pletely.
12. Start moving smoothly and slowly.
Very fast acceleration may cause over-
loading of the power train, increased fuel
consumption, excessive wear of tyres
and damage of the transported load.
Only use the 1
st
gear to put the tractor in
motion when driving with a heavy trailer
uphill and in rough terrain.
When shifting individual gear
speed (1-4) or reversing (F-R)
observe the instructions for put-
ting the tractor in motion and gear
shifting in this manual. When the
tractor has been started and is
still standing, depress the clutch
pedal and wait for approx. 2 sec-
onds. Only then shift the required
gear speed or select the reverse
direction.
To increase safety and to avoid
unexpected situations use the
foot brake during the shifting as
well.
