pay attention being in space of shifting lever and hand throttle control.
z Brake the tractor with parking brake before leaving tractor with running engine.
z When leaving the tractor with tools connected in the front or rear three-point hitch, the three-point
hitch with these tools must be lowered to the lower position.
The tractor must not be leaved with the tools in the upper position in three-point hitches.
z Before leaving the tractor, do not forget to secure the tractor by manual brake. Engaging a gear does
not secure the tractor against rozjetím (clutch is disengaged), remove the key from the switchbox and
lock the cabin.
With stopped engine only
z All work connected with refuelling, cleaning, lubricating and adjusting the tractor or attached
implements may only be performed with the engine and moving parts of the tractor stopped except
functional checks of the brakes, hydraulic system and charging.
z Before removing the side plates of the hood it is always necessary to stop the engine. The tractor
engine can only run in a closed building or room if sufficient ventilation is ensured. Exhaust gases are
harmful for health.

the OECD code 10 (FOPS).
ZETOR tractors may only be fitted with front loaders approved by ZETOR TRACTORS.
dditional fitting of a front loader approved by ZETOR TRACTORS may only be carried out by
a ZETOR Authorized Service Center.
The use of front loaders not approved by ZETOR TRACTORS is forbidden.
Failure to observe this instruction may cause serious accidents.
Carefully observe the operating instructions supplied by the front loader manufacturer.
Attachment points for assembly of the front loader to the tractor are specified in the manual of

Principles for operating tractors equipped with front end loade
r
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR USERS
22
Carefully study operation manual supplied by the manufacturer of front end loader.
In case of discord of Principles for operating tractors equipped with front end loader and operation
manual for front end loader, which was supplied by the manufacturer of front end loader, the wording
listed in operation manual supplied by the manufacturer of front end loader shall apply.
z The use of front end loader for transporting material at places accessible to the public is forbidden.
z The use of front end loader for transporting material in places inaccessible to the public is possible
only in a limited way. In such case, instructions in user's manual supplied by the loader manufacturer
must be observed.
z Observe local valid regulations at all times.
z A strict ban on transportation and lifting of people by means of loader is in effect.
z No matter whether the front end loader is loaded or empty, no-one may stand in front of the loader if it
is in lifted position. When driving with a lifted loader, there is a risk of load transported by front end
loader falling (there is a risk of disrupting the balance of the tractor).
z Never leave the tractor standing with the loader in lifted position.
z If it is necessary to open the bonnet of the engine at intervention, disconnect the front end loader first
or secure hydraulic rollers of front end loader by metallic props designed for this purpose.
z Hydraulic circuit of the front end loader is designed in such a way to endure the maximum operation
pressure of 20 MPa (200 bar). Do not do any changes on couplers of hydraulic circuit hoses.
z Any front end loader ZETOR mounting without observing the recommendation of ZETOR TRACTORS
valid to the day of pur-chase revokes the validity of guarantee for the whole of supply.
z The loader may be used, maintained and repaired only by people who perfectly know the machine
and who are informed about potential risks.
z When driving on roads do not transport any material on the front end loader.
z It is necessary to observe special instructions related to accidents prevention and general rules
related to technical safety, la-bour medicine, labour hygiene and regulation defining operation on
roads.
z The manufacturer does not bear any responsibility for any potential damage incurred as a result of
changes conducted on the loader without their consent.
z Do not ever adjust the front end loader by yourselves and do not use the adjusted front end loader
without prior ZETOR´s ap-proval. The loader may become dangerous as a result of not observing
these instructions. ZETOR TRACTORS shall not be held responsible in case of any damage or injury.
z Use front end loader without additional weights on the tractor (danger of mutual contact). The load of
front and rear drive axle must not exceed the maximum permitted load listed in the manual. The use
of front end loader requires mounting of counter weight in the rear part of the tractor.
z Each working tool was reconstructed for the purpose of specific usage and has its own tolerance of
resistance and tightness.
z It is forbidden to use front end loader for cultivating soil and stubbing. Such work needs to be done
with a special tool, front end loader is not designed for doing this.
z Using controls which would set the loader into motion without driver holding the gear shifting lever is
strictly forbidden and re-sults in installation not meeting the prescribed standard.
z To penetrate the loaded material, better use the kinetic energy of the tractor rather than pressing force
which causes higher strain of both the loader and the tractor.
z Do not overload hydraulic parts if the load is too heavy or pistons are in end positions.
z Control the loader exclusively from driver's seat, if you are sitting on driver's seat.
z Do not leave the seat if you have not blocked any movement of controls.
z No people can be present in the working zone of the loader.
z When working with a lifted loader, mind electric and external cables etc.
z Loader/tractor set needs to be parked on a horizontal and solid base, the arms of the lifting device
must be set in the lower position
You will find more information in user's manual to front end loader.
Important notification: Work always safely and with consideration.
Zetor tractors used for work in the woods
o
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR USERS
23
Standard tractors Zetor do not provide sufficient protection for operation in forest terrain as, for example,
protection against a fal-ling tree or branch on a cab or penetration of objects to a cab.
If Zetor tractor is utilized for forest work, a tractor operated within the European Union must be protected
against these risks.
It is necessary to observe applicable local valid regulations in countries which are not part of the European
Union.
To ensure this protection, it is advisable to conduct assembly of a specific protective structure, like for
example FOPS / OPS (Fal-ling Object Protective Structure / Operator Protective Structure), tested according
to standards for forest machines.
Only forest superstructures approved by ZETOR TRACTORS can be mounted to ZETOR
tractors.
In case of additional assembly of further tractor equipment for working in the woods, full responsibility is
borne by the supplier and manufacturer of the protective structure that all the safety regulations (e.g: OPS /
FOPS), all the conditions of homologation (e.g. the area of driver's view, lighting, parameters, permissible
weight etc.) are met, same as for the provision of due assembly of pr
-tective equipment. The
supplier/manufacturer of protective construction is also obliged to conduct all the necessary validation
(approval) steps required by the legislature of the country in which the tractor is operated.
Safety labels
z Important parts of the machine are equipped with safety labels warning against possible danger.
Restore damaged or illegible labels and replenish missing ones.
z New components installed during the repair should be provided with up-to-date safety symbols. The
safety symbols must be clearly visible!

