5. BATTERY VOLTAGE INDICATOR LIGHT
The battery voltage indicator light will illuminate
when the battery voltage is low and will go out
when the battery voltage is acceptable.
It is normal for the tight to illuminate when the
tractor is first started after a period of non-use and
to glow when the tractor engine is operated at low
idle speed.
Stop the engine and have the problem corrected if
the indicator light does not go out after running the
engine at normal operating speed after a few
minutes of operation.
It is normal for the Battery Voltage Indicator Light
to remain out if the engine is stopped when the
battery is fully charged and the ignition key is
turned to the “run” position.
6. HOUR METER
The electric hourmeter records hours of operation
whenever the key is in the “RUN” position.
Utilize the hourmeter to meet the required
maintenance schedule.
7. BRAKE PEDAL
TO ACTUATE THE BRAKE: Push the brake pedal
fully down.
This action will return the travel control lever to the
“NEUTRAL” position on 4000 series tractors. The
tractor will come to a quick stop.
NOTE:
Do not use the above method if possible.
The tractor can be stopped smoothly by slowly
returning the travel control lever to the “NEUTRAL”
position on 4000 series tractors or slowly raising
the TRAVEL PEDAL on 4200 series tractors.
Actuate the brake fully if you can not stop the trac-
