OPERATIONAL CONTROLS
Operation - 21
improves traction & hillside stability, aids in lifting,
reduces steering effort, and lessens the attachment
resistance when in contact with the ground. Note:
The weight transfer system is only active while the
primary S.D.L.A. is in the
fl
oat position.
The weight transfer chains determine the amount
of weight being transferred from the attachment to
the front wheels of the power unit. If no chain links
are outside the weight transfer plate, no weight will
be transferred from the attachment. The more chain
links outside the weight transfer plate, the more
weight will be transferred from the attachment.

The fuel shut-off valve controls the
fl
ow of fuel to the
power unit engine. It can be turned off to prevent
fuel leakage when changing fuel

lters or servicing
fuel system.
S.D.L.A. L
EVER
(T & U)
(Speed, Direction, Lift, and Auxiliary Control Levers)
The S.D.L.A. is the primary control for the power
unit and consists of two parts: The primary lever (T)
controls the Speed, Direction of power unit & Lift of
the hitch arms. The secondary lever (U) controls the
Auxiliary hydraulic circuit.
S
– Speed: The amount of forward or backward
movement of this lever controls the ground speed of
the power unit.
D
- Direction: The forward or backward movement of
the lever controls the direction of the power unit.
L
– Lift: The lift function of the lever has four posi-
tions: Up, Hold, Down, and Float Lock. “Hold” is the
default position; this holds the lift arms from moving
up or down. Pulling the lever to the left raises the
hitch arms. Pushing the lever to the right lowers the
hitch arms. Float position is attained by pushing the
lever to the right until the
fl
oat detent locks the lever
in place.
A
- Auxiliary: The left or right movement of the sec-
ondary lever controls the functions of attachments
that require the auxiliary hydraulic circuit. An op-
tional
fl
oat kit (part # 23.0111-7) is available for the
auxiliary circuit.
