Hi all, first post.
I just traded for the tractor above. I have located a manual for it, but it won't be here for a few days and as the PO repainted the tractor, the operation stickers are missing.
I have figured out the 540 / 1000 PTO settings as well as forward / backwards and the high / low side of the gear box. I also believe the little foot lever by my Right heel may be the diff lock.
I'm guessing that the front hand lever by my Left thigh is the 4x4 engagement lever, but it doesn't seem to do anything. It does have a good 'feel' like it's hooked up to something though.
I have also noticed the engine picks up a 'little' RPM if I turn the key off after I start the engine. Like something isn't using power any more, even though no lights are on. Can I assume the battery is no longer being charged when the key is off? (seems obvious, but I need to learn these things)
One more question (for now). What is the round knob in front of and under the seat? I didn't want to turn it without knowing.
Thanks for reading my silly questions, folks! My last tractor was a Fergie TO-20 and she didn't have all the goodies like this one.
Carl.
