Control Levers and Pedals (Gear

Drive)

1. ACCELERATOR PEDAL

Use this pedal when operating the tractor on the road. Push the pedal down to increase engine speed.

NOTE : The engine speed control level must be set to give the slowest engine speed when the throttle pedal is used.

2.BRAKE PEDALS — The brake pedals when locked together, provides braking to both rear wheels for stopping the tractor. When the brake pedals are unlocked, the pedals are used for individual braking of the rear wheels to aid in turning the tractor in soft soil conditions. Push the RH brake pedal down to slow or stop the RH rear tractor wheel, push the LH brake pedal down to slow or stop the LH rear wheel. The tractor will turn in the direction of the wheel that is slowed or stopped.

3.BRAKE PEDAL LOCK – The brake pedal lock is located at the brake pedal arms and is used to lock the two brake pedals together so that both brakes are applied.

CAUTION: Brake pedals must be locked together for road travel. This will insure uniform brake application and maximum stopping ability.

WARNING: Extra weight and bad traction conditions such as mud or ice increase your stopping distance. Remember that liquid in the tires, weights on the machine or wheels, tanks filled with fertilizer, herbicides or insecticides - all these add weight and increase the distance you need in which to stop.
