Note: You will need to move the levers rearward to
engage or disengage the loader valve lock.

Auxiliary Hydraulics Lever
To operate a hydraulic attachment in forward direction,
slowly pull the auxiliary hydraulics lever rearward.
To operate a hydraulic attachment in reverse direction,
slowly push the auxiliary hydraulics lever forward. This is
also called the detent position because it does not require
operator presence.
Speed Selector Lever
Move the speed selector lever to the fast (rabbit) position
to set the traction drive, loader arms, and attachment tilt to
high speed and the auxiliary hydraulics to low speed.
Move the speed selector lever to the slow (turtle) position
to set the auxiliary hydraulics to high speed and the
traction drive, loader arms, and attachment tilt to low
speed.
If you move the speed selector lever while the
traction unit is in motion, the traction unit will
either stop suddenly or accelerate quickly. If you
operate the traction unit with the speed selector
lever in an intermediate position, the traction unit
will operate erratically and may be damaged. You
could lose control of the traction unit and injure
bystanders or yourself.
•
Do not move the speed selector lever when the
traction unit is in motion.
•
Do not operate the traction unit when the speed
selector is in any intermediate position (i.e., any
position other than fully forward or fully
rearward).
Warning
Hour Meter/Tachometer
When the engine is off, the hour meter/tachometer
displays the number of hours of operation that have been
logged on the traction unit. When the engine is running, it
displays the speed of the engine in revolutions per minute
(rpm).
After 50 hours and then every 100 hours thereafter (that is
at 150, 250, 350, etc.) the screen displays CHG OIL to
remind you to change the oil. After every 100 hours, the
screen displays SVC to remind you to perform the other
maintenance procedures based on a 100, 200, or 400 hour
schedule. These reminders come on starting three hours
prior to the service interval time and flash at regular
intervals for six hours.
Flow Divider Control
The traction unit hydraulics (i.e., the traction drive, loader
arms, and attachment tilt) work on a separate hydraulic
circuit from the auxiliary hydraulics for powering
attachments; however, the two systems share the same
hydraulic pumps. Using the flow divider control (Fig. 12),
you can vary the speed of the traction unit hydraulics by
diverting hydraulic flow to the auxiliary hydraulics
circuit. The flow divider allows you to divide the flow of
fluid in varying degrees to slow the traction unit. Thus,
the more hydraulic flow you divert to the auxiliary
hydraulics, the slower the traction unit will move.

•
Move the flow divider control to the twelve o’clock
position to provide maximum speed to the traction
unit.
Use this setting for fast operation of the traction unit.
•
Move the flow divider control between the twelve
o’clock and nine o’clock positions to slow the traction
unit and fine tune the speed.
Use a setting in this range with attachments with
hydraulics where you need to both run the attachment
and move the traction unit hydraulics, such as the
auger, boring unit, hydraulic blade, and tiller.
