Operation Instruction
27
IMPORTANT ISSUES:
1.
When running the engine, step on the main clutch pedal prior to shifting and wait for several seconds
before shifting to prevent improper clutch engagement and damage to the transmission.
2.
Always step on the clutch pedal when shifting any of the three gear shifts.
3.
Reverse cannot be engaged until the tractor is fully stopped as doing so can damage the gears.
4.
When the tractor is running, never place your hand on the shift lever. The pressure of your hand can be
transmitted to gear shift fork in the transmission, causing the fork to wear.
2.9 Differential Lock Operation
If the tractor should become stuck or should one rear drive wheel
slip, you can lock the differential and connect the right and left rear
drive axles.
1.
Step on main clutch pedal, and shift the high/low shift lever into
the forward low (F
L
) range.
2.
Shift the range shift lever into low (L).
3.
Move the throttle control lever to the high speed position.
4.
Step on the differential pedal to engage it.
5.
Release the clutch pedal smoothly for stable operation.
6. After getting unstuck or stopping the skid, the differential lock will automatically release.
IMPORTANT ISSUES
:
When the tractor is running on normal surfaces, never use the differential lock.
This will help you avoid damage to components and reduce tire wear.
2.10 How to Use the Front Axle Drive
The NorTrac 82XTC 4-wheel drive tractor can be used for normal operations in the field and on wet and soft
soil. If only the rear wheels drive the tractor, the vehicle traction may not be enough for heavy-duty operation.
The front axle drive can be used to increase the traction and decrease slipping, improving the tractor’s
performance. In order to engage and release the front drive axle, use the following operational sequence.
Connecting the Front Axle Drive
Step on the main clutch pedal, engage the tractor in gear, and then release the clutch pedal slowly. After the
tractor moves a little, immediately pull the front drive axle control handle backward to change the two-wheel
drive into four-wheel drive.
