Stopping The Tractor, Opening Tool Box | Cub Cadet 3184 instruction

Before operating the tractor on any slope, walk the slope to look for possible hazards such as rocks. mounds, ruts, stumps or other surface irregularities which could cause the tractor to be upset.

Back the tractor with attachment up the steepest portion of each slope you intend to work. If the tractor cannot negotiate the slope in reverse, the slope is too steep to be worked.

Avoid turns when driving on a slope. If a turn must be made, turn down the slope. Turning up a slope greatly increases the chance of a roll over.

Avoid stopping when driving up a slope. If it is necessary to stop while driving up a slope, start up smoothly and carefully to reduce the possibility of flipping the tractor over backward.

Stopping The Tractor

Fully depress the brake pedal to bring the tractor to a complete stop, engage the parking brake, disengage the PTO, turn the ignition switch to “OFF’” and remove the key from the switch before dismounting.

Using the Hydraulic Lift System

To raise an attachment using the hydraulic lift system, the engine must be running. Generally, an attachment can be lowered with the engine running or off. Push the hydraulic lift lever forward to lower an attachment or pull the hydraulic lift lever back to raise an attachment.

Opening Tool Box

A convenient tool box and manual pouch is located under the seat. To access this area, pivot the seat forward.

Engaging The PTO

•Move the throttle control lever to approximately the mid throttle position.

•Pull the PTO switch to the “RUN” position.

•Advance the throttle lever to the operating speed (full engine speed).

•The operator must remain in the tractor seat at all times. If the operator should leave the seat without turning off the PTO switch, the tractor’s engine will shut off.

IMPORTANT: The PTO clutch cannot be operated when the tractor is driving in the reverse direction. The PTO switch must in the “OFF” position when the reverse control pedal is depressed, or the PTO clutch will automatically disengage. To re- engage the PTO clutch, release the reverse control pedal, move the PTO switch to the “OFF” position, then again pull the switch to the “RUN” position.

Using The Drawbar

Drawbar equipment must be hitched to the tractor only at the hitch hole. See Figure 11.
