Starting the Tractor
The procedure to start the tractor is model specific. Refer
to the tractor operator’s manual for starting procedures
for your particular tractor. Consult an authorized dealer if
the starting procedure is unclear. Ensure the 3-point con-
trol lever is in the lowered position and the PTO is disen-
gaged before starting the tractor. OPS-U-0033
Brake and Differential Lock Setting
Make sure the tractor brakes are in good operating con-
dition. Tractor brakes can be set to operate independently
allowing single rear wheel braking action or locked to-
gether to provide simultaneous rear wheel braking. FOR
MOST DRIVING AND OPERATING CONDITIONS, THE
BRAKE PEDALS SHOULD BE LOCKED TOGETHER TO
PROVIDE THE MOST EFFECTIVE BRAKING ACTION.
Always disengage the tractor differential lock when turn-
ing. When engaged the differential lock will prevent or limit
the tractor from turning. During normal cutting conditions,
locking the differential provides no benefit and should not
be used. OPSU- 0013
Be aware of the operating conditions. Do not operate the Tractor with weak or faulty brakes. When
operating down a hill or on wet or rain slick roads, the braking distance increases; use extreme
care and reduce your speed in these conditions. When operating in traffic, always use the Tractor’s
flashing warning lights and reduce your speed. Be aware of traffic around you and watch out for
the other guy.
