Locking latch for brake

pedals (3)
With the latch the brake pedals can be latched together.
D 2.1.4.
Accelerator pedal (4)
The use of the accelerator pedal enables an increase in

the engine speed to be achieved if the hand throttle is at
less than the full throttle setting.
CAUTION: When driving on the road only

the accelerator pedal should be used, and
the hand throttle knob should be in the
minimum position.
T1LS D9
D 2.1.5.
Always depress the clutch pedal when you change gear.

Let the clutch up gradually. When using the clutch pedal
the automatic operation does not control the multi---disc
clutch operation, the engagement is controlled with the
pedal.
Lock for steering wheel

inclination (5)
The steering wheel can be moved to 10 different positions

whilst pressing the locking pedal.
IMPORTANT: Never rest your foot on the clutch pedal

while driving. Do not allow the clutch to slip more than
necessary when starting.
When using the clutch to inch the tractor,and with the
pedal sometimes not fully depressed, the coupling
point of the clutch may change and the clutch engages
sooner.
With vehicles fitted with the hydraulic coupling there is no
need to release the clutch slowly when setting off. Release
the clutch pedal completely and use the accelerator pedal
to set off.
HiShift---clutch, operating and function, for more details
see page 55.
D 2.1.2.
Brake pedals (2)
WARNING: The brake pedals should always

be latched together (3) when driving on the
road.
When driving in the field or any other working sites the
brake pedals can be used individually as steering brakes.
The front wheel drive always engages when braking
with both brake pedals.
Differential lock always disengages when braking with one
or both brake pedals.
CAUTION: If functional problems occur in
the braking system, the tractor must be
stopped and the fault rectified before
continuing.

IMPORTANT: Do not keep the front wheels in the full lock

position for longer than absolutely necessary; otherwise
the oil temperature in the steering system will rise rapidly
and the pump may be damaged.
If the oil supply from the hydraulic pump should fail for
any reason, the tractor can still be steered manually with
the steering wheel. The steering valve will then act as a
pump. Steering is heavy to use and it works slowly.
At full---lock it is possible to force the steering wheel
further.
If the clucth pedal is used when changing driving

direction, be sure, that the pedal is fully depressed
down, before moving the shuttle lever.
By pushing the lever downwards the steering wheel can

be moved up or down. Lock the steering wheel by pulling
the lever up again.
Power shuttle
When changing the driving direction you do not need to

use the clutch pedal. However, traditional use of the clutch
pedal is still possible when changing direction.

CAUTION: Do not adjust steering wheel

position while driving.
The shuttle--- and parking brake lever can be located on

the other side of the steering wheel.
Front position (F): forward driving direction

Centre position (N): neutral

Safety precautions
--- For safety precautions always pull the collar round
the lever outwards before moving the shuttle lever
away from the parking brake position or back to the
parking brake position.
--- To move the lever you need to pull the lever towards
the steering wheel to release the security lock.
--- For safety precautions the tractor will not start if the
shuttle lever is not in the parking brake position.
CAUTION: If the tractor engine has to be left
running with the shuttle in the neutral
position, then the gear and range levers
must be placed in neutral.
--- On tractors there is a driver detector, which prevents
the shuttle engagement, if the driver is not in the
seat. If the shuttle is still engaged the arrow of the
selected direction flashes on the display panel. The
selected direction is engaged but not driving until
the driver sits on the seat and moves the shuttle
lever first to the parking brake position and then
engages the desired direction.
---32---
--- Operation when the speed is under 5km/h:

If the driver leaves the seat for more than two
seconds and the clutch pedal is not pressed for
more than 10% , the shuttle disengages and the
direction arrow flashes. The shuttle is engaged but
not driving until the driver sits on the seat, stops the
tractor and moves the lever to the parking brake
position (P) and then to the desired direction.
--- Operation when the speed is over 5km/h:
When leaving the seat the shuttle is engaged
Check regularly that the driver detector operates as
described above. Testing can be done this way, at low
speed while avoiding dangerous situations.

