DRIVING THE TRACTOR
3.
Move the speed control lever to start forward
motion. NOTE: In rotary tilling application, the
tractor is used to hold the rotary tiller back rather
than to pull the unit as in plowing or mowing.
INTERNATIONAL CUB CADET 1250, 1450,
AND 1650 TRACTORS -Continued
NOTE: Do not rest your foot on the brake pedal
while driving the tractor as this would cause the
speed control lever to return to the "N" position.
4.
Move the speed control lever back to a position
to maintain proper mulching of the soil.
SPEED CONTROL LEVER
5. With a hydrostatic drive, it may be necessary to
vary the speed control lever as the soil conditionsvary.
With a gear driven tractor, under similar
conditions it may be necessary to declutch or to
use the brake.
This lever is used to select any speed from a
standstill "N" position to eight miles per hour in
the forward direction and to four miles per hour in
the reverse direction.
RELEASE LEVER
Moving the speed control lever forward provides
increased forward speed, and moving the lever
rearward provides the reverse speeds.
Some tractors are equipped with a release lever on
the right side of the frame near the cam stop. To
push or move the tractor for a short distance, the
release lever (if so equipped) must be held in the
(UP) position and the speed control lever (on all
models) must be in the "N" position.
SPEED CONTROL LEVER STOP
An adjustable speed control lever stop is provided
to allow the operator to return to a predetermined
speed.
NOTE: Never operate engine with release lever in
(UP) position. Towing or pushing the tractor for
more than a few feet may result in transmissiondamage.
Do not bypass the speed control lever stop to
obtain a higher tractor speed. If a higher speed is
desired, reset the stop.
STARTING THE TRACTOR
1. Depress the brake pedal, release the brake lock,
and let the brake pedal up. Move the throttle lever
to the position where the engine operates best for
the load to be handled.
2.
Start the tractor in motion by moving the speed
control lever slowly forward or rearward as
described above.
STOPPING THE TRACTOR
1. Speed control lever stop
2. Speed control lever
Move the speed control lever to the "N" position
or use the brake. Before dismounting always lock
the brake pedal and turn the ignition "OFF". Also,
disengage the power take-off clutch lever.
NOTE: On tractors with a rotary tiller the
following instructions are required.
CAUTION! To prevent injury or an
accident, do not carry passengers or give
rides. Keep children, pets, and by-
standers out of the area.
1. Engage the Power Take-Off clutch, and move
the throttle to "Fast".
2. Lower the rotary tiller to the desired cutting
depth.
