BREAK – IN PERIOD
As with a new car your new tractor should receive
special attention. In the first few hours of operation
it is best to vary the engine speed between 3/4 and
full throttle .. avoid full - throttle driving, quick
starts and stops until you've become well acquainted
with your tractor. IMPORTANT: THE TRACTOR IS
SHIPPED FROM THE FACTORY WITHOUT OIL IN
THE ENGINE CRANKCASE. SEE LUBRICATION
GUIDE, PAGE 9 AND ENCLOSED ENGINE FOLDER,
FOR PROPER GRADE OIL AND QUANTITY TO BE
USED.
For your satisfaction:
Both the tractor and engine have been tested by
the factory and your dealer prior to its delivery.
However, so that you may become familiar with your
unit before operating it, READ THIS MANUAL care-
fully ... if you have any questions that are not an-
swered in the manual, ask your dealer.

INSTRUMENTS AND CONTROLS

For efficient operation of the tractor, study the ac-
companying illustrations (Figure 4), together with the

brief descriptions given here, until you are thor-
oughly familiar with the location and function of each
control.
1. GEAR SHIFT LEVER - 3 speeds ahead, 1 in re-
verse. See instructions on page 8.
2. TWO SPEED RANGE LEVER - Provides a
total of 6 speeds ahead, 2 in reverse from less than 3/4
mph to 6 mph. See instructions on page 8.
3. PTO (POWER TAKE OFF) CLUTCH - Always
be sure to lock lever in slots provided when P.T.O.

4. THROTTLE - Turn knob counterclockwise to un-
lock. Pull out to increase engine speed, push in to
decrease. Turn knob clockwise to lock at desired
RPM.
Do not operate tractor below half throttle for
prolonged periods of time under load.
5. CLUTCH-BRAKE PEDAL - To shift gears, de-
press clutch pedal fully. This disengages the clutch,
and fully applies the brake. Relax brake tension slightly,
and shift gears.
Never allow gears to clash while shifting.
Hasty shifting will result in gear grinding and
premature gear failure.