Parking brake
Parking brake is applied when the power shuttle is in the
centre position by pulling the collar round the lever up and
moving the lever to the down position (P).
This releases the spring which engages the tractor brakes
electro---hydraulically.
WARNING: ALWAYS apply the parking
brake when parking the tractor. The parking
brake applies automatically when stopping
the engine.
The desired Power Shift gear engagement can be

pre---programmed in the tractor in connection with the
power shuttle as follows:
--- depress the clutch pedal (keep it depressed all the time
while programming)
--- choose the desired driving direction (3)
--- choose the desired PS--- gear (A)
--- push the programming button (4) for at least two
seconds. The display shows the pre---programmed
driving direction and PS--- gear.
--- when required, program the other driving direction.
Different directions can have different programs.
To cancel the pre---programming put the power shuttle
lever (3) in the neutral position then press button (4) for at
least two seconds. The pre---programming disengages if
one of the PS--- automatic positions is engaged (switch (7)
on page 57).
Even if the power is switched off the pre---programming
remains.
When coupling the parking brake on, 4WD is engaged

and all wheels brake.
CAUTION: Do not have the parking brake on
when driving, all wheels will be locked. For
safety reasons the parking brake
engagement speed is limited to 2---6 km/h (3
km/h adjusted in the factory).
The parking brake is released by pulling the collar on the
lever upwards at the same time moving the lever to the
neutral (centre) position.

T D20
There is a separate display unit on the right front pillar in

the tractor, which operates as a display for power shuttle
and PS and also as a fault diagnosis display. The panel
also displays the outdoor temperature and power
take---off rotation indicator. The display unit has a
backlight for working in the dark and for warming the
display screen in cold conditions. On the side panel there
is a computer connector for checking and adjusting the
system (only for authorized workshop use).
The display unit is divided into three sectors:
--- Power shuttle sector (I)
--- PS---sector (II)
--- Diagnosis sector (III)
Power shuttle sector (I)

1. A tractor picture is continuously shown when the power
is on.
2. The driving direction arrow forward is shown when
forward driving direction is engaged. The arrow flashes,
if the shuttle has been operated at a speed over 10
km/h. The arrow flashes also, when the Automatic
Traction Control is activated (Automatic Traction
Control has been switched to ready status).
3. The driving direction arrow backward is shown when
reverse driving direction is engaged. The arrow flashes,
if the shuttle has been operated at a speed of over 10
km/h. The arrow flashes also, when the Automatic
Traction Control is activated (Automatic Traction
Control has been switched to ready status).
4. When the parking brake is on or in the neutral position,
the neutral (N) symbol is shown.
Only one of these signals (N---letter, front arrow, back
arrow) is shown at a time and one of them must always be
shown.
5. Both the driving direction forward (F) and the PS--- gear
are shown, when PS I, II or III are preprogrammed in
the forward shuttle, the display subsequently shows F I,
F II or F III.
10. The symbol for the power take---off is shown only if

the power take---off is rotating (no front power
take---off).
11. In normal situations when the power is on and the
tractor is stationary, the display shows the
thermometer and on the bottom line the outside
temperature to the nearest degree (11. a). The
outside temperature sensor is placed in the front part
of the tractor. The engine temperature can falsely
raise the temperature, especially when the tractor is
stationary.
12. If the tractor is moving, instead of the thermometer
the tractor symbol and arrow forward are shown and
below it the speed (12. a). The speed display shows
up to 15 km/h to one decimal place.
13. If the system detects an error situation in its own
operation, the picture of the book flashes, the service
code appears (13. a) on the lower line. In this
instance please contact an authorized workshop.

The push buttons for the Power Shift are placed both on
the speed gear lever and the range lever knob. Pressing
the hare button increases the speed range by one step
at a time, pressing the turtle button reduces the speed
by one step at a time.
The number (A) on the display unit shows which speed
range is engaged. When the gear number is engaging it
flashes as long as the automatic is engaged.
When turning the ignition switch on the Power Shift will
always be in the lowest range, if the power has been
switched off for over 10 seconds. The automatic selection
remembers the previous PS preprogramming in power
shuttle.
Speed ranges of the Power Shift gear:

--- Speed range 1: direct ratio, the display shows 1.
--- Speed range 2: high range, the display shows 2.
--- Speed range 3: high range, the display shows 3.
The quick---shift gear can be changed while the tractor is
moving and without depressing the clutch pedal and
because of the automatic selection the engagement is
smooth.
HiShift switches are meant for assisting and making it

easier to drive the tractor. The driving clutch is operated
by the fingertip control. The contact button of the switch is
placed both in the main and range gear levers, so there is
no need to use the foot clutch pedal while shifting.
Traditional use of clutch pedal is still possible, and also
recommended in some situations like attaching the
implements.
When using the HiShift--- switch (4), first press the switch
and hold it and then move the lever to the desired position. Then the switch can be released and the engagement will be automatically controlled.
When using the HiShift--- switch (4) the clutch pedal does
not move. The shifting of the clutch control by the foot
pedal is available in any situation. Note that the engagement of the power transmission is not automatic, but the
movement of the foot clutch pedal controls the engagement.

automatically when starting to drive and/or shuttling. The
4WD is also engaged when using the HiShift--- switch and
if the driving speed is under 10 km/h. The automatic
function also engages the 4WD regardless of the position
of 4WD switch. The automatic function disengages the
4WD after starting to drive or shuttling after the adjusted
delay.
With this function it is possible to get the maximum
traction. This reduces wheel slip by the rear wheels when
working on slippery surfaces.
The function is activated on as the factory setting (4.0 s).

