PARKING
BParking
To avoid serious injury:
Before leaving the operator's position:
A Apply parking brake.
A Lower all implements to the ground.
A Shut off the engine.
A Remove the key.
1. When parking, be sure to set the parking brake.
To apply the parking brake;
Depress the brake pedal firmly and hold it in position.
Pull and hold parking brake lever, and release the
brake pedal.
2. Before getting off the machine, disengage the PTO,
lower all implements to the ground, place all control
levers in their neutral positions, set the parking brake,
stop the engine and remove the key.
3. If it is necessary to park on an incline, be sure to chock
the wheels to prevent accidental rolling of the
machine.
TRANSPORTING
1. Do not tow this machine a long distance, or damage to
the transmission may result.
2. Transport the machine on a trailer.
A Fasten the machine to the trailer.
A Prevent the hood from opening by the wind by
securing the hood adequately. If necessary, load
the machine backward or use the stable strap.
BDirections for Use of Power Steering
1. Power steering is activated only while the engine is
running. Slow engine speeds make the steering a little
heavier. While the engine is stopped, the machine
functions in the same manner as machines without
power steering.
2. When the steering wheel is turned all the way to the
stop, the relief valve is activated. Do not hold the
steering wheel in this position for a long period of time.
3. Avoid turning the steering wheel while the machine is
stopped, or tires may wear out sooner.
4. The power steering mechanism makes the steering
easier. Be careful when driving on a road at high
speeds.
