WARNING
When improperly operated, a tractor can roll over.
For low clearance use only, the roll bar may be
lowered. No protection is provided when the tractor
is operated with the roll bar in the lowered position.
Always raise the roll bar immediately after low
clearance use. When the tractor is being driven from 2
a low clearance job, the roll bar should be in the
raised position. Always use the seat belt when the roll
bar is raised. Seat belts save lives when they are
used. Do not use the seat belt when the roll bar is
lowered.
Do not attach chains or ropes to the ROPS for pulling
purposes as the tractor may tip backwards. Always
pull from the tractor drawbar. Be careful when driving

WARNING
Tractors with four wheel drive engaged or
disengaged should not be allowed to overspeed by
towing or coasting downhill with clutch depressed or
transmission in neutral. This may cause loss of
control, personal injury to the operator or bystanders
or failure of the drive shaft.
WARNING
Your tractor is equipped with very efficient,
hydraulically actuated rear wheel brakes. On four
wheel drive tractors the drive to the front axle is
automatically engaged, at speeds above 8.5 km/h
(5.2 MPH), when the brakes are applied, to provide
four wheel braking. Owners should be aware of the
effectiveness of four wheel braking which greatly
enhances braking performance. Care should be
taken during heavy braking, particularly if the rear of
the tractor is unballasted.
2--108
SECTION 2 -- CONTROLS, INSTRUMENTS AND OPERATION
WARNING
Hydraulic oil in the front axle suspension system
operates under very high pressure. Escaping
hydraulic oil under pressure can penetrate the skin
causing serious injury. Unqualified persons should
not attempt to disconnect any pipework in the front
axle hydraulic system. Failure to follow these
instructions can result in serious injury.
WARNING
If a transmission ratio is engaged, with the engine
running and the tractor supported on axle stands, the
self-levelling function of the suspension may cause
the axle to make corrections (move up and down).
The suspension should be locked out to maintain
stability.

select a wheel slip threshold, above which the
implement will raise until wheel slip returns to the
preset level. The system overrides the normal Draft
and Position Control sensing signals of the
hydraulics so care must be taken not to select too low
or too high a slip limit. Setting the slip limit to a very
low level, unobtainable in wet conditions, may have
a detrimental effect on the work rate/depth.

The slip limit ‘on’ indicator (2) will illuminate when slip
control is activated and the implement is raising to
restore the selected slip rate. The knob is detented

When checking the rear axle oil level it is good practice to ensure that the oil is up to the full mark on the dipstick
with the tractor parked on level ground. However, when connecting auxiliary equipment to the remote control
valves it should be remembered that the equipment utilises oil from the rear axle and could seriously lower the
oil level. Operating the tractor with a low oil level may result in damage to the rear axle and transmission
components. See page 3--98 for further details.
