Driving The Tractor
WARNING: Avoid sudden

Do not leave
the seat of the tractor with-
out disengaging the PTO
and engaging the parking
brake. If leaving the tractor
unattended, turn the ignition
key off and remove key.
• Depress the brake pedal to release
the parking brake and let the pedal
up. Move the throttle lever to the
position where the engine operates
best for the load to be handled
(normally full throttle).
NOTE: Do not use the forward or
reverse control pedals to change the
direction of travel when the tractor is in
motion. Use the brake pedal to bring the
tractor to a stop before depressing either
the forward or reverse control pedal.
• To move forward, slowly depress
the forward control pedal until the
desired speed is achieved.
• To move in reverse, check that the
area behind is clear then slowly
depress the reverse control pedal.
Always look down and behind

Setting The Cruise Control
NOTE: The cruise control feature
can only be operated in the forward
direction.
• Slowly depress the forward control
pedal until the desired speed is
achieved.
• Lightly push the cruise control lever
downward.
• While continuing to hold the cruise
lever down, lift your foot from the
forward control pedal (you should
feel the cruise latch engage).
• If properly engaged, the cruise lever
and forward control pedal should
lock in the down position, and the
tractor will maintain the same
forward speed.
• Disengage the cruise control using
one of the following methods:
- Depress the brake pedal to
disengage the cruise control
and stop the tractor.
- Lightly depress the forward control
pedal.
- Lift the cruise control lever upward.
NOTE: Although not recommended,
depressing the reverse pedal will also

To change to the reverse direction
when operating with cruise control,
depress the brake pedal to disengage
the cruise control and stop the tractor;
then depress the reverse control pedal.
