MODELS DESIGNED FOR
FRONT-MOUNTED ATTACHMENTS
Models of the 800 series are convertible model desi-
gned primarily as pusher for front-mount attachments,
they have the PTO (power take-off) coupling up front,
and the engine and control column at the rear.
852 has 4 speeds
forward
and 3 speeds
reverse
as pu-
sher, 3 speeds forward and 3 speeds reverse as tractor.
853 has 3 speeds forward and 3 speeds reverse as
pusher, but in rear-mount attachments (tractor) has 4
speeds forward and 3 speeds reverse.
Swinging the handlebars around to place them over the
PTO coupling at the rear of the unit converts them for
rear-mount attachments (tractor).
The transmission changes drive wheel rotation to drive
the unit forward in either front-mount or rear-mount
mode.
Selecting one of three available gear positions on the
gear selector, and engaging the
red reverser lever
on
the right handlebar backs up the unit in either front-
mount or rear-mount mode.
The
high speed lockout blocks
selection of gear po-
sition #4 for backing up the units.
MODELS DESIGNED FOR
REAR-MOUNTED ATTACHMENTS
All models of the 700 series and 948 are designed for
rear-mount tillers, and all models are convertible for
front-mount attachments.
In the rear-mount mode, the PTO (power take-off) flan-
ge and the control column are at the rear and the engi-
ne is up front.
Models 710, 718, 722 and 732 have three speeds
forward
, two
reverse
.
Model 948 has four speeds
forward
, three
reverse
.
Swinging the control column around from the PTO end
of the unit to the engine end converts it for front-mount
attachments.
A safety high speed/reverse lockout device on the con-
trol column blocks the high
forward
speeds on 710,
718, 722, 732 and 948 which are too fast for use in
backing the unit.
All models have a new type transmission that drives the
unit forward when placed in gear-even when converted
for front-mount attachments. In either front-drive or rear-
drive mode, selecting any gear except the high speed
(that the
lockout
blocks) and moving the
red reverser
lever
on the right handlebar backs up the unit. Gear #3
(#4 for 948) is too fast for backing up the unit.
