SECTION 2 - OPERATION

2-29

STOPPING THE TRACTOR

1. Gradually slow down the tractor. Set the

throttle as low as possible.

2. Disengage the clutch, apply the brake and put

the controls into neutral.

3. Reduce the engine speed to Idle. Run the

engine for 3 to 5 minutes before shutdown to

allow the engine to cool.

4. Shut down the engine and remove the key.

Turn all electrical accessories OFF.
IMPORTANT: If the engine has overheated,

allow it to idle an extended length of time to

reduce the temperature. If the temperature

does not return to normal or the coolant level

warning lamp is ON, shut down the tractor

immediately.

OVERHEAD CLIMATE CONTROLS

Above the right console is a panel containing the

climate controls. These consist of a rocker

switch, which activates the air conditioning, and

three rotary switches, controlling the pressurizer

fan, temperature, and recirculation mix.

CAUTION: THE CAB IS NOT DESIGNED TO

PROVIDE A “SPRAYER SAFE” ENVIRONMENT

FOR

THE

OPERATOR.

WHEN

APPLYING

CHEMICALS FROM A SPRAY UNIT, DO NOT RELY

ON THE CAB FILTER ELEMENTS TO PROVIDE

PROTECTION TO THE OPERATOR FROM

AIRBORNE CHEMICALS.

Heater

1. To activate the heater, open the heater hose

valve, 1, on the right side of the engine block.

Under most cold-weather conditions it is not

necessary to have the valve completely open.
During hot weather, shut the heater valve off

on the side of the engine. This will ensure no

heated engine coolant will flow into the heater

core.