--- when the upwards changing speed of revolution is
reached, push pre---programming button (A). Then the
controller saves the set speeds of revolutions and
reverts to normal operation.
The arrow of the chosen direction will blink if an attempt is
made to engage the driving direction when setting the
limit of the engine revolutions. This means the direction
cannot be engaged until the setting has been finished and
the level has first moved to the parking brake position.
After engaging the parking brake position the controller
reverts to normal operation.
The limit speeds of the engine revolutions still remain in
the memory after the power is switched off.

links) is increased when this knob is turned clockwise.
Nine different positions are available. This knob limits the
lifting height when either the position control knob (1.2) or
the lift/stop/lower switch (1.3) is used. The height limit is a
useful feature when there is a danger that the implement
could hit the cab, etc.
CAUTION: This knob does not limit lifting
height when the inner switch for connecting
implement in the cab or the push buttons on

The PTO shaft is easy to change.

IMPORTANT: Before engaging the PTO make sure that
the correct PTO shaft is fitted (changing instructions are
given in the Operating Instructions section on page 81).
The PTO can be temporarily disengaged by pushing the
lever (3.1) outwards (to the direction of arrow B) (but not
when using the ground speed PTO). This disengagement
is useful e.g. when you must stop the PTO fast
(emergency stop). The PTO should be started with switch
(3.2).

PTO switch (3.2)
The power take---off can also be started by using the rear

starting push---buttons (A) on the rear mudguards (extra
equipment). The switch (3.2) has to be pressed to the
centre position before you leave the tractor. The power
take---off starts, when one or the other rear starting
push---button is pressed continuously for at least 3
seconds (starting begins after 0.5 seconds). If the
pressing is interrupted during 3 seconds, the power
take---off stops.
Stopping:

off position.
The desired rotating area has to be selected through
the PTO selector lever (3.1) before starting.
The PTO can also be stopped by pressing once the rear

starting push---button (A) (extra equipment). After this
the push---button operates as starting button, when it is
pressed for more than 3 seconds.
Using switch (3.2) the PTO is engaged electro--hydraulically, the indicator lamp on the instrument
panel illuminates. Disengagement occurs electro--hydraulically. The indicator light on the instrument panel
flashes and shows that the lever (3.1) is engaged.
Using switch (3.2) disengagement is only temporarily.

E. Starting and running

Make sure you understand all the instruments and the
functions of the controls before you start driving your new
tractor. Also read the Safety Precautions at the beginning
of the manual.
Check all instruments immediately after the engine has
E 1.
IMPORTANT:
Always carry out daily maintenance of the tractor before
working.
Points to note during the first 50 hours running
Drive smoothly and vary the loading in order to run the

tractor in correctly. This will give the tractor a longer
service life and make it more economical.
--- Do not race the engine and do not run it at maximum
speed.
--- Do not pull a heavy load at a low engine speed, i.e.
dont make the engine labour.
E 2.
--- Avoid driving in the same gear and at the same engine
speed for long periods at a time.
NOTE: Check that all bolts and nuts are properly
tightened (wheels, exhaust system etc.).
Starting the engine
WARNING:
Never run the tractor in an enclosed
building.
5. If the engine fails to start in 10 seconds, stop starting

and try again following instructions at point 3. (the pre
heating of induction air does not function during
starting the engine). When the engine starts to fire,
keep the starter motor engaged until the engine has
started.
When turning the ignition switch to the on position, the
indicator lights for the parking brake and 4WD must be
illuminated. These will illuminate for approximately 0.6
seconds after the switch has been turned. This delay is for
security in order for the system to carry out starting
checks.
WARNING:
Never start the engine unless you are
seated in the tractor.
E 2.1.
started. Keep an eye on the instruments while driving.
Normal start/cold start
The engine starting process is carried out so that the

emissions are reduced when starting.
IMPORTANT: If the engine does not start the first time,

wait until it is completely stopped before trying again.
The running of the engine when cold, is adjusted by the

temperature (smooth engine running, good engine
starting, minor smoking...).
1. Ensure that the shuttle/parking brake lever is in the
parking brake position.
2. Turn the hand throttle lever to the low idling position.
E 2.1.1.
NOTE: Turn off all unnecessary equipment that uses

electrical power, because their circuits remain closed in
the glow and start positions.
3. Turn the ignition switch to start the position

