CAUTION: When AutoClutch is switched off, the clutch pedal must be pressed to stop the tractor.

IMPORTANT: On foot brake with steering brake, the AutoClutch function operates only when the brake pedals are coupled together. Actuating a pedal individually (e.g. to steer) does NOT actuate the automatic clutch function.

IMPORTANT: AutoClutch remains switched on after start-up. If AutoClutch is switched off by the operator, it switches on again automatically the next time the tractor is started.

NOTE: The foot brake may or may not have a steering brake.

  • With Steering Brake — Two Brake Pedals
  • Without Steering Brake — One Brake Pedal

AutoClutch is an automatic clutch function. When AutoClutch is switched on, the clutch pedal does not need to be pressed to stop the tractor.

If the foot brake is depressed when driving the tractor, the speed will be reduced or the tractor stops. If the foot brake has a steering brake, both brake pedals must be depressed at the same time. When the foot brake is released again, the tractor automatically accelerates up to the speed currently commanded by the hand throttle or accelerator pedal.

NOTE: For driving maneuvers using the steering brake1 (only one brake pedal is depressed), engine speed must not drop below 900 rpm, otherwise the AutoClutch function becomes active again.

The AutoClutch function can be set for various anticipated situations.

To set the AutoClutch function, press menu button (4) repeatedly until the page shown appears.

With arrow buttons (2) or (3), select the desired check box (A) and press the confirm button (1).

Use the arrow buttons to select the desired setting.

Save selection using the confirm button.

To exit, press menu button (4).
