WARNING
To avoid personal injury or death:
• Be sure to observe the PTO shaft speed
prescribed for the individual implements. It is
extremely dangerous to run an implement at
high speed that is meant to be operated at low
speed. Use only when this higher rpm is
specifically recommended by the implement
manufacturer.
Choose from the following 4 PTO operating modes
according to the type of implement or the workload.
1. Set the mode selector lever to the
“NORMAL” mode
for general work and the “ECONOMY” mode for
light-duty work only.
In the ECONOMY mode, the engine runs at low
speed, 540 or 1000 rpm, for energy-saving
operation.
2. Using the PTO gear shift lever, select a speed to
suit the implement in use.
