A—Brake Pedals
4. Couple brake pedals (A) together before driving on a
road. Avoid hard applications of brakes.
5. Drive slowly enough to maintain safe control at all
times. Slow down for hillsides, rough ground, and
sharp turns, especially when transporting heavy,
rear-mounted equipment.
6. Before going down a hill, shift to a gear low enough to
control speed without using brakes. Never coast down
hill.
7. When transporting downhill on icy or graveled grades,
be alert for skids which could result in loss of steering
control. To decrease chance of skids, reduce speed
and be sure tractor has proper ballast.
