SECTION 2 - OPERATION

CREEPER GEARS (Optional)
Tractors can be equipped with a 10.1:1 creeper gear
for extra low ground speeds. Creeper gear provides
an additional 18 forward and 9 reverse gears.
When in creeper gear, the transmission display will
show “C” for creep, 1, and the gear selected, 2.
To engage creeper gears, place the transmission in
neutral, stop the tractor and depress the inching
pedal. Depress the top of the creeper switch, 3,
engage a gear and release the inching pedal and
operate normally.
To disengage the creeper gear, stop the tractor,
depress the inching pedal, return the shift lever to
neutral, and depress the bottom of the creeper
switch.
IMPORTANT: The creeper gear offers very low
ground speeds. Do not use the low gearing to apply
excessive draft loads to the tractor.
NOTE: To determine creeper ground speeds multiply
the ground speed for each gear listed in the ground
speed chart, located in Section 5, by 0.10.
Example 0.10 x 1.23 MPH = 0.123 MPH