--- --- If the glow indicator light on the dashboard does not
light up (= engine is warm enough), turn the ignition
switch to the start position.
---If the glow indicator light on the dashboard lights up,
wait until it extinguishes and then turn the ignition switch
to the start position.
---Release the ignition switch after the engine starts. Use
the accelerator pedal to control the engine running
speed.
After the cold engine is started the glow indicator light
may light up again when it is cold (temperature under
+15C). The white smoking and adjusting the engine
running when cold are reduced with this afterglow
function.
4. Reduce the engine speed as soon as the tractor has
started. Never race a cold engine.
--- Observe the oil pressure. After 3---4 seconds it should
be normal (especially for the lubrication of the
turbocharger).
Cold start, special instructions
If the starter motor does not start to engage immediately

when the key is turned to the START position, stop the
starting attempt and try again after a short while.
IMPORTANT: Starting the tractor when it is very cold the
indicator lamp for blocked hydraulic filters may be
illuminated. Then the oil goes through the by---pass valve
unfiltered. Do not race the engine and avoid using the
linkage until the oil has warmed up so that the indicator
lamp is not lit any longer.
First warm up the engine and hydraulics for a little while at
low engine revs. You can speed up the warming of the
hydraulic system by turning the steering wheel (not to the
limit positions). Do not use the auxiliary hydraulic valves
when the oil is cold.
If you have to start the engine without the aid of the
electric heating of induction air when it is very cold, keep
the starter motor engaged (for a maximum of 30 seconds
at a time) until the engine has started.
Starting the tractor when it is very cold is easier if the
battery is kept in a warm place when not working.
---72---
Never race a cold engine. Run the engine with a light load
until it has reached its normal operating temperature.
IMPORTANT: Always use the engine heater (standard
equipment), when the temperature is below 0C, when
possible.
This ensures the start in cold conditions and reduces the
wear on the engine. 2---3 hours warm up before starting is
enough. When the engine heater is connected to the plug
socket you can hear a hissing sound which means that
the warm up is on.
NOTE: If tractor driving is for a short---distance, make sure
that the battery is charged enough to ensure starting.
E 2.2.
Starting gas
CAUTION: The use of STARTING

AEROSOLS is absolutely forbidden (due to
the automatic glowing). DANGER OF
EXPLOSION.
E 2.3.
following points should be noted:

--- Check that the auxiliary batteries have the same voltage
as the standard batteries.
--- Open the battery plugs to avoid risk of explosion.
---WARNING: A fully charged battery
connected directly to a dead battery can
cause a current surge which can cause the
batteries to explode. The correct procedure
is as follows:
--- Connect the (+) terminal of the auxiliary battery to the
(+) terminal on the tractor battery. Then connect the
other jump lead from the (---) terminal of the auxiliary
battery to the e.g. attaching bolt of the battery ground
cable.
--- When the engine has started, first disconnect the jump
lead between the ground and the (---) terminal of the
auxiliary battery. Then remove the jump lead between
the (+) terminals.
Start the engine using the ignition switch. Always follow
the correct procedure. Never try to start the engine by
short-circuiting leads.
Having started the engine, declutch, select the correct
gear, release the parking brake and select the desired
driving direction. Steadily increase the engine speed, and
release the clutch pedal slowly.

Driving
Keep an eye on the warning lamps and gauges.
E 4.2.
WARNING: Dont turn the starter key to the

STOP position when driving. When the
ignition is off, the parking brake applies and
all wheels lock.
WARNING:
1. Do not keep your foot on the clutch
pedal, or maintain it at a mid---way position.
2. Do not descend slopes with the tractor in
gear and the clutch disengaged.
3. When turning on headlands with heavy,
mounted implements, reduce the engine
speed to 1300 revs/min.
4. If the engine is not running the steering is
not power ---assisted.
--- Select the ratio which gives the optimum fuel
consumption without overloading the engine and the
transmission. Bear in mind at the same time that soil
conditions can vary within a matter of a few yards in the
same field. Select a ratio which allows the engine to
operate comfortably at about 75 % of its maximum
power.
The highest speed ranges for the single gear ratio are in
the speed range table (on page 131).
When engaging the creeper range (LL, alternative
equipment) the tractor must be stationary.
N E35
When driving the shifting can be done normally by using

the HiShift--- switch (1) both in the main gear lever and in
the range gear lever. The engagement is automatic.
WARNING: When coupling implements or
other operations where precise movements
are needed the foot pedal must always be
used.
IMPORTANT: The crawling speed range (LL) can not be

used for bigger drafting force than which is reached with
Low range (M).
WARNING: When using the HiShift --- switch

