Differential Lock Pedal
A—Differential Lock Pedal
CAUTION: DO NOT operate tractor at high
speed or attempt to turn with differential lock
engaged.
IMPORTANT: To prevent damage to drive train, DO
NOT engage differential lock when one
wheel is spinning and the other is
completely stopped.
When one wheel starts to lose traction, engage differential
lock by depressing pedal (A) down.
Unequal traction will keep the lock engaged. When
traction equalizes, lock will disengage itself by spring
action. If lock does not disengage, depress one brake
pedal and then the other.
If tyres repeatedly slip, then get traction, then slip again,
hold pedal in the engaged position.
