Using Mechanical Front-Wheel Drive (MFWD) (If Equipped)

causym CAUTION: Avoid personal injury or death. Reduce speed when driving on icy, wet, or graveled surfaces.

Ballast tractor correctly to avoid skidding and loss of steering control. Engage front-wheel drive by using ON mode, rather than AUTO mode for four-wheel braking.

IMPORTANT: Use only AUTO or BRAKE ASSIST positions when transporting tractor.

MFWD can be engaged and disengaged in all gears (forward and reverse) during operation and under full load. Switch (A) has three operating positions:

Center ON Position-Engages MFWD. Indicator light on corner post display will show engagement.

  • MFWD engages when BOTH brake pedals are depressed.
