Hi everyone.
I am an author and in my current book my character, who knows nothing about tractors, needs to move a 1980 John Deere tractor, model 850, out of a barn. Move it about 25 feet. I need to know how one would operate said tractor. I have been told the following. Is it correct? If not, could someone give me the right steps to move the tractor? Thank you.
Steps I've been told:
Insert key. Put differential and gear into neutral and while holding down the clutch press down brake. Then put gear into low gear and release brake and clutch. Roll tractor forward and when you want to stop, push down both clutch and brake, and then put differential and gear into neutral and turn off engine.
