Operating Instructions, Controls
Seat Adjustment
(Fig. 1)
The seat on your tractor is adjustable forward and
backward to suit the operator. Simply lift the seat
latch at the side of the seat and slide the seat
forward or backward as appropriate. Always ensure
the seat is latched back into position before driving
off.
Choke
(Fig. 2)
An independent choke is fitted to some models.
This choke should be used in conjunction with a fast
throttle setting when starting the engine from cold. It
should be cancelled as soon as possible. Do not use
the choke when starting a warm engine.
Ignition
(Figs. 3, 6 & 11)
The key start controls the ignition and the start
button engages the starter. The engine cannot be
started without the park brake being on; the “P”
light (Fig. 11) indicates the brake is engaged (not
applicable to the Mini). When starting your tractor
from cold, turn the key to the I position. Once the
cycle has finished press the start button to start the
Tractor. Release the button when the engine starts.
To stop the engine, turn the key to the left (having
first switched off both the cutter and Power Take-
off). To prevent unauthorised use, always remove
the key after use. THE IGNITION MUST ALWAYS
BE TURNED OFF AND LEFT FOR AT LEAST TWO
SECONDS BEFORE THE TRACTOR CAN BE RE-
STARTED.
