4.5 STOPPING THE TRACTOR
a) Set the accelerator to minimum (release pedal 6, Fig. 1-2 or move throttle
lever 8, Fig. 1-2 all the way forward).
b) Depress the main brake gently.
c) Depress the clutch before the tractor comes to a complete halt.
d) Put the gear in neutral (levers 5-11 Fig.1-2) and pull up the parking brake
(lever 4 Fig.1-2).
4.6 DIFFERENTIAL LOCK
The tractor is equipped with a mechanical differential lock on both axles.
Use the differential lock only when necessary: when one of the wheels slips due
to poor ground adherence.
Warning: when the differential lock is engaged, the tractor cannot be
steered.
To lock the front differential, lower lever 14 Fig.1 (for RS/R models) or lever 9 fig.
2 (for SN/A models). Releasing the lever will unlock the differential.
Use, pedal 12, Fig. 1-2 to lock the rear differential. Release the pedal to unlock
the rear differential.
Use the differential lock only with creep gears and reduce engine
Rpm beforehand. Do not use the differential lock going into or in
curves. If the differential does not release, reduce engine Rpm, stop the
tractor and release the different lock by moving the steering wheel.
4.7 PTO
The tractor is equipped with a rear PTO that can operate in two ways:
independent and synchronised. Both can have two speeds: slow and fast.
Splining: ASAE 1 3/8" with 6 splines
Turning direction: clockwise (in synchronised mode, turning direction is
clockwise with forward drive).
WARNING: move lever N° 15 fig.1-2 to neutral position F fig.19
when the PTO is not used. This prevents the PTO shaft and the
other rotating components from accidentally turning.
If implements that produce a great deal of inertia (e.g. lawn mowers,
brush-wood choppers, etc.) are connected to the PTO, it is advisable to
use a cardan shaft transmission with "free wheel" device. As it prevents
drive from being transmitted from the implement to the machine, this device
allows these latter to immediately stop as soon as the clutch is depressed.
