1. CLUTCH PEDAL - Used to temporarily
disengage drive. Use the clutch pedal when
moving the tractor short distances or when
operating in confined areas. Use the clutch
pedal to start the tractor moving from stationary.
Gradually and completely releasing the clutch
pedal for a controlled smooth start.
NOTE: DO NOT ride the clutch pedal when the
transmission is under load. Release the clutch
pedal completely within 5 seconds for improved
clutch service life.
While the tractor is moving the transmission must
always be in drive. Never allow the tractor to coast
down hill with the transmission in neutral or with the
clutch pedal depressed. To do so could result in the
operator not having full control of the tractor and
may result in personal injury.

WARNING: Extra weight and bad traction
conditions such as mud or ice increase
your stopping distance. Remember that
liquid in the tyres, weights on the tractor or
wheels, towed implements or trailers all
add weight and increase the distance you
need in which to stop.
WARNING: Brake pedals must be locked
together for road travel. This will ensure
uniform brake operation and maximum
stopping ability.
