Overview

This document serves as an Operator's Manual for the New Holland TT55, TT65, and TT75 Tractor models, providing comprehensive guidance for their operation and maintenance. It is designed to assist operators in safely and efficiently utilizing these agricultural tractors.

Function Description

The New Holland TT55, TT65, and TT75 tractors are designed as self-propelled power units primarily for normal and customary agricultural applications. Their core function is to provide power and mobility for various farming tasks, ranging from tilling and planting to harvesting and transport. The manual emphasizes that these tractors are built for maximum performance, economy, and ease of operation across a wide spectrum of operating conditions.

Key functional components and systems covered include:

  • Transmission: Details on transmission operation and available speeds are provided, crucial for adapting the tractor's power delivery to different tasks and terrains.
  • Power Take-Off (PTO): This essential feature allows the tractor to power a wide range of PTO-driven implements. The manual outlines operating precautions, attachment procedures, and the use of protective caps and guards, ensuring safe and effective power transfer to external machinery. Both standard and ground speed PTO operations are discussed.
  • Three-Point Linkage: This system is fundamental for attaching and controlling rear-mounted implements. The manual describes the linkage components, procedures for attaching 3-point implements, and the function of lift rods, lower links, and the top link.
  • Hydraulic System: The hydraulic system is critical for controlling implements and providing auxiliary power. The manual details position control, draft control, mixed control, float operation, and the use of the Lift-O-Matic button and height limiter. Sensitivity and response control are also covered, allowing operators to fine-tune implement behavior. Remote control valves and auxiliary hydraulic valves are also described, highlighting the tractor's versatility in powering various hydraulic tools.
  • Towing Attachments: The manual provides instructions for safe towing, emphasizing the use of appropriate hitch points and pins to prevent overturning.
