2. Start to move the Tractor
(1) Loosen the fixing pawl of the brake pedals.
(2) Depress the clutch pedal and put the shifting lever at the required speed.
(3) Gradually depress the throttle and raise the engine speed.
(4) Sound the horn if necessary. Be sure that nothing will obstruct the movement of the tractor.
(5) Gradually engage the clutch, thus starting the tractor.
3.Driving The Tractor
A.Selecting the speed
It will increase the productivity and the economical gains when the speed is properly chosen.
For the proper usage of the various speeds, see Table 4-1.
The 1st, 2nd and 3rd speeds can not be used for plowing and harrowing (even more so with the purpose
to get greater draft force), otherwise, the transmission system will be seriously overloaded to cause
damage of the tractor.
B. When driving, take notice of the following points:
(1) Notice frequently the readings of the meters. Water temperature gauge, normally at 70~90°C. Oil
pressure gauge, normally at 0.2~0.4MPa. Ammeter, normally at the middle or in the positive range.
Any undue readings shall be investigated and the trouble removed.
(2) Listen carefully to the engine. If there be any abnormal or knocking sound, the engine shall be
immediately stopped to the remove the abnormalities.
(3) Sharp turns can be made only when the tractor is at low speed. When the tractor is working in the
fields, particularly in the paddy fields, turn with single side braking can be made. In transportation
work, it is strictly forbidden to make single side braking to make sharp turn at high speeds.
(4) It is forbidden to continuously run the engine under overload when black fumes will come out of the
exhaust pipe.
(5)It is not permitted to rest the foot on the clutch pedal or brake pedal, nor is it permissible to drive
down-hill in the neutral gear or with the clutch disengaged. When passing over obstructions, must
decrease throttle or put the gear-shift lever to low position. It is not allowed to control the speed of
the tractor with maneuvering of the brakes fail to work, the tractor must be stopped for repairing.
(6) When the tractor is working in the paddy fields, if the front end of the tractor tends to rise up, the
clutch pedal should be immediately depressed to cut off the driving torque, thus avoiding the danger
of overturning the tractor.
