A
WARNING
During
operation
do
not
run
the
engine
in
confined
area
such
as
storage
building
any
longer
than
is
necessary.
Immediately
move
the
tractor
outside
into
the
air.
A
WARNING
Operator
must
be
seated
before
starting
the
tractor.
■
^NOTE
In
cold
weather
the
starting
motor
may
disengage
prematurely.
This
is
caused
by
the
engine
firing
once
but
failing
to
continue
running.
If
this
happens
several
times,
the
engine
will
be
flooded
and
it
will
be
neces¬
sary
to
leave
the
throttle
in
the
"SLOW"
posi¬
tion
but
push
the
choke
in
all
the
way;
then
turn
the
ignition
key
to
the
"START’
position
and
slowly
pull
the
choke
out
to
the
position
which
will
cause
the
engine
to
start
and
con¬
tinue
running.
If
the
engine
falters
after
put¬
ting
tractor
into
motion,
pull
the
choke
out
part
way
until
the
engine
runs
smoothly,
then
gradually
push
the
choke
back
in
as
the
engine
warms.
15
Engine
starting
is
possible
in
cold
weather
providing
the
correct
weight
of
engine
oil
is
used,
the
battery
is
fully
charged
and
the
proper
starting
procedure
is
fol¬
lowed.
The
best
procedure
for
starting
at
tempera¬
tures
near
or
below
freezing
are
as
follows:
1.
Operator
must
be
seated.
2.
Pull
the
choke
all
the
way
out
into
the
full
choke
position.
3.
Move
the
throttle
lever
midway
between
the
"SLOW"
and
"FAST”
positions.
4.
Place
the
PTO
switch
in
the
"OFF"
position.
5.
Place
the
speed
control
lever
in
neutral
("N").
6.
Fully
depress
the
single
brake
pedal.
7.
Move
the
key
switch
into
the
"START
1
position
and
hold
until
the
engine
starts;
however,
do
not
operate
the
starter
for
more
than
10
seconds
at
any
one
time.
As
soon
as
the
engine
starts,
slowly
push
the
choke
in
part
way.
DRIVING
THE
TRACTOR
A
WARNING
When
the
engine
is
off,
the
tractor
will
become
very
difficult
to
steer.
This
is
because
the
engine
must
be
on
for
the
power
steering
to
operate.
Do
not
turn
off
engine
until
tractor
comes
to
a
complete
stop
or
damage
to
equipment
or
injury
to
persons
might
occur.
A
CAUTION
Avoid
sudden
starts,
excessive
speed
and
sudden
stops.
A
CAUTION
Do
not
leave
the
seat
of
the
tractor
without
depressing
the
single
brake
pedal
and
engaging
the
single
pedal
brake
lock.
If
leaving
the
tractor
unattended,
also
turn
the
ignition
key
off
and
remove
the
key.
■
^NOTE
Hydraulic
power
for
the
power
steering
will
take
priority
over
installed
hydraulically
driven
accessories.
■
^NOTE
When
using
power
take-off
operated
equip¬
ment,
best
performance
is
achieved
with
the
throttle
lever
in
the
"FAST"
position.
NOTE
Unless
turning
brake
pedals
are
needed
for
control
in
turning
the
tractor,
they
should
be
locked
together
at
all
times
to
provide
simul¬
taneous
braking
to
both
rear
wheels.
1.
Depress
the
single
brake
pedal,
release
the
sin¬
gle
pedal
brake
lock
and
let
the
pedal
up.
Move
the
throttle
lever
to
the
position
where
the
engine
operates
best
for
the
load
to
be
handled.
2.
Start
the
tractor
in
motion
by
moving
the
speed
control
lever
slowly
forward
or
rearward
to
desired
speed.
DRIVING
ON
SLOPES
(Refer
to
"SLOPE
GAUGE"
on
page
39
in
order
to
help
determine
slopes
where
you
may
not
operate
safely.)
A
WARNING
Do
not
mow
on
inclines
with
a
slope
in
excess
of
15
degrees
(a
rise
of
approxi¬
mately
2-1/2
feet
every
10
feet).
A
tractor
could
overturn
and
cause
serious
injury.
A
WARNING
Operate
tractor
up
and
down
slopes,
never
across
slopes.
A
CAUTION
Always
drive
up
or
down
the
face
of
a
slope.
Do
not
drive
so
that
the
tractor
may
tip
over
sideways.
Before
operating
the
tractor
on
any
slope,
walk
the
slope
to
look
for
possible
hazards
such
as
rocks,
mounds,
ruts,
stumps
or
other
surface
irregularities
which
could
cause
an
upset.
16
Back
the
tractor
with
implement
up
the
steepest
por¬
tion
of
each
slope
you
intend
to
work.
If
the
tractor
cannot
negotiate
the
slope
in
reverse,
the
slope
is
too
steep
to
be
worked.
Avoid
turns
when
driving
on
a
slope.
If
a
turn
must
be
made,
turn
down
the
slope.
Turning
up
a
slope
greatly
increases
the
chance
of
a
roll
over.
Avoid
stopping
when
driving
up
a
slope.
If
it
is
neces¬
sary
to
stop
while
driving
up
a
slope,
start
up
smoothly
and
carefully
to
reduce
the
possibility
of
flipping
the
tractor
over
backward.
STOPPING
THE
TRACTOR
A
CAUTION
Always
engage
single
pedal
brake
lock,
lower
equipment
and
shut
off
engine
before
dismounting.
Never
try
to
start
engine
from
ground.
Fully
depress
the
single
brake
pedal.
When
the
trac¬
tor
has
stopped,
make
sure
the
speed
control
lever
is
in
the
neutral
("N")
position.
Before
dismounting
always
disengage
the
PTO
switch,
engage
the
single
pedal
brake
lock
and
turn
the
ignition
"OFF".
The
turning
brake
pedals
must
be
latched
together
to
provide
braking
to
both
rear
wheels.
Latch
turning
brake
pedals
together
before
locking
single
brake
pedal.
DRAWBAR
Drawbar
equipment
must
be
hitched
to
the
tractor
only
at
the
hitch
hole
in
the
drawbar.
(See
Figure
20.)
3.
Advance
throttle
to
operating
speed
(full
speed).
4.
The
operator
must
remain
in
tractor
seat
at
all
times.
If
operator
should
leave
tractor
seat
without
turning
off
the
power
take-off
switch,
the
PTO
will
automatically
disengage.
5.
PTO
switch
must
be
in
the

(A)
position
when
shifting
the
tractor
into

or
the
PTO
will
shut
