The control lever may only be moved to the forward or reverse positions if the neutral lock button on the control lever knob is depressed.
SECTION 2 - OPERATION DIGITAL DISPLAY The function of the LCD display, 1, indicates which gear is selected and whether the transmission is in forward (F), neutral (N), or reverse (R). NOTE: Transmission directional clutches require calibration after the first 50 hours of use and every 300 hours thereafter. If harsh 9/10 shifts are noticed, the transmission may require recalibration. See your dealer or refer to Section 3.
SECTION 2 - OPERATION INCHING PEDAL The inching pedal, 1, is installed in place of the clutch pedal found on tractors with a conventional transmission. The inching pedal operates like a clutch, for safe, accurate positioning of the tractor when hitching up implements or operating in confined spaces. 76 Optimum inching control, particularly with heavy loads, is achieved in the lowest gears (F1 and R3). The degree of inching control gradually diminishes as higher gears are selected up to 10th speed.
SECTION 2 - OPERATION STARTING THE ENGINE AND MOVING FORWARD There are two methods: 1. Preselect A Forward Gear Before Moving Start the engine with the speed control lever in neutral (the digital display will show “N5”). Move and release or hold the control lever to the right and allow the transmission to select any gear between 5th and 10th as shown in the display. (10th gear is the highest available gear for moving from a standstill).
SECTION 2 - OPERATION 2. Powershift Forward Gear While Moving With the engine running, depress the neutral lock button and move the control lever forward (the digital display will show “F5” and the tractor will start to move forward). Increase engine speed and/or move the control lever to the right and allow the transmission to run through the gears until the desired operating speed is achieved.

SECTION 2 - OPERATION REAR WHEEL TRACK ADJUSTMENT Adjustment of track spacing is achieved by sliding the complete wheel assembly on the axle shaft and/or by changing the rim and disc position. To reposition the wheel on the axle shaft or to completely remove the wheel, block the front wheels, front and rear, jack up the rear of the tractor until both rear wheels are off the ground. Support the rear of the tractor with blocking or stands. Position wheels with hole in the rim at the top.
SECTION 2 - OPERATION An optional wheel adjustment tool, P/N 9824982, is available to move the loosened wheel in or out as required. To use the tool, slide the stepped end, 1, into the notch, 2, between the wedges. Attach the block, 3, to the axle with one of the removed wedge bolts, 4. Turn the adjusting bolt, 5, in or out to move the wheel assembly. NOTE: The tool is available through your authorized dealer. Set the wheel to the desired position on the shaft.
SECTION 2 - OPERATION Adjusting Pressed Steel Wheel After the rear axle is jacked up and blocked, remove the disc to hub bolts, 1. Using a suitable lifting device, remove the wheel and store the wheel and tire where it won’t fall over. Repeat the procedure on the opposite wheel and install where the first wheel was removed. Torque the disc to hub bolts to 800 N·m (590 ft.-lbs.) in 68 N·m (50 ft.-lbs.) increments using a diagonal pattern.
SECTION 2 - OPERATION DUAL REAR WHEELS WARNING Tractor wheels are very heavy. Handle with care and make sure, when stored, that they cannot fall and cause injury. NOTE: Dual rear wheels may only be installed on tractors with 2845 mm (112″) or 3048 mm (120″) rear axles. The outer wheel track spacing can be adjusted to a maximum of 3251 mm (128″) and the inner wheel to a minimum of 1524 mm (60″). Position the wheels on the axle to achieve the desired track spacing.
SECTION 2 - OPERATION A minimum clearance of 102 mm (4″) must be maintained between the sidewall of the tires measured at the closest point, 1. The tractor should be properly ballasted and the implement attached to accurately measure the tire clearance. 191 Wheel Removal/Installation To remove the outer wheel, proceed as follows: • Block the front wheels, front and rear, then jack up and support the rear axle. WARNING Before removing a wheel, make sure it is securely supported.
SECTION 2 - OPERATION BALLASTING AND TIRES 192 1. 2. Front weight Rear weight BALLASTING Maximum tractor performance is dependent upon proper ballasting and tire selection. Maximum efficiency will be achieved when tractor weight is correct for the application. Selecting the proper size and type of front and rear tires is also important in achieving maximum tractor efficiency. Various sizes and types of tires are available for your tractor. Your authorized dealer can assist you with this subject.
SECTION 2 - OPERATION Always maintain the proper air pressure in the tire to carry the load. Do not over inflate radial or bias ply tires. Radial tires will work with LOWER air pressures. Radial tires will show up to 20% sidewall deflection or BULGE when properly inflated. The force that enables the tires to drive the tractor must be transmitted through the tire sidewalls. The tires work best when all the tires on a given axle are working at the same rate.
