Safe Use; Using The Tractor - New Holland TL70 Operator's Manual

USING THE TRACTOR

J Select the most suitable wheel setting for the work
in hand, i.e.: the setting that provides the best stability.
J Engage the clutch slowly: if engaged too quickly,
especially when the tractor is getting out of a hole,
ditch or operating on muddy ground or steep slopes,
the tractor may overturn.
Release the clutch immediately if the front wheels start
to lift.
J When travelling downhill, keep the tractor in gear.
Never release the clutch and never leave the gears
in neutral.