always be ready to operate the clutch pedal
if needed.
If the engine stops when driving due overload etc., the

current must be switched off before a new start.
E 4.1.
Driving on model fitted with

hydraulic coupling
DANGER: If the tractor engine is left

running be sure not to leave anybody in the
cab as the push buttons can be easily
operated. The parking brake must always be
applied.
(N82h HiTrol, N92h HiTrol)
On models fitted with a hydraulic coupling there is no

need to release the clutch slowly when setting off. Release
the clutch pedal completely and use the accelerator pedal
to set off.
There is no need to release the clutch slowly when
changing gears due to the slip of the hydraulic coupling
the slip of multi---disc clutch can not be measured.
Do not drive at low engine revs when the tractor is heavily
loaded, as the hydraulic coupling slips too much and gets
hot.
IMPORTANT: When parking the hydraulic coupling
tractor with the engine running, do not leave any gear
engaged, as overheating and fire risk of the hydraulic
coupling may occur.

The power shuttle can be also be operated while the

tractor is moving. There is no need to use the clutch pedal
(traditional use of clutch pedal is still possible when
desired).
The engagement of the shuttle is automatic. It stops the
tractor smoothly. The Power shuttle can also be operated
at high speed, but does not automatically start braking
until the speed is under 10 km/h. If the shuttle is going to
be changed when the tractor speed is over 10 km/h, the
chosen direction arrow flashes and the shuttle is in
neutral. When the vehicle speed goes below 10 km/h, the
shuttle engages and the chosen direction arrow shows. If
the shuttle lever is returned to the original direction when
the speed is over 10 km/h, the traction engages
immediately.
It is recommend that power shuttle is operated
however in lower speed, then there is less stress in
the power transmission.
E 4.3.1.
The automatic traction control (1) is useful e.g. in road

driving when stopping at crossings. It is not necessary to
disengage the traction with the speed gear, range gear or
shuttle lever or with the clutch pedal/HiShift--- switch. To
start moving again simply press the accelerator pedal.
Similarly in many working conditions, when the traction
control is engaged, e.g. hydraulic implements can be
used at low revs and then engage the traction by simply
depressing the accelerator pedal.

Programming of Powershift
When needed the desired Powershift---gear can be

pre---programmed to engage automatically (button 2) at
the same time as the power shuttle (pre---programming
(3) is also shown in the display panel). E.g. in loader
working when changing the direction to forward the
Powershift 1 can be engaged and when changing the
direction to backward the Powershift 3 can be engaged. In
the pre---programming situation while driving the
Powershift--- gears can be changed manually, as normal. If
pre---programming is not done, the chosen Powershift is
engaged while changing direction.
68e 11
Because of the Powershift---gearing on the tractors there

are 24 forward and 24 reverse gears and with creeper
gear (alternative equipment) 36 forward and 36 reverse
gears. The Powershift--- push buttons (1) are on the main
gear lever and on the range lever knobs. Powershift--gear changings can be done without depressing the
clutch pedal.
Each speed range can be increased by pressing the hare
button and decreased by pressing the turtle button.
The same automatic selection controls the Powershift--gear changings as the power shuttle. This makes the PS--gear engagement very smooth.
---75---
The display panel displays the engaged Powershift--- gear

(2). The Powershift--- gear can be changed quickly e.g.
from the lowest to the highest by a double click. The
automatic selector shifts smoothly through the
intermediate steps and flashes the number of the speed
range, for which the Powershift is selected, the number
continues to be displayed after the speed range is finally
engaged.

The STOP position of the starter switch can

be used as an EMERGENCY STOP. The
tractor and several movements of the
implements can be stopped if any fault
occurs, by turning the starter key to the
STOP position (the engine stops, all the
wheels lock, the transmission disengages
and the movement of the linkage stops).
In addition when the automatic Powershift is switched on

with the main gears, the separate Speed matching
automatically operates trying to even out speed
differences which are too high by engaging the right
Powershift--- gear. When changing a higher main gear the
Powershift--- gear engages a lower one and vice versa.

engages. When the differential lock is disengaged the
4WD is also disengaged. The 4WD can be engaged and
disengaged while driving without using the clutch pedal.
Four wheel drive is also engaged when braking with both
pedals.
When the automatic 4WD is engaged the 4WD engages
automatically when starting to drive and shuttling. The
4WD is also engaged when using the HiShift---switch and
if the driving speed is under 10 kph. The automatic 4WD
can be disengaged when desired.

