DRIVING OPERATION
THE PRINCIPLES OF APPROPRIATE USE OF TRACTORS
The listed principles for tractor´s operation serve for facilitating the operation and
guarantee corresponding service life of travel clutch!
THE DESCRIPTION OF THE SYSTEM OF TRAVEL CLUTCHES
The tractor is equipped with two individual travel clutches, one for travelling forward and one for travelling backward.
The selection of the driving direction and also the choice of a specific travel clutch is done by shifting the reversing lever under the
steering wheel from neutral position to the position forward or backward.
THE WAY OF CONTROLLING THE TRAVEL CLUTCH BY
1 - Reversing lever
2 - Clutch control button on the head of reversing lever
3 - Clutch pedal
THE DIFFERENCES IN WAYS OF CONTROLLING THE TRAVEL CLUTCH BY
1 - Reversing lever
This way of control has automatic start function.
When shifting the reversing lever to neutral position, there is release of travel clutch
When shifting the reversing lever to the forward or backward position, there is a switch of travel clutch and subsequent smooth
dead start of the tractor in the direction defined by reversing lever.
The speed of switch of travel clutch and the smoothness of dead start is controlled by a controlling unit on the basis of
information saved in calibration and the operators cannot influence it.
Automatic dead start function is sparing to travel clutches than the control of travel clutches by clutch pedal,
therefore use the ways of controlling travel clutch with the function of automatic dead start for the regular opera-
tion of tractor with dead start, gear shifting or the change of the driving direction.
