1. Before dismounting tractor or performing any service or

maintenance, disengage power to implement, lower the 3-
point hitch and all raised components to the ground, operate
valve levers to release any hydraulic pressure, stop engine,
set parking brake, remove key, and unfasten seat belt.

ground with bucket or loader attachment in full roll-back posi-
tion. Shut off tractor, set park brake and remove key. Operate
valve levers to release any hydraulic pressure.

qualified, experienced Cub Cadet Yanmar dealer. Incorrect

ing, removing, assembling or servicing equipment.
