12.5 Shutting Down the Implement
To shut down the implement, first bring the tractor
to a complete stop. Then slow down the implement
by reducing the engine speed before disengaging
the PTO. Push the stop button to disengage the
wings and wait for all motion to stop before
proceeding to drive or shut down the tractor.
Park the tractor on a level surface, place the
transmission in park or neutral and apply the
parking brake, lower the attached implement to the
ground, shut down the engine, remove the key, and
wait for all motion to come to a complete stop
before exiting the tractor. OPS-F- 0011