Lower the implement (and in cold weather lower links

without implements) and apply the parking brake and
stop the engine.
When the engine is not running, the handbrake is

automatically on independently of the handbrake lever
position. When the handbrake is on, the 4WD is on, all
wheels are braking.
WARNING: If the parking brake cable
breaks or the adjustment is wrong, the
STOP light begins to flash. The fault has to
be repaired/adjusted before continuing
driving (see further instructions on
page 121).
IMPORTANT: Before stopping the engine, reduce the
engine speed to idling, for about one minute, to allow time
for the engine temperature to stabilise. Turn the starter key
to the stop position.

Towing the tractor
If possible towing should be avoided when the engine is

not running, because the pressure lubrication of the
gearbox does not operate. If towing can not be avoided,
the parking brake must be adjusted to off (see Adjusting
parking brake on page 121, the tractor is equipped with
the tools, after this only the brake pedals are working), the
range lever must be in neutral (the rightmost lever) and
the gear lever in gear 4. Towing speed must not exceed

Power take---off (PTO)
Operation of the PTO is described on page 61.

Before attaching implements to the tractor PTO unit, make
sure the implement is designed for 540 R.P.M PTO or
1000 R.P.M PTO.
Implements for 540 r/min (at 1874 ERPM)

--- Normally 6---spline shaft (as standard), diameter 13/8
(35 mm).
--- As alternative equipment it is possible to get at nominal
speed of 540E rpm a power take off, which gives an
economical 540 rpm at 1539 ERPM.
When using the 540E range note, that when increasing
engine revs the PTO shaft can rotate up to 800 r/min.
--- The ISO---norm does not limit the power of 540 r/min
6---spline with a diameter 13/8 (35 mm) PTO. In practice
for power over 50 kW it is better to use a 1000 r/min
output to ensure durability of the PTO shafts.
Implements for 1000 r/min (at 2000 ERPM)

--- Normally 21---spline shaft (extra equipment), diameter
13/8 (35 mm).
68f 9
WARNING: Stop the engine and disengage

the PTO before attaching any implement to
the tractor.
Check that the implements working area is
clear before engaging the PTO.
Heavy use
--- For heavy use power take---off shafts of 13/4 (45 mm)
dia. are recommended.
--- If necessary, a torque limiting clutch with maximum
torque of 1000 Nm should be used.
--- When engaging the PTO wait, until the clutch of PTO
shaft is totally engaged (for 5 seconds) before loading
it, especially when the oil is cold.
WARNING: When a PTO driven implement is

being used no personnel are allowed near
the PTO shaft. Service work on the PTO
shaft should be carried out only with the
PTO disengaged, the engine stopped and
the key removed from the ignition switch.
Working instructions
--- On the tractor both PTO nominal speeds can be used
regardless of the type of shaft fitted to the tractor.
--- Always engage the PTO at a low engine speed in order
to protect the clutch and PTO mechanism.
--- After starting in freezing weather let the tractor run for a
few minutes before engaging the PTO.
--- The power take---off is equipped with a brake, which
prevents the PTO shaft from rotating when the multi-disc
clutch is disengaged.
If the tractor engine stops e.g. for overloading when using
PTO, the ignition switch must be turned off before
re---starting to prevent an unintentional engagement of the
PTO.
WARNING: After the PTO is disengaged the

implement continues to rotate for some time
(regardless of braking).
Do not approach the implement until it has
stopped completely.
IMPORTANT: When the PTO shaft is connected between
the tractor and the implement the implement must be
attached to the tractor. Otherwise the implement can start
to rotate with the PTO shaft.

When the ground speed PTO is engaged the PTO switch

(2) does not function and the warning light on the
instrument panel does not illuminate. For heavy
proportional use (or in heavy PTO use) it is recommended
that the 1 3/4 (45 mm) shaft is used.
The 4WD can be used independently of the ground speed
PTO.
WARNING: When using the proportional
ground speed PTO the speed of the PTO
shaft varies according to the ground speed
of the tractor. When the tractor is reversed
the PTO shaft also rotates in the reverse
direction.
B
A6084---56
Change the PTO shaft by removing the inner circlip (B)

and spacer ring. Pull the shaft out and fit the new shaft
fully home (check that the shaft seal is undamaged). Fit
the spacer ring and circlip (B). Never run tractor without
the PTO shaft. Check that the circlip is correctly
positioned. Change the circlip if damaged.
The proportional ground speed PTO is primarily used in

the low range (M) area. The proportional ground speed
PTO is designed for the highest torque values of the low
range (M) area. In the high range (H) area the
transmission shaft rotates faster, and consequently the
ground speed PTO should be disconnected. In addition
the trailer should be equipped with a means of
disconnecting the drive from the trailer.
---81---
IMPORTANT: When driving with proportional ground

speed PTO, the crawling speed range (LL) can not be
used.
Before putting a trailer with a powered axle into service,
make sure that the drive is compatible with the PTO of
the tractor. The speed of the trailer should be 0---3 % lower
than that of the tractor.
Checking the transmission

ratio of a PTO driven trailer for
use with proportional ground
speed PTO
F 1.3.
1. Select a flat, hard---surfaced area or road.

