OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS

TO FREE WHEEL MACHINE

(UNLOCK TRANSMISSION):

Always turn off engine before engaging or disengaging the hydro
release (free wheel) valves. Never attempt to move the valves
with the engine running.

The hydro release valves are located beneath the seat on the
top of the hydro pumps on each side of the machine. To unlock
the transmission, lift the seat (see Page 25), rotate the transmis-
sion hex valve located on the top of each transmission approxi-
mately two full turns counter-clockwise.

To re-engage the transmission, rotate each transmission hex
valve clockwise to the end of its travel. Return the seat to the
operating position.

Note:

Before pushing or towing the tractor, the transmission
must be unlocked and the parking brake released. The
tractor should never be pulled more than two miles per
hour or for any appreciable distance.
