Operation Description
25
Select the speed of the tractor based on the type of work being done in order to prolong the life of the
engine and various parts. Only by doing so will you be able to get the best performance out of the tractor
and the most longevity.
When using the tractor for heavy work, remember to never push the tractor beyond its limits. Read and
understand the specific workload capacities and under cut them by 80% for ma ximum performance
and longevity. Speed of operation should be an important factor in this equation.
When doing light duty at low speeds, high gear can be used in order to save on fuel economy.

tractor is running. Pressure on the gearshift fork can cause it to wear prematurely.