2. Check tyres for correct pressure
F 2.
3. Remove PTO transmission shaft

4. Fasten wire or tape indicators to the power take---off
shaft on the tractor and to the trailer drive shaft: the
indicators should be aligned.
5. The tractor (together with the trailer) is pulled slowly
forwards: two people should count how many
revolutions the tractor and trailer shaft make. Counting
stops at 100 revolutions of the tractor shaft; the figures
for the tractor and trailer shafts are then compared.
6. If the number of trailer drive shaft revolutions is higher
than 100 (the revolutions of the tractor shaft), the trailer
is slower than the tractor, and vice versa.
7. The trailer should be 0---3 per cent slower, i.e., the
trailer shaft should have revolved 100---103 times. If the
number of revolutions is greater than this, the trailers
braking effect is too great; if it is smaller than 100, the
trailer will tend to push, which can endanger the tractor
steering.
Trailer
Total weight of the trailer = load + empty trailer weight
F 2.1.
The kind of trailer can be connected to the tractor

depends among other things on whether the trailer has
brakes, how much of the trailer weight is on the hitch, the
slackening of the tractor brakes and whether the trailer
has one or more axles.
For further information, contact the dealer.

When loading the hitch be sure that at least 20 % of the

tractor weight is on the front wheels.
Do not exceed the max allowed wheel--- or hitch loading.

hook end lower links = Ball hitch ).
The length of the lifting links can be adjusted by lifting the

levelling screws up and turning them in the required
direction. After adjustment the levelling screws must be
lowered back down to the locked position.
WARNING: Ensure that the hooks latch

correctly.
To enable unlatching of the hook type ends from the cab,

cables can be fitted via the guides on the three---point
linkage unit.
IMPORTANT: If the tractor has automatic lifting links (extra

equipment) and you adjust the right side lifting link shorter, check at the maximum lifting hight, that the check link
does not contact the return oil filter.
The top link has three different attaching holes on the

tractor, and thus it is possible to get different lifting
geometries for different implements. When the top link is
in the lowest hole the implement inclines forwards and the
upper hole gives almost horizontal lifting movement.
When using the hydraulic top link, ensure that it operates
normally when you are attaching an implement. Do not
use the hydraulic top link in the lowest hole in the
mounting bracket, as this may damage the bracket. (It is
possible to get a foul condition in the bracket).

The lifting links can be attached to the lower links at one

of four holes (telescopic lower links have three holes).
Different holes give different lifting ranges and lifting
power for the lower links. In addition, the carrier pin (1)

Lift/stop/lower switch
(Autocontrol switch)
F 4.1.
The lift/stop/lower switch (2) has 3 positions. When the

symbol side is pressed down the lower links are lowered
to the height which is set by the position control knob
(1). When the opposite side to the symbol side is
pressed down the lower links raise to the height set by the
transport height selector (6). The lower links stop
moving when the switch is set in the centre position.
F 4.1.1.
Activating the linkage
The position control is activated by pressing down both

edges of the lift/stop/lower switch (2). After this the
diagnosis light goes out and the lower links move slowly
to the position which has been pre---set. The linkage has
to be activated every time the tractor has been switched
off or when the push buttons mounted on the mudguards
or inner switch for connecting implement in the cab have
been used.
F 4.2.
Position control
The position control is used with implements which run on

the ground (mowers, rakes, sprayers etc.).
The LCD---display of the Agroline instrument panel shows

the position of the lower links as percentage (0---100),
when the AC---display is selected on the top line using the
change over switch, see page 49.
NOTE: The implement can be lifted up by switching the
lift/stop/lower switch (2) to the lift position (= transport
position, the upper position chosen by knob 6) and
lowered back to the same depth (lower position set by the
position control, 1) by switching to the lower position.
NOTE: The control panel is fitted with lights (7) to indicate
whether the lower links are being lifted or lowered.
F 4.3.
The transport height selector (6) can be used to limit the

lifting height. Switching the lift/stop/lower switch to the lift
position or using the position control knob (1) will result in
the links being lifted to the upper limit set by the selector.
The numbers of the position control knob (1) and
transport height selector (6) correspond with each other.
Nine different heights can be selected using this knob.
This selector does not limit the lifting range when the push
buttons on the mudguards or inner switch for connecting
implement are used.
NOTE: When the position control is being used the draft

