Service Tractor Safely

Do not service the tractor while it is in motion or while the engine is running.

If equipped with mechanical front wheel drive (MFWD), and servicing tractors with rear wheels supported off ground and rotating wheels by engine power, always support front wheels in a similar manner. Engaging front-wheel drive will pull rear wheels off support if front wheels are not raised.

Tighten wheel hardware to correct torque as specified in Wheels, Tires and Tread section. Torque at intervals shown in Break-In Period and Lubrication and Maintenance sections, to ensure that wheel hardware does not loosen.

Reinstall shields removed during service.