ACQUAINTANCE WITH THE TRACTOR

Immediately after cooling the cabin and lowering the inner
temperature on the required values, we recommend the
following:
- Switch over the control of air circulation (D) from position
(b - air re-circulation) to position (a - outer air suction)
- Do the continuous regulation of the air temperature with
air condition on by opening the heating valve (A). The air
entering the cabin from expiration is not so intensively
dried with this setting.
- Continuous temperature control with air-condition on can
be also done by lowering the output of ventilator by
switching the control (B) to position 1 or 2.
Operation of heating or air-condition with tractor´s work
With engaged inner recirculation of air is the inflow of
fresh air closed and there is foul air in the space of the
cabin by operator. This state can cause the feeling of
fatigue and there can also be penetration of dust to the
cabin because of the loss of surplus pressure.
Note: Set the control (D) according to individual
requirements on temperature to the position between (a)
and (b) so that the ventilator sucks the air from the outside
of the cabin through filters, when working.
C18N073
When spraying pesticides and using the
heating filter with active carbon, the recirculation
controller should be in position 'air is drawn into from
the outside' and the fan controller should be in the
osition 'fan maximum work' to create overpressure
in the cabin.

Active carbon filters are installed in the placed of standard dust filter and the replacement is done in the
same way as with standard filters. Filter must be inserted with the white side to the grid. Assembly
instructions are found in the chapter 'Maintenance instructions'.
Filter is used only when spraying pesticides, then it must be replaced back by a paper filter because the
flying dust would clog the carbon filter very fast.
The recirculation control must be in the position 'air is sucked from the outside'.
Ventilator control must be in the position 'maximum ventilator run'.
WARNING: filter does not provide full protection against toxic substances
- Wear protective gloves when manipulating with the filter.
- Do not clean the filter and do not blow through with compressed air.
DANGER: Replace the active carbon filter every 200 hours or 36 months (date of production is
given on the filter). If you happen to smell pesticides in the cabin, replace the filter immediately and
have the sealing of the cabin checked. Used filters must be damaged in specialized collection
centres.
When spraying pesticides and using heating filters with active carbon, the recirculation
control must be in the position of 'air sucked from the outside' and the ventilator control 'maximum
ventilator run' for creating surplus pressure in the cabin.
When spraying pesticides, increased care should be taken when entering or exiting the tractor
because of possible contamination of the working area. Follow the safety instructions for handling
esticides according to the valid legislation of the country where the tractor is used, type of the
hazardous substance, instructions of the manufacturer of the hazardous substance and
manufacturer of the carried or towed sprinkler.

