IMPORTANT:

●NEVER operate the 3-point hitch control lever before the engine has been sufficiently warmed up.

●If the 3-point hitch control lever is operated before the engine has been warmed up, the hydraulic system can be damaged or develop a failure.

●If abnormal noise occurs after the 3-point hitch has been raised, then misadjustment or failure of the hydraulic system should be suspected. Immediately stop operation, and request your local Cub Cadet Yanmar dealer to service or repair the tractor.
