(b) 2-wheel drive mode

IMPORTANT: Avoid damage.

●ALWAYS keep the 4-wheel drive lever in the OFF position when traveling on a paved surface.

●ALWAYS disengage the 4-wheel drive lever when not needed to prevent premature wear of the front tires.

●NEVER install tire chains to the front wheels. Chains will hit and can damage the tractor.

●If disengaging the 4-wheel drive lever is difficult, stop the tractor, turn the steering wheel right and

left several times. Then attempt to disengage the 4-wheel drive lever again.

●To minimize tire wear, drive in the 4-wheel drive mode only when absolutely necessary. Driving the tractor on a paved road in the 4-wheel drive mode can accelerate wear of the tires.

●To obtain better traction, keep the front tires at the maximum allowable pressure.

●When the 4-wheel drive lever is in the ON position, braking will apply to all four wheels.
