DETERMINE OPERATING TIME
Determining operating time is easily accom¬
plished if the tractor is equipped with an
optional hourmeter. If not, multiply the time
it takes to do one job by the number of times
you’ve done the job.
NORMAL CARE SCHEDULE
A schedule for normal care is provided in
Table 1.
RAISING HOOD & SEAT DECK
To raise the hood, grasp both sides of the
