Using Mixed Control — In draft control, when draft decreases, the implement automatically lowers to increase draft. However, the implement some- times lowers too much. To limit the degree the implement can be lowered, set the position control lever at the lowest working depth desired for the implement; then lower the draft control lever to the point where the implement is at the desired depth. This stops the implement from going too deep and also controls the pull to prevent loss of traction and ground speed.

Brake Pedal Lock

The brake pedal lock is located on the right brake pedal. Flip the lock counterclockwise so it engages the bracket on the left brake pedal to interlock both brake pedals. See Figure 18.
