OPERATING THE TRACTOR20
By combination of using the main gear shift lever and the
range gear shift lever, forward speeds and reverse
speeds shown in the table below are obtained.
BMain Gear Shift Lever
The main gear shift is partially synchronized allowing to
shift on the go between 3rd and 4th speeds and 7th and
8th speeds.
Just depress the clutch and shift, coming to a complete
stop is not necessary.
When changing between 1st and 2nd speeds and 5th and
6th speeds, depress the clutch and stop the tractor before
shifting.
A For road travel, start the tractor in a lower gear (7th),
and then shift to a higher gear (8th).
This will prolong the service life of clutch.
BRange Gear Shift Lever
The range gear shift lever may be shifted between "LOW"
and "REVERSE" range while the tractor is moving slowly,
but sudden direction change may cause transmission
damage.
To change the "HIGH" range, depress the clutch pedal
and stop the tractor before shifting.
BFront Wheel Drive Lever
To avoid personal injury:
A Do not engage the front wheel drive when
traveling at road speed.
A When driving on icy, wet, or loose surfaces,
make sure the tractor is correctly ballasted to
avoid skidding and loss of steering control.
Operate at reduced speed and engage front
wheel drive.
A An accident may occur if the tractor is
suddenly braked, such as by heavy towed
loads shifting forward or loss of control.
A The braking characteristics are different
between two and four wheel drive. Be aware of
the difference and use carefully.
