OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS

TO FREE WHEEL MACHINE (UNLOCK TRANSMISSION):

Always turn off engine before engaging or disengaging the hydro release (free wheel) valves. Never attempt to move the valves with the engine running.

The hydro release valves are located beneath the seat, on the front side of the hydro pumps. To access the release valves, lift the seat frame assembly, use a 5/8” wrench to rotate bolt counter-clockwise two full turns to disengage pump. Repeat procedure for opposite pump. To engage, rotate each pump bolt clockwise until bolt is snug.

Note: Before pushing or towing tractor, the trans- mission must be unlocked, and parking brake released. The tractor should never be pulled at more than two miles per hour or for any appreciable distance.
