TRACTOR CONTROLS
Before you begin operating the tractor with the dozer
blade attachment, make certain you have:
• Read and understood the instructions in the
tractor Operator’s Manual.
• Become thoroughly familiar with all of the
tractor controls and their operation, including
how to safely and properly start and stop the
unit.
• Practiced driving in an open area—without
dozing—to become accustomed to the unit.
A. Angling Control Lever
The angling control lever is used to change the angle of
the dozer blade.
While the engine is running, moving the lever forward
rotates the blade counterclockwise. Moving the lever
back rotates the blade clockwise.
B. Attachment Lift
The attachment lift pedals (see inset above) raise and
lower attachments such as the dozer blade.
To RAISE an attachment, depress the REAR attachment
lift pedal. To LOWER an attachment, depress the
FRONT attachment lift pedal.
C. Two-Speed Control
The two-speed control (see inset above) allows the opera-
tor to switch the transmission into high or low-speeds, and
to disengage the transmission into a NEUTRAL (free-
wheeling) position.
Select the low-speed for all Dozing work and high-
speed for travelling to and from work areas. DO NOT
SHIFT WHILE MOVING. See the Tractor Operator’s
Manual for more details.
