can reduce the effectiveness of the additive over time.
Static charges can build up in ULSD fuel while it is flowing
through fuel delivery systems. Static electricity discharge
when combustible vapors are present could result in a
fire or explosion.
Therefore, it is important to ensure that the entire system
used to refuel your machine (fuel supply tank, transfer
pump, transfer hose, nozzle, and others) is properly
grounded and bonded. Consult with your fuel or fuel

TRANSPORT of implements and end of field turn-around.
Position control lever should be moved fully rearward (C)

CONSTANT DEPTH of implements on level terrain and for

swale terrain. The implement will raise and lower to
follow the ground contours while maintaining a nearly
constant depth.
• Operating in varying soil conditions. The implement is
raised slightly to get through tough spots so you do not
have to shift to a lower gear.
Draft control lever (B) controls amount of load required
before hitch responds. With lever placed fully forward to
the position marked “off” (C), there is no draft sensing.
Placing the lever toward the rear position reduces the
amount of draft load required to override the position
setting set by the position control lever (A) and raise the
rockshaft.
Draft sensitivity ranges can be changed by repositioning
the center link. (See Position Center Link in this section
for additional information.)
For draft load sensing operation:
• Initially place position control lever (A) in its fully
rearward position and the draft control lever (B) in the
fully forward (least draft) position.
• With tractor moving, push position control lever (A)
forward to set implement operating depth. Set position
control lever stop (D) so control lever can be brought
back to the same position. The operating depth set-up
will prevent the rockshaft from lowering all the way
when the tractor begins to slip. Then pull draft sensing
M47169 —19—29JAN92
lever (B) rearward until desired draft sensing sensitivity
is obtained.
• The position control lever (A) can also be raised slightly
to override the draft control setting to help get through
slippery spots without getting stuck.
• The position control lever (A) can be moved fully
rearward to raise the hitch at the end of the field.

Service Tires Safely
Explosive separation of at tire and rim parts can cause
serious injury or death.
Do not attempt to mount a tire unless you have the proper
equipment and experience to perform the job.
Always maintain the correct tire pressure. Do not inflate
the tires above the recommended pressure. Never weld
or heat a wheel and tire assembly. The heat can cause
an increase in air pressure resulting in a tire explosion.
Welding can structurally weaken or deform the wheel.
When inflating tires, use a clip-on chuck and extension
hose long enough to allow you to stand to one side and
NOT in front of or over the tire assembly. Use a safety
cage if available.
Check wheels for low pressure, cuts, bubbles, damaged
rims or missing lug bolts and nuts.