Add only urea!
Other media, even a small amount (e.g. diesel oil), lead to the destruction of the system.
If e.g. diesel oil was loaded and is present in the system, the whole system of urea injection must be
replaced!
If the loaded medium (e.g. diesel oil) does not reach the guide or export pump I of the dosing module,
all you have to do is to empty and thoroughly clean urea tanks.
Maintain cleanliness.

The tractor is equipped with the engine fulfilling emission limits STAGE IV and TIER 4f. The compliance with
SYSTEM OF ADDITIONAL TREATMENT OF EXHAUST GASES
81
the emission limit is achieved, among others, by the combination of two systems of treatment of exhaust
gases:
a - Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) designed for purification of exhaust gases. In the diesel particulate filter,
solid particles (carbon black) formed during incomplete combustion of diesel fuel are gathered and then
burnt. The oxidation catalyst (DOC) is a part of the DPF unit as well.
b - SCR - the SCR abbreviation stands for system for cleaning of exhaust gases of diesel engines using the
selective catalytic reduction decreasing the amount of NOx in the exhaust gases. At the same time, the
reduction agent injected into the exhaust system reacts in SCR catalyst with NOx emissions contained in
exhaust gases which are reduced to nitrogen (N2) and water (H2O). The control of the injected amount of
urea is performed using the control unit itself in connection with the control unit of the engine.
To ensure proper functioning of the system, several its parts are monitored so to meet the
required emission limits:
- The level and quality of urea injected in the catalyst SCR.
- The amount of NOx in exhaust gases and temperature in the system.
- Detection of an illegal intervention and any handling to put the system out of order.
Conditions for DPF operation
During operation of the tractor, the DPF filter is clogged with solid particles generated by the fuel combustion
as the engine is running.
Passive regeneration of the clogged DPF filter occurs in the event of an increased exhaust temperature
above 250 ° C at higher engine load.
Active particle filter regeneration must be triggered by the tractor operator under predefined conditions.

a risk of damage of the system of treatment of exhaust gases. Do not stop the engine immediately
after regeneration of DPF filter.Leave the engine idling at low revolutions until sufficient decrease of
temperature of the system of treatment of exhaust gases is achieved!
Conditions for SCR system operation
The amount of urea in the tank is displayed on the instrument panel. If the amount of urea in the tank is
exhausted when the engine is running, the injector in the exhaust manifold is in danger of being damaged
and the engine power can be reduced. The catalytic reduction is stopped and the amount of harmful
emissions in exhaust gases is increased. When urea is added in the tank, the catalytic reduction is restored.
Operation of the tractor without the SCR (selective catalytic reduction) system is prohibited!
Conditions for proper functioning of the system
- temperature of cooling liquid must be higher than 60°C,
- working temperature of the catalyst must be higher than 250°C
- outdoor temperature must be higher than -20°C,
- engine revolutions must be higher than 1,000 rpm
- requirement for the withdrawn torque must be higher than 20%.

Urea (Aqueous Urea Solution AUS 32, DEF)
SYSTEM OF ADDITIONAL TREATMENT OF EXHAUST GASES
84
The used reagent is a mixture of 32.5% solution of synthetic urea and demineralized water. It is used as
a reducing agent NOx for additional treatment of exhaust gases by SCR (selective catalytic reduction) of
motor vehicles with diesel engines.
The product is labelled as Urea or AUS 32 (AUS: Aqueous Urea Solution) and complies with the standard
ISO 22241-1 Reducing agents NOX AUS 32.
The urea solution AUS 32 is known in USA and North America as Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF).
The lifetime of urea without the loss of the quality is influenced by storage conditions.
It crystallizes at ambient temperature below -11°C and at ambient temperature over +35°C it initiates
hydrolytic reaction which means that a slow decomposition to ammonia and carbon dioxide begins.
It is essential to protect unprotected vessels from direct sunlight.
Barrels must not be stored longer than one year!
Pay attention to the resistance of the used materials and store vessels.
Urea freezes below the temperature of -11°C.
To ensure proper functioning of the SCR system, urea with the concentration of 32.5% must be
used!
Principles for safe handling of urea (AUS 32, DEF)
Contact with skin
- Prolonged or repeated contact may cause skin irritation.
Contact with eyes
- Prolonged or repeated contact may cause eye irritation. Rinse eyes with plenty of water for at least 15
minutes. If irritation persists, visit a physician.
Ingestion
- In case of ingestion of small quantities, toxic effects are not likely. Higher amount may cause intestinal or
stomach problems. Do not induce vomiting. Drink half a litre of water or milk. In case of ingestion of a larger
than small quantity, visit a physician.
Fire-fighting measures
- The product has fire extinguishing properties.
Extinguishing means
- If the material got in the fire, use large amount of water for extinguishing.
Accidental release measures
- Minimize contact of the spilled material with the soil so that you do not allow product to reach surface or
underground water courses.
- Soak up the spilled material with dry soil, sand or other non-flammable material.

