A. Clutch Pedal
When the clutch pedal is fully depressed, the tractor’s
drive clutch is disengaged. Fully and rapidly depress
the clutch pedal before shifting the main shift lever,
the Hi-Lo Range lever, or the forward/reverse shift
lever. Gradually release the clutch pedal after shifting.
IMPORTANT: The clutch pedal should be rapidly
depressed, but slowly and evenly released to prevent
damage to the clutch plates. Never operate the
tractor with your foot resting on the clutch pedal.
Doing so may contribute to premature clutch wear.
B. Brake Pedals (Right and Left)
• The right (outer) brake pedal engages only the
right brake assembly. Refer to Figure 12.
• The left (inner) brake pedal engages only the left
brake assembly. Refer to Figure 12.
Use the individual brake pedals to assist in making
sharp turns while operating the tractor in the field.
Depress the brake pedal corresponding to the
direction of the turn.
WARNING: Always lock the brake pedals
together before driving the tractor on
roadways or at high transport speeds.
Engaging only one brake under these
operating conditions could cause a
dangerous accident.
