satoh Buck S-470D - Clutch; Brake

CLUTCH
Depress the clutch pedal fully to bring the machine to a complete halt
when shifting the gear in the transmission for changing the machine
propelling speed. For shifting the PTO gears and shifting the 4-WD gear
follow the similar manner.
Lowering the speed, when the tractor is overloaded, by half engaging the
clutch or changing gear at high speed will damage the clutch lining.
De-clutching must be performed completely in one clean quick move-
ment with the engine revs. lowered as much as possi ble.
NOTE: __________________________________________ __
When the tractor is not used, the clutch should be disengaged by de-
pressing the clutch pedal and the clutch lever should be hooked so that
clutch linings will not get stuck.
BRAKE
The brake on SATOH tractors model S-470 & S-470D is of internal
expansion type and is dirt-and water-proof.
There are two pedals provided on the right side of the transmission case
which are interlocked by a locking plate. The brake is applied by depres-
sing these pedals. To stop the tractor, lower the engine revolutions,
depress the clutch pedal and then the brake pedal. To shorten the
braking distance, lower the engine revolutions quickly, depress the brake
pedal and then the clutch pedal just before the engi ne stops.
For turning in a confined space the right and left axles can be braked
independently by removing the locking plate interlocking the right and
left brake pedals. When travelling at high speed or on roads make sure
that the right and left brake pedals are interlocked by means of the lock-
ing plate.
