TRANSMISSION SHIFT LEVER AND CONTROLS
(HST type)
One shift lever is used to select a range of ground travel
speed through different gear reductions within the drive
train. A hydrostatic control unit (using a control pedal)
allows infinitely variable speeds, from zero to top speed, in
each range.
FIG. 4-53: Range Shift Lever, 1. Located to the left of the
operator’s seat, range lever provides three major speed
changes.
IMPORTANT: Tractor must be completely stopped when
shifting.
Hydrostatic Control Pedal, 2. Located on the right side of
the platform and it actuates the hydrostatic unit in forward
or reverse travel direction.
Depressing the forward portion of the pedal moves Tractor
forward, depressing the rearward portion of the pedal
moves Tractor rearward. As each movement is progres-
sively depressed, a corresponding increase in ground
speed of Tractor will be noticed in the appropriate direction.
Returning pedal towards spring-loaded neutral position, will
slow Tractor and stop it when neutral position is reached.
When pedal is completely released, Tractor should remain
stopped with the pedal assembly in neutral position.
Cruise Control Lever, 3. Located on the left side the
steering wheel. This lever actuates hydrostatic control unit
for forward travel only. Move forward pedal down until
desired forward speed is achieved, then move cruise con-
trol lever rearward to hold this speed. Move lever forward
to slow down and stop.To release cruise control lever,
move lever forward or depress brake pedals latched
together with interlock plate.
WARNING: Cruise control should only be used
in open spaces, without obstacles, with unob-
structed view or traveling on load.
Before using cruise control lever, be make
sure to set brake pedals to be latched together
with interlocking plate.
If one brake is depressed to release cruise
control,
cruise control would not be released.
You should be thoroughly familiar with releasing cruise
control. See operation section.
NOTE: Do not move cruise control lever without first mov-
ing the Hydrostatic control pedal downward in the
forward position, to prevent mechanical failures.
Do not use cruise control lever in reverse direc-
tion.