SECTION 2 - OPERATION SELECTING BALLAST When tractor horsepower loads vary, the optimum weight of the tractor will change. This means that ballast may have to be added or removed to maintain the best tractor performance. Proper ballast will greatly improve tractor operation and ride. NOTE: Using these procedures will result in radial ply tires and bias-ply tires having different ballast. Radial tires require less overall weight to achieve the same tractive effort as bias tires.
SECTION 2 - OPERATION CHECKING WHEEL SLIPPAGE Wheel Slippage Chart A good way to monitor ballasting requirements is to check the drive wheel slippage. Slippage should be 8-15% in normal field conditions. Wheel Revolutions Counted in Step 4 % Slip If the drive wheels slip excessively, more weight may be required. However, remember that excessive load and/or poor traction conditions will also cause excessive wheel slip.
SECTION 2 - OPERATION ESTIMATING BALLAST REQUIREMENTS Two-wheel drive tractors should be ballasted to achieve 70% rear and 30% front weight distribution. It is possible to estimate the tractor’s operating weight and to calculate the amount of front and rear ballast required. These calculations are general starting points. Contact your authorized dealer or local tire distributor for more information.
SECTION 2 - OPERATION EXAMPLE 2 2180 w/2WD, 180 PTO HP and a desired 70%/30% weight split Total Rear 70% Front 30% 10636 kg (23400) 7445 kg (16380) 3191 kg (7020) Typical shipping weight in kg (lbs) - 7691 kg (16700) -5364 kg (11800) -2227 kg (4900) Ballast to be added in kg (lbs) 3045 kg (6700) 2082 kg (4580) 964 kg (2120) 180 PTO HP x 59 kg (130 lbs) per HP = Rear ballast can be added in the following manner: Duals 908 kg (2000 lbs) 20 max rear wheel weights 927 kg (2040 lbs) Calcium chlori
SECTION 2 - OPERATION IMPORTANT: To extend tractor life and avoid excessive soil compaction and rolling resistance, do not over ballast. Ballast should never exceed the weight needed to provide traction for sustained full power loads. TIRES AND BALLASTING The tire chart in Section 5 shows the load carrying capacity per tire. IMPORTANT: Do not overload tires.
SECTION 2 - OPERATION REAR WHEEL CAST IRON WEIGHTS Cast iron weights, 1, are available in two sizes, 39 kg (85 lbs.) and 204 kg (450 lb.). These weights may be installed on the inside or outside of the rear wheels. IMPORTANT: The 2145 39 kg (85-lb.) weight is different than the 39 kg (85-lb.) weight used on the other models and cannot be interchanged with the weight for the cast center wheels.
SECTION 2 - OPERATION BALLASTING FRONT END FOR TRANSPORT CAUTION Additional front ballast may be needed when transporting large 3-point hitch mounted equipment. Always drive slowly over rough terrain, no matter how much front ballast is used. Add front end ballast when it is needed for stability and steering control. Never allow the tractor to operate with the front wheels off the ground.
SECTION 2 - OPERATION DETERMINING MAXIMUM FRONT BALLAST IMPORTANT: Do not overload front tires. If maximum weight shown in the tire chart is below ballasted weight, reduce ballast or install heavier tires. Use adequate front weight as required for the operating condition. Two-wheel drive tractors should have only enough ballast to maintain safe steering control and keep the wheels on the ground.
SECTION 2 - OPERATION INSTALLING FRONT WEIGHTS CAUTION Optional front weights are heavy. Use appropriate lifting equipment or have the job done by your authorized dealer. Install the front weights on the weight bucket using a suitable lifting device. To add or remove individual weights, remove the four tie bolts, 1, and loosen the attaching bolts, 2. Add or remove individual weights as required, then reinstall bolts. Torque attaching bolts, 2, to 231 N·m (170 ft.-lbs.
SECTION 2 - OPERATION FRONT TIRES - LIQUID WEIGHT Tire Size CAUTION Installing liquid weight requires special equipment and training. Contact your authorized dealer. IMPORTANT: With radial tires NEVER fill any tire up to more than 40-50 percent. More liquid ballast solution will leave too little air space to absorb shocks. Damage to the tire could occur. This occurs due to the lower inflation pressures that are used with radial tires. Bias ply tires can be filled to 75 percent.
SECTION 2 - OPERATION TIRES • Check the air pressure in the tires and recheck every 50 hours or weekly. When checking tire pressures, inspect for damaged tread and side walls. Inflation pressure affects the amount of weight that a tire may carry. Locate the tire size for your tractor in the Tire Pressure and Load tables in Section 5 of this manual. Do not exceed the load for the pressures listed. Do not over or underinflate the tires. WARNING Inflating or servicing tires can be dangerous.
