TO CHECK BRAKE

If tractor requires more than five (5) feet to stop at highest

speed in high est gear on a level, dry concrete or paved

surface, then brake must be serviced.

You may also check brake by:

• Park tractor on a level, dry concrete or paved surface,

depress brake pedal all the way down and engage

parking brake.

• Disengage transmission by placing freewheel control

in “transmission disengaged” position. Pull freewheel

control out and into the slot and release so it is held in

the disengaged position.

The rear wheels must lock and skid when you try to manu-

ally push the tractor forward. If the rear wheels rotate,

then the brake needs to be serviced. Contact a qualified

service center.
