DRIVING THE TRACTOR
(International Cub Cadet 105 and 125 Tractors)
BRAKE PEDAL
the tractor
is used to hold the rotary
tiller
back rather
than to pull the unit, as in plow-
ing or mowing.
The
brake
pedal
must
be pressed
all the
way
down
to activate
the
safety
starting
switch.
When
the brake
pedal
is
in the depressed
posi-
tion
it automatically
moves
the
speed
control
lever
to the
"Nil
position.
4. Move the speed control lever back to a
position to maintain proper mulching
of the
soil.
The tractor
can be stopped
either
by
pressing
the pedal all the way down,
or placing
the speed control
lever
in the I'NII position.
5. With a hydrostatic
drive,
it may be nec-
essary
to vary the speed control
lever
as
the soil conditions
vary.
With a gear drive
tractor,
under
similar
conditions,
it may be
necessary
to de clutch
or to use the brake.
LOCKING THE BRAKE
Always
lock the brake
when dismounting
from
the tractor.
To lock the brake,

down on the brake
pedal; .then place the brake

This
lever
is used to select
any speeds
