SECTION 3 - LUBRICATION AND MAINTENANCE

EVERY 10 HOURS OR DAILY

OPERATION 12

Brake Adjustment

The foot and park brake unit is self-adjusting and requires no maintenance.

Engaging and disengaging the park brake lever, 1, several times will activate the self-adjusting mechanism within the caliper and keep the brake in proper adjustment. This will ensure a proper set point for the brake to stop the tractor and hold it on an incline when parked.

WARNING: DO NOT OPERATE THE TRACTOR WITHOUT THE BRAKES IN GOOD WORKING ORDER.

OPERATION 13
