CAUTION
To avoid personal injury:
Use the clutch when making an
emergency stop or working in
confined areas, such as getting
tractor in position to attach an
Implement.
An accident may occur with er-
ratic shifting operation. For safe
operation, move main gear shift
lever only one gear at a time.
Shift the main gear shift lever
firmly and without hesitation.
Improper shift lever position will
cause the tractor to momentarily
coast on slopes.
Avoid changing gears when
climbing or descending a slope.
Before ascending or descending
a slope, shift to a gear low enough
to control tractor speed without
using brakes to maintain control.
Operate in reverse at slow
speeds to maintain control.
IMPORTANT
Start in lower gears and shift one
gear at a time until desires gear
is obtained.
To prolong clutch life, avoid slip-
ping the hydraulic clutch. Pay at-
tention to the following points:
Select proper gear and engine
speed depending on the type of
job.
Avoid lugging the engine, espe-
cially in higher gears. If RPM’s
drop excessively, shift to lower
gear.
In cold climate, it may take linger
for the tractor to move after the
main shift lever is moved. This is
because the transmission oil
must warm up.
Warm up the machine long
enough. If there is not enough
time to do so, start the machine
with the shuttle shift lever or the
clutch.
There is no problem with a delay
in starting. The machine will start
as the oil temperature increases.
