LIFT

LEVER:

(Figure

is

used

for

lifting

mounted

attachments,

such

as

the

rotary

mower,

or

the

tiller

out

of

the

operating

position

so

they

can

be

transported.

You

can

also

regulate

the

height

of

attachments,

such

as

the

grader

blade,

and

snow

thrower,

by

using

the

notches

and

provided.

The

thumb

is

provided

to

dis¬

DUAL

LIFT

LEVER:

(OPTIONAL)

(Figured

provides

a

convenient

means

of

attachment

such

as

a

snow

thrower

or

a

mow

and

dozer

blade

independently

of

A

good

example

is

if

you

wish

to

use

the

rotary

tiller

and

the

snow

plow

and

do¬

zer

blade

in

preparing

a

seed

Both

attachments

can

be

mounted

to

the

and

the

can

conveniently

raise

or

each

of

them

from

Also

depressing

the

safety

in

CONTROLLING

TRACTOR

ENGINE

SPEED

Most

power

take

off

driven

attachments

operate

best

at

a

particular

speed.

Since

the

speed

of

the

power

take

off

drive

is

direedy

related

to

the

engine

speed

it

is

desirable

to

ad'

just

the

engine

speed

to

control

attachment

speed

and

use

the

hydrostatic

lever

to

control

ground

speed.

For

pulling

light

loads

or

transporting

the

tractor

and

attachments

from

one

area

to

another,

adjusting

the

engine

speed

is

one

meth¬

od

of

controlling

tractor

ground

speed.

HYDROSTATIC

TRANSMISSION

CONTROL

The

hydrostatic

equipped

tractor

is

designed

so

that

for¬

ward

and

reverse

movement

can

be

completely

controlled

without

the

use

of

the

clutch.

Simply

squeeze

the

control

handle

and

move

it

forward

to

start

the

tractor

moving

ahead.

To

slow

the

tractor

move

the

control

to

the

rear.

As

the

control

is

moved

further

away

from

neutral

the

tractor

ground

speed

will

increase.

The

clutch

and

brake

pedal

may

be

depressed

to

stop

the

tractor

at

any

time.

It

is

very

handy

to

use

the

clutch

to

slow

down

for

turns

or

when

mowing

in

confined

areas

when

both

hands

are

needed

for

steering.

STARTING

TRACTOR

TRAVEL

Assure

yourself

that

the

area

in

which

you

are

going

to

drive

the

tractor

is

free

of

obstructions.

Release

the

parking

brake

and

look

around

to

insure

there

are

no

obstructions

in

your

path-

To

start

T

squeeze

the

trigger

neutral

position

slowly

until

you

have

reached

the

desired

Always

move

In

emergencies

or

if

both

hands

are

required

on

the

steering

wheel,

you

may

depress

the

clutch

and

to

and

remove

HOT

WEATHER

OPERATION

When

operating

the

tractor

at

temperatures

above

75*F

pay

particular

attention

to

the

following

items

to

prevent

dam¬

age.

1.

Keep

the

engine

cooling

fins

dean

and

free

of

obstruction

which

would

decrease

air

flow

to

and

from

the

engine.

See

page

15

for

cleaning

instructions.

2.

Keep

the

transmission

oil

(fluid)

cooler

clean

and

free

of

dirt

and

chaff

which

would

restrict

air

flow.

Also

keep

the

cooler

free

of

oil.

An

oil

film

on

the

outside

of

the

cooler

greatly

reduces

its

cooling

ability.

See

page

15

for

instruc¬

tions

on

cleaning

the

oil

cooler.

3.

Insure

that

you

are

using

the

proper

grade

and

weight

of

oil

in

the

engine

for

the

temperature

where

the

tractor

is

be*

mg

used.

Check

the

oil

level

each

time

you

fill

the

fuel

tank.

DO

NOT

OVERFILL

THE

CRANKCASE

-

ENGINE

OVERHEATING

MAY

RESULT.

4.

Check

the

battery

water

level

more

frequently

than

every

25

hours

which

is

recommended

under

normal

conditions.

High

temperatures

cause

faster

evaporation

of

water

from

the

battery.

5.

Remove

the

carburetor

heat

deflector

used

with

the

snow

thrower

or

dozer

blade.

COLD

WEATHER

OPERATION

When

the

tractor

is

being

used

in

temperatures

below

30°

F,

check

the

following

items

closely:

1.

Use

the

correct

grade

and

weight

of

oil

for

the

tempera¬

ture

conditions.

Change

the

oil

only

when

the

engine

is

warm.

If

an

unexpected

temperature

drop

occurs

when

the

engine

is

filled

with

summer

oil,

before

starting

the

engine,

move

the

tractor

to

a

warm

location

until

the

oil

will

flow

freely.

2.

Use

fresh

ftiel.

Fill

the

fuel

tank

after

each

days

use
