INDEPENDENT PTO
The independent PTO mode is used for
normal PTO operations. It operates con-
tinuously at a constant speed, indepen-
d e n t o f t h e t r a n s m i s s i o n s p e e d
selections. The PTO shaft turns in a
clockwise direction (as viewed from the
rear of the tractor).
GROUND SPEED PTO
The PTO speed will be proportional to
the tractor speed. The PTO shaft will stop
when the tractor is stopped. It is impor-
tant to note the PTO shaft will rotate in
the opposite direction when the tractor
is in reverse.
When parking, be sure to set the parking
brake.
To set the parking brake;
1) Interlock the brake pedals.
2) Depress the brake pedals.
3) latch the brake pedals with the park-
ing brake lever.
