10. DRIVING THE TRACTOR AND IMPLEMENT
Start off driving at a slow speed and gradually increase your speed while maintaining complete control of the
tractor and implement. Moving slowly at first will also prevent the tractor from rearing up and loss of steering
control. The tractor should never be operated at speeds that cannot be safely handled or which will prevent the
operator from stopping quickly during an emergency. If the power steering or engine ceases operating, stop
the tractor immediately as the tractor will be difficult to control.
Drive the tractor with the 3-Point lift arms in the raised position and lock the control lever in the transport detent
position to prevent damage to the implement driveline and tongue when turning.
Perform turns with the tractor and implement at slow speeds to determine how the tractor with an attached
cutter handles a turn. Determine the safe speed to maintain proper control of the tractor when making turns.
When turning with a towed implement, the overall working length of the unit is increased. Allow additional
clearance for the implement when turning, especially if the wings are lowered.
To avoid overturns, drive the tractor with care and at safe speeds, especially when operating over rough
ground, crossing ditches or slopes, and turning corners. Tractor wheel tread spacing should be increased
when working on inclines or rough ground to reduce the possibility of tipping.
Use extreme caution when operating on steep slopes. Keep the tractor in a low gear when going downhill. DO
NOT coast or free-wheel downhill.
Be sure to never operate the cutter with the PTO
storage support in its upright position. Swing the
support down, and out of the way before beginning.
Use extreme care when lowering or unfolding the implement’s wings. Make sure no
bystanders are close by or underneath the wings. Allow ample clearance around the
implement when folding or unfolding the wings. Use extreme caution around buildings or
overhead power lines.
(S3PT-05)
Never run the Tractor engine in a closed building or without adequate ventilation. The
exhaust fumes can be hazardous to your health.
