Clutch pedal operation
The clutch pedal is used to temporarily stop sending mo-
tion to the gearbox.
Use the clutch pedal when moving the tractor over short
distances. Use the clutch pedal to start the tractor moving
from stationary. Gradually and completely releasing the
clutch pedal for a controlled smooth start.
• Pos. 1 up = drive engaged.
• Pos. 2 down = drive disengaged.
Make your gear changes gradually. When the engine is
under load, do not slip the clutch to accelerate, but change
to a lower gear.
Warning: Never keep your foot resting on the
gearshift clutch pedal when driving.
Never coast down slopes with the gear lever
in neutral.
WARNING: DO NOT ride the clutch pedal when the
transmission is under load. Release the clutch pedal
completely within 5 seconds for improved clutch
service life. While the tractor is moving the transmis-
sion must always be in drive. Never allow the tractor
to coast downhill with the transmission in neutral or
with the clutch pedal depressed. To do so could result
in the operator not having full control of the tractor
and may result in personal injury.
