FEATURES AND CONTROLS
Center Console (For Models HD
and HD
PTO
Only)
Joystick - Attachment Arm
Movement of the joystick controls the lift and tilt
functions of the attachment arm and the PRO-TACH
attachment system. See page 42.
Engine Speed (RPM) Control Lever
The engine speed (RPM) control lever controls
engine RPM. This is used to set engine RPM
separately from the travel speed when using
attachments. See page 45.
Power Take-Off (PTO)
The front PTO is available on model HDPTO only.
The PTO has a rated speed of 2000 RPM. The PTO is
used to power some attachments. See page 63.
WARNING! Do NOT exceed the rated attachment PTO
speed. Stay clear of rotating driveline. Keep bystanders
away. Keep PTO shields and all guards in place.
Disengage PTO, put the gear selector in PARK, stop the
engine and make sure all rotating components are stopped before exiting utility vehicle. Do NOT
service the utility vehicle or attachment with the PTO engaged. Do NOT service the attachment in a
raised position unless properly blocked and with all rotating components stopped. Disengage PTO for
road travel.
Joystick Lockout Switch
The joystick lockout switch is used to activate or lock out the joystick functions. The joystick
should be locked when no attachments are installed. This will keep the joystick from
accidentally being activated. See page 42.
Tilt Lockout Switch
The tilt lockout switch locks out the tilt function. See page 42.
Tip: When operating PTO driven attachments, the tilt lockout switch will automatically activate. Using
the attachment with the tilt locked out will limit the possibility of tilting the attachment while the PTO
shaft is turning and putting stress on the PTO driveline u-joints. Before engaging the PTO system,
tilt the attachment to the desired operating position. See your attachment owner’s manual for
detailed information.
Front Auxiliary Hydraulic Switch
The front auxiliary hydraulic switch controls hydraulic flow to the front male and female
coupler for attachment operation. See page 43.
