Hand Throttle; Footbrakes - New Holland T6010 Operator's Manual

SECTION 2 - - CONTROLS, INSTRUMENTS AND OPERATION

Hand Throttle

The hand throttle (1) may be used independently of
the foot throttle to control the speed of the tractor.
Move the throttle lever forward to increase engine
speed.
IMPORTANT: Always return the hand throttle to the
idle position when using the foot throttle for road
transport applications.

Footbrakes

The brakes are actuated by the two footpedals (1)
and (2). When operating in the field they may be
unlocked and operated independently, to aid turning
in confined spaces. When independent braking is not
required, ensure both pedals are locked together to
provide normal braking.
WARNING
On four wheel drive tractors the drive to the front axle
is automatically engaged at speeds above 8.5 km/h
(4 MPH) when the brakes are applied to provide four
wheel braking. Owners should be aware of the
effectiveness of four wheel braking which greatly
enhances braking performance. Appropriate care
should be exercised during heavy braking.
IMPORTANT: Hydraulic trailer brakes will only
operate when both brakes are applied.
WARNING
For your safety, always lock the brake pedals
together when travelling at transport speeds or if a
hydraulically braked trailer is attached to the tractor.
To lock the pedals together, engage the locking pin
in the right pedal and swivel the latch (1), over the left
pedal support to lock, as shown.
