Driving Downhill; Operation Of The Diff Lock; Check During Driving; Oil Pressure Light - Zetor UTILIX CL Operator's Manual

Driving downhill

Use the engine's ability to brake when traveling downhill.
Never rely on the brakes only and never travel downhill with the gears in neutral.
Caution:
When operating in hilly terrain the risk of the rollover is increased substantially, please drive with
extra care.
When towing trailers in hilly terrain ensure that they are equipped with brakes, use a lower gear to
get maximum engine braking and do not change gears on a down hill run.

Operation of the diff lock

While the diff lock is a very useful feature, care should be taken in its use as misuse can lead to dangerous
situations.
The diff lock would only be used in situations where traction is lost on one of the rear wheels.
Warning:
Use low engine revolutions when using the diff lock.
If the diff lock does not release after removing the foot from the pedal use the left and right brake
pedals in turn to release it.
Do not try to engage or use the diff lock on tight turns as serious damage can result.

Check during driving

Constantly monitor the warning lights on the dash and if any comes on stop the tractor to determine the
cause.

Oil pressure light

If the oil pressure light comes on check the oil level first of
all.
If the oil level is OK ask a qualified dealer to check the
reason for the light coming on.

Battery charging

If the alternator warning light comes on check all
connections and ensure that the fan belt is not broken.
If all connections and the fan belt are intact consult your
dealer to determine the cause of the problem.
