OPERATING THE HYDROSTATIC
TRANSMISSION AND PTO
HYDROSTATIC TRANSMISSION
The hydrostatic transmission is controlled by the
HST foot pedals A, cruise control switch B,
and range selector lever C.
When operating the range selector lever, place
the HST foot pedals in the neutral position. If it
is difficult to engage, slightly depress the
Forward or Reverse foot pedal for smooth
engagement.
Never engage or disengage the shift lever when
the unit is in motion.
With the shift lever in“H”range, ground speed
can be varied from zero to maximum by
depressing the forward or reverse travel pedal.
In “L” range, speeds are about 60% of “H”
range. Maximum speeds in reverse are about a
65% of maximum forward speeds.
To stop the unit, release the pedal gradually
(except on an emergency). When release, the
pedal returns to the Neutral position
automatically, stopping the unit. Sudden release
can result in an abrupt, and possible dangerous
stop.
For prolonged operation at a fixed forward
speed, use the forward travel pedal to attain the
desired speed, then move the cruise control
switch to the“ON” position. Speed will remain at
the set value when the pedal is released.
To cancel the speed setting or stop, push the
switch to the“OFF”position.
