OPERATING THE TRACTOR
44
B
Operating on Slopes and Rough Terrain
To avoid personal injury or death:
A
Always back up when going up a steep slope.
Driving forward could cause the tractor to tip
over backward. Stay off hills and slopes too
steep for safe operation.
A
Avoid changing gears when climbing or
descending a slope.
A
If operating on a slope, never disengage the
clutch or shift levers to neutral. Doing so could
cause loss of control.
A
Do not drive the tractor close to the edges of
ditches or banks which may collapse under the
weight of the tractor. Especially when the
ground is loose or wet.
1. Be sure wheel tread is adjusted to provide maximum
stability.
(See "WHEEL ADJUSTMENT" in "TIRES, WHEELS
AND BALLAST" section.)
2. Slow down for slopes, rough ground, or sharp turns,
especially when transporting heavy, rear mounted
equipment.
3. Before descending a slope, shift to a gear low enough
to control speed without using brakes.
B
Transport the Tractor Safely
1. The tractor, if damaged, must be carried on a truck.
Secure the tractor tightly with ropes.
2. Follow the instruction below when towing the tractor:
Otherwise, the tractor’s powertrain may get damaged.
A
Set the all shift levers to "NEUTRAL" position.
A
If possible, start engine and select 2WD, if creep
speed is fitted ensure that it is disengaged.
A
Tow the tractor using its front hitch or drawbar.
A
Never tow faster than "10 km/h (6.2 mph)".
B
Directions for Use of Power Steering
1. Power steering is activated only while the engine is
running. Slow engine speeds make the steering a little
heavier. While the engine is stopped, the tractor
functions in the same manner as tractors without
power steering.
2. When the steering wheel is turned all the way to the
stop, the relief valve is activated. Do not hold the
steering wheel in this position for a long period of time.
3. Avoid turning the steering wheel while the tractor is
stopped, or tires may wear out sooner.
4. The power steering mechanism makes the steering
easier. Be careful when driving on a road at high
speeds.
