FEATURES AND CONTROLS
Joystick Lock Switch
The joystick lockout switch (Item 4) is used to active or lock-
out the joystick functions. The joystick should be lockout
when no attachments are installed. This will keep the joystick
from accidentally being activated. See Page 44.
Tilt Lock Switch
The tilt lockout switch (Item 5) locks out the tilt function. See
Page 44.
Tip: When operating PTO driven attachments, the tilt lockout switch
will automatically activate. Using the attachment with the tilt
locked out will limit the possibility of tilting the attachment while
the PTO shaft is turning and putting stress on the PTO driveline
u-joints. Before engaging the PTO system, tilt the attachment to
the desired operating position. See your attachment Owner's
Manual for detailed information.
Front Auxiliary Hydraulic Switch
The front auxiliary hydraulic switch (Item 6) controls hydrau-
lic flow to the front male and female coupler for attachment
operation. See Page 45.
