Emergency Engine Stop Procedure
While this is very rare, if the Fuel Cut-Off
fails to stop the fuel, the engine could
continue to operate. In the event of an engine
continuing to run, you will need to stop the
engine in another way. Rotate the Hand
Throttle to the lowest speed; put the tractor in
neutral with the brakes set. It is
recommended that you open the hood of the
tractor and place an obstruction over the air
inlet located on the air filter unit. Cutting off
the air completely will stop the engine.
4. Operating the Tractor
After the tractor starts for the first time in a day, let it run in neutral with the parking brake on for at least 5
minutes. At this point you can begin to move the tractor around and do light work with the tractor. Do not
begin to do heavy work until the water temperature gage (#13) approaches 60-70 degrees Celsius.
Before moving the tractor be sure to raise any implement which is resting on the ground (or on a trailer).
Release the Parking Brake Lock if it is set (put your foot on the Brake Pedals if needed to prevent the tractor
from rolling).
To move the tractor depress the clutch and shift into gear; increase engine speed by pressing on foot throttle
pedal and release clutch slowly/smoothly to proceed forward or backward. Do Not Ride the Clutch:
When
operating do not
keep the Clutch partially engaged to control your speed as this wears out the Clutch (this can
happen in a matter of hours). Instead choose the proper gear for the work you are doing.
To stop either forward or backward motion of the tractor, push in the Clutch (shift to neutral) and push the
Brake Pedals. (Note: tractor brakes will not work efficiently unless clutch is depressed.)
5. In-active Tractor
When the tractor is turned off and put away for the day, for a week, or for a month there are some things which
should be considered. While there is not an official list, the following items are some to consider.
Make sure the Key is “OFF.”
Park the tractor on level ground whenever possible. This should make starting easier.
If the next time the tractor will be started may require the tractor heater to be plugged in, is your parking space
near enough to an electrical outlet?
Cover the Air Intake in case of emergency!
