Differential Lock
Cable Adjustment
(Select Models)
1. Stop the tractor, shut off the PTO, turn off the engine,
remove the key, and engage the parking brake.
2. Check the position of the diff. lock pedal. The top of
the pedal should be even with the top of the frame
tunnel as shown in Figure 41. Also check the diff.
lock cable. With the pedal at rest there should be no
tension on the cable except the weight of the pedal. If
required, adjust the pedal as follows.
3. Loosen the adjustment nuts (A, Figure 42) and move
the cable sheath until the pedal is at the proper height
(See Figure 41).
4. Tighten the adjustment nuts, and repeat step 2.

Do not allow dirt, water, or other debris to
enter the expansion chamber or
transmission. Even a small amount of dirt
can damage the transmission
Check Transmission Oil Level
Service Interval: Every 5 Hours
NOTE: Lift cylinder should be extended.
1. Locate the clear tube (C, Figure 44) and expansion
chamber (D) under the seat deck. Using a flashlight,
observe the oil level in the clear tube. 1ā of oil should
be visible in the clear tube. DO NOT OVERFILL.
Empty space is required in the tube and expansion
chamber for heat expansion.
2. If necessary, remove the plug from the seat deck
(Figure 43), clean the area surrounding the expansion
chamber (D, Figure 44), remove the cap, and add oil.

will partially engage the differential lock and
damage the transmission. There must be a
small amount of slack in the cable