originate by burning diesel.
Filter of solid particles - indication of operation and failures of the system
P18N058
The activity of a DPF filter is indicated by lights (1), (2) and (3) on the instrument panel.
More in the chapters Instrument panel and Exhaust gas aftertreatment.
Diesel particle filter regeneration
During operation of the tractor, the DPF filter is clogged with solid particles generated by the fuel combustion
as the engine is running.
The clogged DPF filter is regenerated (cleaned) by the increased exhaust temperature of the standing tractor
during engine run. WARNING: When regenerating the DPF particulate filter, the temperature of the
exhaust gases and the surface of the particulate filter will rise sharply.
There is an increased risk of fire or explosion if DPF particulate filter regeneration occurs in an
environment with a fire hazard or in an explosive environment.
When working with a tractor in an environment where the risk of fire or explosive atmospheres occurs, the
DPF filter regeneration must be immediately interrupted or the environment left for the DPF filter
regeneration.

During operation of the tractors with the engine equipped with the filter of solid particles avoid
long-term operation at idling or at low engine load.
Driver´s seat - safety switch
The driver´s seat is equipped with a safety switch which
signalizes the system of driver abandoning the driver´s
seat.
If the tractor is started, there is nobody on the driver´s sea
and reversing lever under the steering wheel is shifted to
F or R position, N position is shifted automatically and
tractor does not start.
If this situation occurs, it is necessary to sit on the driver´s
seat, to return the reversing lever under the steering wheel
to N position and then to select the direction of drive again
(F or R).

Gear shifting
The tractors are equipped with a five-gear synchronized
gearbox, three-gear torque multiplier, reversing and twogear reduction.
Five-gear gearbox is shifted by main shifting lever with
buttons for disengaging the travel clutch (1) and for
shifting the individual gears of multiplier (2).
Shifting road and reduced speeds
H - road speeds
N - neutral
L - reduced speeds
Shifting of gears of the main gearbox with reduced speeds
is the same as with road speeds.
Considering low speed of the tractor, change nearly
always means moving off from rest.

