Starting movement with high traction
load (e.g., with a plough deep in soil)
should be avoided. With the gear in
mesh, release the parking brake and
ease off on the clutch pedal. With the
tractor moving off, smoothly increase fuel
supply.

To bring the tractor in motion, proceed as
follows:
• slow down the engine;
• step on the clutch pedal as far as it will
go and select a required GB speed
range; to do this:
• move the lever (4) to one of the fol-
lowing positions: “A”, “B” or “R”, in
accordance with range selection
pattern diagram I;
• press the pushbutton (1) to engage
the lowest stage (L) of the GB re-
duction gear or the pushbutton (2)
to switch on highest stage (H) of
the GB reduction gear;
• choose the required gear by shifting
the speed lever (3) from its neutral
“N” to one of the following positions:
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 in accordance with
shift pattern diagram “II”;
• release the parking brake and ease
up the clutch pedal smoothly while
increasing simultaneously the en-
gine rotational speed. The tractor
will start to move.
IMPORTANT! To avoid noisy change-
over, shift the range select lever (4) when
the tractor is at complete standstill only.
When driving the tractor, DO NOT keep
your foot on the clutch pedal, since this
would cause clutch slippage, its over-
heating and failure.
IMPORTANT! The engagement of the
reduction gear stages “L” or “H” is only
possible when the gear-shift lever (3)
is placed to its neutral position.
IMPORTANT! To shift in the gear
smoothly (without abrupt jerks), move
the gear-shift lever (3) in accordance
with diagram II and hold it in this posi-
tion with slight pressure until the gear
is in full mesh.
ATTENTION!
Prior to setting the re-
quired speed range or to shifting in the
gear in the GB, make sure that you
have stepped on the clutch pedal.
