7. Do not modify or permit anyone else to modify or alter this tractor or any of its components or functions without
first consulting a NEW HOLLAND Dealer.

not remove or attempt to adjust a pump, injector, nozzle, or any other part of the fuel injection system. Failure to
follow these instructions can result in serious injury.

10. Some components of your tractor, such as gaskets and friction surfaces (brake linings, clutch linings, etc.) may
contain asbestos. Breathing asbestos dust is dangerous to your health. You are advised to have any maintenance
or repair on such components carried out by an authorized NEW HOLLAND Dealer. However, if service operations
are to be undertaken on parts that contain asbestos, the essential precautions listed below must be observed:
•
Work out of doors or in a well ventilated area.
•
Dust found on the tractor or produced during work on the tractor should be removed by extraction, not by
blowing.
•
Dust waste should be dampened, placed in a sealed container, and marked to ensure safe disposal.
•
If any cutting, drilling, etc. is attempted on materials containing asbestos, the item should be dampened and
only hand tools or low speed power tools used.
OPERATING THE TRACTOR
1. Before starting the tractor, apply the parking brake, place the PTO lever in the ’OFF’ position, the lift control lever
in the down position, the remote control valve levers in the neutral position, and the transmission in neutral.
2. Always sit in the tractor seat when starting the engine or operating controls. Do not start the engine or operate
controls while standing beside the tractor.
3. Do not bypass the neutral start switches. Consult your NEW HOLLAND Dealer if your neutral start controls mal-
function. Use jumper cables only in the recommended manner. Improper use can result in tractor runaway.
4. Avoid accidental contact with the gear shift lever while the engine is running, as this can cause unexpected tractor
movement.
5. Before getting off the tractor, disengage the PTO, turn the engine off, and apply the parking brake. Never get off
the tractor while it is in motion.
6. Do not park the tractor on a steep incline.
7. Do not operate the tractor engine in an enclosed building without adequate ventilation. Exhaust fumes can cause
death or illness.
8. If the power steering or engine ceases operating, stop the tractor immediately.
9. Pull only from the drawbar or the lower link drawbar in the down position. Use only a drawbar pin that locks in
place. Pulling from the tractor rear axle or any point above the axle may cause the tractor to upset.
10. 1If the front end of the tractor tends to rise when heavy implements are attached to the three-point hitch, install
front end or front wheel weights. Do not operate the tractor with a light front end.
11. Always set the hydraulic selector lever in position control when attaching or transporting equipment. Ensure hy-
draulic couplers are properly mounted and will disconnect safely in case of accidental detachment of implement
12. Do not leave equipment in the raised position.
13. Use the flasher/turn signal lights and SMV signs when traveling on public roads both day and night (unless pro-
hibited by law).
14. When operating at night, adjust lights to prevent blinding oncoming drivers.