The listed principles for tractor´s operation serve for facilitating the operation and guarantee
corresponding service life of travel clutch!
The description of the system of travel clutches
The tractor is equipped with two individual travel clutches, one for travelling forward and one for travelling
backward.
The selection of the driving direction and also the choice of a specific travel clutch is done by shifting the
reversing lever under the steering wheel from neutral position to the position forward or backward.
The way of controlling the travel clutch by
1 - Reversing lever
2 - Clutch control button on the head of reversing lever
3 - Clutch pedal
The differences in ways of controlling the travel clutch by
1 - By shuttle shift lever
This mode of operation has an automatic start function.
When the shuttle shift lever is moved to neutral, the clutch is disengaged.
When the shuttle shift lever is moved to the forward or reverse position, the clutch is engaged and then the
tractor starts to slide smoothly in the direction determined by the reversing lever.
The speed of the clutch engaging and the smoothness of the start is controlled by the electronic
control unit based on the information stored in the calibration and the operator can not influence it.
The automatic start-up function is more gentle to the clutch connections than the clutch pedal
control, so for the normal operation of the tractor when starting, shifting or reversing, use the clutch
control with automatic start-up.
2 - By clutch control knob on gear shift lever
This mode of operation has the function of automatic clutch engagement.
When the clutch control button is pressed on the gearshift lever, the clutch is disengaged.
When the clutch control button is released on the gearshift lever, the clutch engages.
The speed of the clutch engaging is controlled by the electronic control unit based on the information stored
in the calibration and the operator can not influence it.
3 - By clutch pedal
When the clutch pedal is depressed, the clutch is disengaged.
When the clutch pedal is released, the clutch engages.
The switching speed of the clutch is dependent on the clutch pedal's releasing speed.
The clutch pedal does not allow automatic start-up and the operation affects the speed and smoothness of
the start.
In normal operation, use the clutch pedal only to stop the tractor.
For the need for sensitive travel eg when connecting the tool or when handling the tractor in
confined spaces, if even the reduced gears are not too slow, use the clutch pedal for a short time.
It is forbidden to regulate the tractor speed by partially pressing the clutch pedal at engine
speeds above 1 200 rpm. Do not use the clutch pedal as a footrest. There is a risk of a lifespan
reducin
or failure of the clutch
Interrupted sound signal
DRIVING OPERATION
96
PHS18N052
If the tractor speed is controlled by a partial pressing the clutch pedal at engine speeds above 1 200
rpm, an intermittent beep sounds and a warning on the instrument panel display is displayed. If this
occurs, immediately depress the clutch pedal fully or release the clutch pedal to the upper position
and wait until the acoustic signal ceases. Reduce the engine speed below 1 200 rpm, then continue
with the tractor operation.
Dead start of the tractor
Caution: If the air pressure in the tractor's air pressure system is less than 10 bar, the rear
wheels of the tractor are braked irrespective of the hand brake lever position and the tractor can not
be started until the air pressure in the tractor's air pressure system reaches at least 10 bar. When
attempting to start the tractor at low air pressure in the tractor's air pressure system, there is a risk
of damage to the clutch system.
If at dead start, engine revolutions are higher than 1400 rpm L gear of multiplier is automatically shifted, not
depending on the switch of multiplier pre-selection on dashboard being on or off. If the multiplier preselection switch on the dashboard is on at dead start, L gear of multiplier is shifted automatically
independent on the number of engine revolutions at dead start (i.e. when the engine revolutions are lower
than 1400 rpm).
A very fast dead start can cause overloading of driving gear, increased fuel consumption,
st
excessive wear of tyres and damage to load. Use dead start on the 1
gear only when driving with
heavy trailer to the slope and in difficult terrain.
Dead start of tractor in regular operation - automatic dead start functio
n
DRIVING OPERATION
97
- Use the control of travel clutch by reversing lever under the steering wheel for dead start of the tractor.
- Select the slowliest L gear of torque multiplier for dead start of the tractor.
Note: When starting or stopping the engine of the tractor, the fastest gear H is always automatically shifted.
- If the road and reducing speeds shifting lever is shifted in the group of road speeds, shift the lowest gear
speed for tractor dead start with respect for operational conditions.
- Use the lowest possible engine revolutions for tractor´s dead start, such that there is no turn off. After the
switch of travel clutch, increase the engine revolutions according to your needs.
Dead start by means of automatic dead start function
Automatic dead start function is in the shift of reversing lever with engaged applicable gear followed by dead
start without using the clutch pedal or clutch control buttons.
1. Start the engine.
2. Shift appropriate gear for starting the engine.
3. Release the manual brake, if you are standing on a slope, brake the tractor by foot brake.
4. When shifting the reversing lever form neutral to the requested direction of tractor drive (forward or
backward), the tractor starts.
5. When you increase the engine revolutions simultaneously, release the foot brake.
When depressing the clutch pedal, the automatic dead start function is put off from operation.
