3 - CONTROLS AND INSTRUMENTS
NOTICE: To prevent possible damage to the transmission
hydraulic clutches, never use the disconnect switch for
inching the machine forward. Inching the machine for-
ward with the button will cause the clutches to slip exces-
sively and overheat.
To make downward gear ratio changes or reduce ground
speed, simply lower the engine speed, depress and hold
the gearshift lever button and downshift the transmission.
When the desired gear ratio has been selected release
the button and adjust the engine speed to suit ground
speed required. Operating the machine in too high a gear
under a heavy load will cause the torque converter to slip
excessively and overheat. If engine is overloaded the

converter will slip and stall bringing the machine to a com-
plete stop. If the machine is overloaded, the engine speed
will not exceed a range of 1800 - 2200 RPM at maximum
accelerator and the torque converter will "stall", bringing
the machine to a complete stop.
If "stall" does occur, there is still sufficient engine power
to operate the loader attachment, however, to prevent the
transmission from overheating, either reduce the load on
the machine or select a lower gear ratio.
NOTICE: Operating in stalled condition for more than 20 s
can cause the transmission to overheat and possibly dam-
age the transmission. Shift both the Power- Shuttle lever
and the gearshift lever to neutral. Let the engine run at
idle until transmission oil cools down enough to have the
transmission temperature warning light go off, all opera-
tions can now be resumed.
