A. Clutch Pedal

When the clutch pedal is fully depressed, the tractor’s drive clutch is disengaged. Fully and rapidly depress the clutch pedal before shifting the main shift lever, the Hi-Lo Range lever, or the forward/reverse shift lever. Gradually release the clutch pedal after shifting.

IMPORTANT: The clutch pedal should be rapidly depressed, but slowly and evenly released to prevent damage to the clutch plates. Never operate the tractor with your foot resting on the clutch pedal. Doing so may contribute to premature clutch wear.

B. Brake Pedals (Right and Left)

The right (outer) brake pedal engages only the right brake assembly. Refer to Figure 12.

The left (inner) brake pedal engages only the left brake assembly. Refer to Figure 12.

Use the individual brake pedals to assist in making sharp turns while operating the tractor in the field. Depress the brake pedal corresponding to the direction of the turn.

WARNING: Always lock the brake pedals together before driving the tractor on roadways or at high transport speeds. Engaging only one brake under these operating conditions could cause a dangerous accident.