Dead start of tractor in regular operation - clutch pedal
In regular operation use the clutch pedal only for stopping the tractor. For the need of delicate
inching, e.g. when connecting the tools or when manipulating with tractor in crammed spaces, if
even the reduced gears are not slow enough, use the clutch pedal only for short time.
It is forbidden to control the speed of tractor by partial depression of clutch pedal with engine
revolutions higher than 1200 rpm. Do not use the clutch pedal as a foot rest. There is a risk of limited
service life or failures of travel clutches.
Dead start - using the clutch pedal
1. Start the engine.
2. Depress the clutch pedal.
3. Select road and reduced speeds.
4. Shift an applicable gear for starting the tractor.
5. Shift the reversing lever to the direction requested (forward or backward).
6. Slightly increase the engine revolutions.
7. Prepare the manual brake for unbraking.
8. Release the clutch pedal only to the point of travel engagement and with simultaneous increase of
revolutions continue in a continuous release of the clutch pedal.
9. Fully unbrake the manual brake.
10. Start smoothly and slowly.
Use this way of dead start when you need to inch carefully, for example when connecting tools
etc.
Change the direction of drive
DRIVING OPERATION
98
Change the direction of drive by means of reversing lever
Change the direction of drive by means of reversing lever is done with travel speed lower than
10km/h. When you attempt to change the direction of drive in speed higher than 10 km/h, acoustic
signal starts (uninterrupted tone) and the tractor engages neutral. The signal switches off after the
shift of reversing lever back to N position, when depressing the clutch pedal or pressing the button
of switching clutch on the head of gear shifting lever. It is also necessary to lower the travel speed of
tractor under 10km/h, shift the reversing lever to neutral position and to repeat the shifting of
requested direction.
Keeping the following instructions when changing the direction of the drive, contributes to
prolonging service life of travel clutches.
· For changing the direction of the drive of tractor use reversing lever under the steering wheel without using
the clutch pedal.
· For changing the direction of the drive of tractor, select the slowliest gear L with torque multiplier.
· For changing the direction of the drive of tractor, select lower gear with regard for the subsequent dead
start and tractor load.
Changing the direction of drive by means of reversing lever is done at tractor travel speed
lower than 10km/h. When you try to change the direction of drive at the speed of more than 10 km/h,
an acoustic signal starts (uninterrupted tone), the signal switches off after the shift of the lever back
to N position, when depressing the clutch pedal or pressing the button for switching off the clutch on
the head of the gear shifting lever.
1. Lower the travel speed of tractor under 10km/h by means of brake pedal.
2. Shift the reversing lever to the requested direction of tractor drive.
3. The tractor stops automatically and travels in the requested direction.
4. Continue in smooth dead start of the tractor with simultaneous incresae of engine revolutions.
Should the tractor speed drop below 10km/h, tractor shift neutral and it is necessary to lower
the travel speed of tractor under 10km/h, shift the reversing lever to neutral position and to repeat
the shifting to the required direction.
When depressing the clutch pedal, the automatic function is put off operation. If the above
mentioned is done subsequently after the attempt to change the direction of drive above 10 km/h, it
is necessary to lower the travelling speed of tractor below this speed. In opposite case, after the
release of clutch pedal the neutral remains shifted.
Change the direction of drive - using the clutch pedal
1. Depress the clutch pedal and stop the tractor by foot brake.
2. Shift the reversing lever to the requested direction of tractor drive.
3. Release the clutch pedal only to the point of travel engagement and with simultaneous increase of engine
revolutions continue in smooth release of the clutch pedal.
4. Start smoothly and slowly.
Gear shifting
- To shift gears while driving, control the clutch by the clutch control knob on the gearshift knob.
- When shifting, press and hold the clutch control knob on the gearshift lever, release the accelerator pedal,
disengage the gear, engage the gear, release the button, and then increase the engine speed.
- If the operating conditions allow, use the multiplier preselection function.
Gear shifting - Using the clutch pedal
Depress the clutch pedal (clutch disengaged). At the same time release the pedal of foot throttle and shift the
applicable gear speed. Release the clutch pedal smoothly (clutch is being engaged) and at the same time
increase the engine revolutions.
Gear shifting - using the clutch control button on the head of gear shifting leve
r
DRIVING OPERATION
99
Press the clutch control button on the head of gear shifting lever. At the same time release foot throttle pedal
and shift the applicable gear speed. Release the button of clutch control (clutch is being engaged) and at the
same time increase the engine revolutions.
Note: Clutch pedal is always preselected to the use of button of clutch control on the head of gear shifting
lever.
Blocking the automatic dead start function
With some failures of travel clutches system, the function
of automatic dead start is blocked. This situation is
signalized by an inscription displayed on a display. In this
case reversing lever under the steering wheel serves only
for the selection of direction of drive, the button for clutch
control on gear shifting lever does not work. For dead start
of tractor and gear shifting, it is possible to use only clutch
pedal.
If this situation occurs, finish your work and
contact service.
