Automatic Controlled Traction
w/o 4WD
What is Automatic Controlled Traction?
Automatic Controlled Traction (ACT) is an exclusive feature of
our transmissions that provides improved traction. ACT applies
a preset amount of torque to both rear wheels even if one
starts slipping (a transmission without ACT will lose traction
completely if one rear wheel starts slipping). This preset torque
is just enough to provide additional traction, and still allow
the wheels to turn at different speeds in a tight turn without
damaging the lawn.
What to Expect from Your ACT Tractor
For the most part, while using your tractor you will not notice
ACT working, and you will simply become accustomed to
increased traction an ACT transmission provides.
Under certain circumstances the ACT system limit can be
exceeded, and one of the rear wheels may slip (for instance
if trying to turn up a hill while accelerating). This is normal. If
you start to lose traction, do not speed up. Instead, slow to
a stop, straighten the steering wheel, and slowly accelerate.
Stopping the tractor allows the transmission to regain more
traction.
12 Volt Power Outlet
The 12-volt accessory plug is located in the left side pod. It
can be used to power small electronic devices. The accessory
must be rated at 14 amps or less.
NOTE: Operating a 12-volt accessory, especially with the
engine at idle, may cause battery discharge. When not using
the accessory plug it must be covered with the rubber plug
to prevent moisture from causing a short circuit. Entrance of
water into plug can cause a short circuit.
