E. Starting and running
E 3.1.1. Forward/reverse models
65---36,1
First choose the right speed range with the RH side
lever
:
H = High range
M = Low range
LL = Creeper speed range
Next, select the desired speed gear (1---4) with the
middle lever.
Finally, choose the desired driving direction with the LH
side lever.
Forward/reverse gears, range gears (except range LL)
and speed gears are synchronized and the clutch pedal
must always be used when changing gears.
When engaging the creeper range (LL) or changing driv-
ing direction, the tractor must be stationary.
The tractor has 12 gears forward and 12 reverse gears .
CAUTION: The crawling speed range can not be used
for bigger drafting force than which is reached with
Low range (M).
E 3.1.2. Overdrive models
65---36,3
First choose with the middle lever the desired speed
gear 1, 2, 3 or 4.
After this choose with the LH side lever the overdrive on
or off.
Finally, choose the desired driving direction with the
RH side lever. When starting forward it can be chosen
high (H) or low (L) range.
Changing from High to Low while the tractor is moving is
not recommended, the difference in rotation speed be-
tween the sets of gears is too great to allow a smooth
change down.
Overdrive is synchronized, so it is possible to engage or
disengage while running.
E 3.2. Powered front axle
65---36
Four---wheel drive can be operated without pressing down
the clutch pedal even when the tractor is running.
However, engaging must not be done under heavy
loading or if the rear wheels spin. Always keep a good
look-out over the running route so that four---wheel drive
can be engaged in good time before reaching difficult
stretches.
E 3.2.1. Engaging
Pull the lever to engage four---wheel drive.
E 3.2.2. Disengaging
Close the throttle slightly and press down the lever.
E 3.2.3. Running on road
Do not engage four ---wheel drive when running on the
road unless drive on the front wheels is absolutely
necessary.
Speeds in excess of 15 km/h are not allowed with 4WD if
road driving conditions are good.
