Drive Pedal

The drive pedal is located on the right side

of the tractor, along the running board. Press the drive pedal forward to cause the tractor to travel forward. Ground speed is also controlled with the drive pedal. The further forward the pedal is pivoted, the faster the tractor will travel. The pedal will return to its original position when it'snot pressed.

ReversePedal11

The reverse pedal is located on the right side of the tractor along the running board. Ground speed is also controlled with the reverse pedal. The further downward the pedal is pivoted, the faster the tractor will travel. The pedal will return to its original position when it'snot pressed.

When the ignition key is rotated out of the STOP position but not into the START position, the system's indicator monitor displays

the battery's output, in volts, on its LCD for approximately five seconds, after which it displays an hour glass and the hours of tractor operation. Once the tractor is started, the monitor continually displays an hour glass and the hours of tractor operation on its LCD.

NOTE: Hours of tractor operation are recorded any time the ignition key is rotated out of the STOP position, regardless of whether the engine is started.

The Indicator Monitor will also remind the operator of maintenance intervals for changing the engine oil. The LCD will alternately flash the recorded hours, "CHG" and "OIL" for five minutes, after every 50 hours of recorded operation elapse. The maintenance interval lasts for two hours (from 50-52,100-102,

150-152, etc.). The LCD will also flash as described above for five minutes every time the tractor's engine has been started during this maintenance interval. Before the interval expires, change the engine oil as instructed in the Maintenance & Adjustments section of this Operator's Manual.
