OPERATING THE TRACTOR38
BOperating on a Slopes and Rough Terrain
To avoid personal injury:
A Always back up when going up a steep slope.
Driving forward could cause the tractor to tip
over backward. Stay off hills and slopes too
steep for safe operation.
A Avoid changing gears when climbing or
descending a slope.
A If operating on a slope, never disengage shift
levers to "NEUTRAL". Doing so could cause
loss of control.
A Do not drive the tractor close to the edges of
ditches or banks which may collapse under the
weight of the tractor. Especially when the
ground is loose or wet.
1. Slow down for slopes, rough ground, and sharp turns,
especially when transporting heavy, rear mounted
equipment.
2. Before descending a slope, be sure that the range
lever is in the low " " so that speed can be
controlled without using brakes.
BDirections for Use of Power Steering
1. Power steering is activated only while the engine is
running. While the engine is stopped, the tractor
functions in the same manner as tractors without
power steering.
2. When the steering wheel is turned all the way to the
stop, the relief valve is activated. Do not hold the
steering wheel in this position for a long period of time.
3. Avoid turning the steering wheel while the tractor is
stopped, or tires may wear out sooner.
4. The power steering mechanism makes the steering
easier. Be careful when driving on a road at high
speeds.
