HYDROSTATIC TRANSMISSION
-H.S.T. CONTROLS (OPTIONAL)
H.S.T.FOOT PEDAL
The ground speed of tractor equipped with the
hydrostatic transmission is continuously variable,
from zero to full rated speed in each range. Speed
is controlled by the H.S.T rocker pedal on the right
side of the transmission, Figure 1 6. Depress the
forward pad on the pedal for forward travel, to the
position that provides the desired ground speed. For
reverse travel, depress the rear pad on the pedal.
Figure 16 - H.S.T. Foot Pedal
Releasing the pedal returns the transmission to
Neutral, and stops the tractor, unless the H.S.T
speed control lever is in the “LOCK” position.
H.S.T.SPEED CONTROL LEVER
The H.S.T speed control lever, Figure 17, may be
used to maintain a constant forward speed when
desired. After attaining the desired speed with the
forward pedal pad, move the lever to the “LOCK”
position, and the tractor will maintain the set speed
even if the pedal is released.
Speed may be increased temporarily by depressing
the front pedal pad, and will return to the setting
when the pedal is released.
To cancel the speed setting or stop the tractor, move
the speed control lever to the “UNLOCK” position. If
a higher or lower set speed is desired, release and
reset the lever.
The lever does not set speed when operating in
reverse, in which case releasing the rear pedal pad
returns the transmission to Neutral, stopping the
tractor.
In the interest of safety, the lever should not be put
in the “LOCK” position when operating at high
speed.
