OPERATION
The tractor is equipped with a valve lock mechanism located between the operator and control valve as shown. This feature allows the control valve to be locked during transport or when the loader is not in use to prevent accidental actuation of the control valve and loader cylinders.
To activate the lock, push the lever away from the operator, slide lever down then pull lever in towards operator.
To release the lock mechanism, push the lever away from the operator, slide lever up then pull lever in towards operator.
The lock is not intended to, and will not prevent leak down of the loader hydraulics during storage.
8. Loader Storage
Never allow children to play on or around Tractor or Implement. Children can slip or fall off the Equipment and be injured or killed. Inadvertent contact with controls can cause the Implement to shift or fall crushing themselves or others.
Properly preparing and storing the loader at the end of the season is critical to maintaining its appearance and to help ensure years of dependable service. The following are suggested storage procedures:
OPERATION
•Thoroughly clean all debris off the loader to prevent damage from rotting grass and standing water.
•Lubricate all grease points detailed in the maintenance section.
•Tighten all bolts and pins to the recommended torque.
•Check worn and damaged parts. Perform repairs and make replacements immediately so that the loader will be ready for use at the start of the next season.
•Store the loader in a clean, dry place resting securely on parking stands at ground level.
•Use spray
