1. This tractor is not equipped with a
separate parking brake. However
uses the brake pedals instead.
2. Pull the parking brake lever (2) up
with the brake pedals depressed
fully to engage the pedals with the
latch. If the braking force is insuf-
ficient, depress the pedals more
rmly.
3. Before leaving the tractor after
parking it, make sure to stop the
P.T.O lower the implement onto the
ground, and stop the engine.
4. If it is necessary to leave the tractor
with the engine running, put all the
shift levers in the neutral position
and apply the parking brake rmly.
5. When parking the tractor on a
slope, stop the engine with the
parking brake applied and engage
the low speed gear. Also, put the
shuttle shift lever into the forward
driving position on an uphill and
into the reverse driving position on
a downhill.
The brake disc can be rapidly
worn if you drive with the park-
ing brake applied.
Never park the tractor on a steep
slope in any circumstance. A
severe accident can happen.
WARNING
The tractor may move slowly
with the engine running even
though the main and shuttle
shift levers are in the neutral po-
sition. This is normal and is due
to the uid friction in the trans-
mission. This symptom can
easily occur when the engine
rpm is high, the low speed gear
is selected by the range shift
lever, and the viscosity of the
transmission uid is high due to
low temperature. To prevent this
symptom, make sure to apply
the parking brake.
Get off the tractor after check-
ing that the tractor is com-
pletely stopped and the parking
brake is rmly applied.
Do not park the tractor on tall
grass or hay. If grass or hay
touches the muffler, it can
cause re.
IMPORTANT
6. If it is necessary to park the tractor
on a slope with the engine running,
chock all four wheels (1) and per-
form Steps 3 and 4 above.
7. In order to release the parking
brake, depress the brake pedals
rmly again.
