Stopping Tractor
FIG. 30: To stop the tractor with a regular gear trans-
mission, move the throttle lever (1) forward, to reduce
engine speed and slow travel. Depress the clutch pedal
(2) and brake pedal (3) to stop. Position the gearshift
lever (4) in the neutral position. Latch the brake pedals
together, depress the pedals firmly and set the parking
brake (5). Allow the engine to idle several minutes to
allow even cooling, then turn the main switch to the "off"
position shutting off the engine. Lower the three-point
hitch and remove the main switch key.
CAUTION: Before leaving the tractor unat-
tended, make sure parking brakes are
applied, rear mounted implement is lowered
to the ground and the key is removed from
the ignition switch.
FIG. 31: Always park the tractor on level ground
whenever possible. If hillside parking is necessary,
securely block both rear wheels as shown.
