeds. This can cause your
tractor to stop quickly, and
unexpectedly.
IMPORTANT
Depress the clutch pedal before
engaging the front wheel drive
lever.
Tires will wear quickly if front
wheel drive is engaged on paved
roads.
