OPERATION
10.2 Brake and Differential Lock Setting
Make sure the tractor brakes are in good operating
condition. Tractor brakes can be set to operate
independently allowing single rear wheel braking
action or locked together to provide simultaneous
rear wheel braking. FOR MOST DRIVING AND
OPERATING CONDITIONS, THE BRAKE PEDALS
SHOULD BE LOCKED TOGETHER TO PROVIDE
THE MOST EFFECTIVE BRAKING ACTION.
Always disengage the tractor differential lock when
turning. When engaged the differential lock will
prevent or limit the tractor from turning. During
normal cutting conditions, locking the differential
provides no benefit and should not be used. OPS-U- 0013
Be aware of the operating conditions. Do not operate the Tractor with weak or faulty brakes.
When operating down a hill or on wet or rain slick roads, the braking distance increases; use
extreme care and reduce your speed in these conditions. When operating in traffic, always use the Tractor’s
flashing warning lights and reduce your speed. Be aware of traffic around you and watch out for the other guy.
10.3 Raising the Mower
Using the tractor 3-point hitch control lever-lift type
or hydraulic remote lever-pull and semi-mount
type, raise the mower high enough to clear all
ground obstacles. When raising the mower, make
sure all connection points are securely attached
and at least 1” clearance is maintained between the
driveline and the deck. If necessary, place an
upper lift stop on the 3-point hitch control lever to
limit the height the mower can be raised to avoid
driveline damage.
