Towing Tractor

IMPORTANT: Avoid damaging transmission-hydraulic system by observing the following precautions:

NEVER ATTEMPT TO START TRACTOR BY TOWING. Engine will not start, and transmission might be damaged.

If possible, operate engine at 1600 rpm to provide lubrication, power steering and power brakes. Have an operator steer and brake tractor.

Move gear shift lever to PARK position. With tractor on level surface (or block tracks to prevent motion), push manual park brake release valve (A) down.

NOTE: To disengage the park brake, pump clutch pedal approximately 20 times or until clutch pedal no longer fully returns.

CAUTION: Clutch pedal will return quickly with a strong force when shift lever is moved from the PARK position. Depress clutch pedal and release slowly to avoid injury.

After towing, pull up park brake release valve from the tow position. Start engine and move shift lever from PARK to NEUTRAL position. Stay clear of clutch pedal as it will return quickly to its normal (engaged) position with a strong force.
