Disengage PTO and place all the transmission
shift levers in NEUTRAL position.
z
Lower the mounted implements on the ground.
z
Apply parking brake.
z
Stop engine and remove ignition key.
z
Before you leave the operator’s station, wait for
engine and all moving parts to stop.
z
Have to apply the wheel chocks when parking
the tractor on a slope unavoidably.
▶
If it is necessary to park the tractor on a slope, furthermore with loaded trailer, the
tractor may roll down, even though the parking brake is applied. In this case, apply
all the gears in lowest speed and apply chocks or blocks to all the tires.

⇒
reverse 1 gear / upward slope
⇒
forward 1 gear.
- HST type : Apply the lowest gear of the range gear lever.
Caution
Turbocharger
(7) Handling the Turbocharger
(if fitted)
z
Before accelerating or working the tractor fitted
with the turbocharger, allow the engine to idle at
1000 rpm for about 30 seconds to ensure that
the turbocharger is correctly lubricated.
z
Before stopping engine fitted with the
turbocharger, allow the engine to idle at low rpm
for several minutes. This allows the turbocharger
and manifold to cool, preventing deformation of
the components.
z
After stopping engine fitted with the turbocharger,
cover the exhaust tail pipe to prevent the
turbocharger rotating in the wind, resulting in
possible damage to the bearings. The
turbocharger turbine must be prevented from
rotating freely with the engine off, as the shaft
bearings will not be lubricated.
