(9.1) Starting The Tractor; (9.2) Brake And Differential Lock Setting - Schulte SRW800 Operator’s Manual With Parts Listing

DANGER!
This Implement is wider than the Tractor. Be careful when operating or transporting
this equipment to prevent the Implement from running into or striking sign posts, guard
rails, concrete abutments or other solid objects. Such an impact could cause the
Implement and Tractor to pivot violently resulting in loss of steering control, serious
injury, or even death. Never allow the Implement to contact obstacles.
9.1 Starting the Tractor
The procedure to start the tractor is model specific.
Refer to the tractor operator's manual for starting
procedures for your particular tractor. Consult an
authorized dealer if the starting procedure is unclear.
Ensure the 3-point control lever is in the lowered position
and the PTO is disengaged before starting the tractor.
9.2 Brake and Differential Lock Setting
Make sure the tractor brakes are in good operating
condition. Tractor brakes can be set to operate
independently allowing single rear wheel braking action
or locked together to provide simultaneous rear wheel
braking. FOR MOST DRIVING AND WINDROWING
CONDITIONS, THE BRAKE PEDALS SHOULD BE
LOCKED TOGETHER TO PROVIDE THE MOST
EFFECTIVE BRAKING ACTION.
WARNING!
Be aware of the operating conditions. Do not operate the Tractor with weak or faulty
brakes. When operating down a hill or on wet or rain slick roads, the braking distance
increases; use extreme care and reduce your speed in these conditions. When operating
in traffic, always use the Tractor's flashing warning lights and reduce your speed. Be
aware of traffic around you and watch out for the other guy.
Always disengage the tractor differential lock when turning. When engaged the differential lock will prevent or limit
the tractor from turning. During normal operating conditions, locking the differential provides no benefit and should
not be used.
