Differential Lock Pedal
Located at the rear of the right floor board, the differ-
ential lock is used to gain additional traction when
operating the tractor on wet or loose soil. When the
pedal is depressed the rear wheels of the tractor are
prevented from rotating independently of one another.
See Figure 16.
Figure 16
WARNING: When operating with the
differential lock engaged, the tractor will
be difficult to steer. To prevent loss of
control of the tractor, do not drive the
tractor on roadways or at speeds above 5
MPH with the differential lock engaged.
• To engage the differential lock, lightly step on the
differential lock pedal with your heel.
• To disengage, simple release the pedal.
Hydraulic Control Levers
The hydraulic control levers, consisting of the position
control and draft control levers, are located on the
right fender. See Figure 17.
Figure 17
Use these control levers to control the working depth
and pull of implements attached to the three point
hitch as follows:
• Using Position Control — This will control the
working depth of 3-point implements regardless
of the amount of pull required. Push the draft
control lever forward to the lowest position and
set the implement working depth by moving the
position control lever to the desired position.
• Using Draft Control — This will control the pull of
the 3-point implement. As the pull on the 3-point
hitch changes due to various soil conditions, the
draft control system automatically responds to
these changes by either raising or lowering the
implement slightly to maintain a constant pull.
Push the position control lever forward to the
lowest position and set the implement pull by
moving the draft control lever to the desired
setting.
• Using Mixed Control — In draft control, when draft
decreases, the implement automatically lowers to
increase draft. However, the implement some-
times lowers too much. To limit the degree the
implement can be lowered, set the position control
lever at the lowest working depth desired for the
implement; then lower the draft control lever to the
point where the implement is at the desired depth.
This stops the implement from going too deep and
also controls the pull to prevent loss of traction and
ground speed.
Brake Pedal Lock
The brake pedal lock is located on the right brake
pedal. Flip the lock counterclockwise so it engages
the bracket on the left brake pedal to interlock both
brake pedals. See Figure 18.