control selector (4) must be set to the P position. This
ensures that the linkage will remain in the position
selected without draft control.
F 4.4.
The lower links are raised when the position control knob
(1) is turned clockwise and lowered when it is turned
Setting transport height
Floating---position
The floating position is used when working with certain

types of implements, which have to follow the ground
---86---
surface (e.g. sowing machine, roller etc.). The position

control knob (1) is turned to the extreme counter--clockwise position and the lower links can then move
freely up and down following the movements of the
implement. The lower indicator light (7) is lit continuously.
IMPORTANT: When working with implements, which
follow the ground surface, use the FLOATING position,
otherwise the implement may be damaged.
F 4.5.
F 4.6.
Lowering speed control
The choice of lowering speed depends on the type of

implement being used. A slow lowering speed must be
used with heavy implements. The lowering speed is
increased as the knob (5) is turned clockwise and vice
versa. The lowering speed is independent of the load.
Override switch for position

control knob = forced lowering
switch
F 4.7.
Draft control
Draft control is used when working with implements that

operate below the surface of the ground (ploughs,
cultivators etc.). The draft control sensitivity is set by
turning the selector (4) from the position (P) to one of six
different sensitivity positions (1---6).
On Autocontrol, the linkage is adjusted to regulate the
working depth, 1 = small influence ... 6 = very large
influence.
Position 3 is normally used for ploughing. If larger draft
control is required, position 4 can be used instead and the
ploughing depth is not significantly affected.
The override switch for position control knob (8) can be

used on jobs, where lower links have to be temporarily
lower than the value which has been set by the control
knob. This is useful e.g. when ploughing. This switch
allows quicker entry of the plough to the correct depth at
the beginning and better maintenance of depth at the exit
from the end.
F 4.8.
NOTE: The ploughing depth can be adjusted with the

position control knob.
Drive balance control switch

A
The lift/lower indicator lights (7) show the speed at which

the draft control is operating.
NOTE: The lower links allow a certain amount of sideways

movement to the implement, and this also affects the
range of the draft control. Therefore the sideways
movement of the links should be adjusted to about 70 mm
(3 inches) at the ends of the arms.
NOTE: When draft control is not in use the selector switch
should be turned to the P position.
When the draft resistance exerted by the implement on
the lower links rises to the value set, the linkage lifts the
implement in order to counteract the increase in
resistance to keep it constant.
When the draft control is operating the weight of the
implement is automatically shifted to maintain traction. If
pulling resistance increases the hydraulic lift raises the
implement and some of the weight is transferred to the
rear wheels. Thus the driving wheels maintain maximum
traction.
10
N F48
The best use of the drive balance control is in driving at

high speed when a heavy implement is attached to the
three---point linkage. It can also be used on the field.
The drive balance control is activated, when switch (9) is
turned to position A (indicator light 10 lights). Then when
lifting the linkage with the lift/stop/lower switch (2), the
drive balance control is on, when the tractor is running.

the tractor. During adjustment, stop the engine and
prevent the tractor from moving).

Return coupling
When using the valves as single---action valves, the +

quick couplings are under pressure. The quick---action
couplings are under pressure when the levers are pulled
towards the seat.
A
B
N F52
N F53
For single action, used for tipping a trailer, it is

recommended to use the second valve (the valve must be
adjusted to single action). Connect the probe to coupling
B. When the lever is pulled towards the seat the trailer will
raise and vice versa. With this lever it is possible to quickly
lower the trailer by pushing the lever away from the seat
into the float position (NOTE: This position is locked ie;
the lever will not return to neutral by itself).
The tractor has, as standard, an auxiliary hydraulic return

coupling A (1/2 inch). If the back pressure is too high, a
one inch or 3/4 inch coupling is also available. For
information about back pressures, see Technical
Specifications.
NOTE: When using auxiliary hydraulics, the return
coupling of the implement has to be connected to the
return coupling (A) of the tractor.
When using only one double acting valve use the front
valve.
F 5.1.2.
F 5.3.
Position locking
The foremost valve is position locked in the out---position

(lever pulled towards the drivers seat) when the knob 3 is
turned inwards (remove the cover A). However, the lever
can be returned manually.
NOTE: Do not keep valve adjusted in locked position if it
is not necessary.
WARNING: To avoid serious injury or death
due to falling loads resulting from
inadvertent raising or roll---back of the
loader, DO NOT connect loader hydraulics
to any tractor auxiliary valve that has
detents which cannot be locked out or
removed, except for the float function in the
loader lower circuit. If the tractor is
equipped with such a valve, a dedicated,
properly configured loader valve MUST be
installed.
The valve control devices (the levers and operating

switches) and quick---action couplings are marked in the
same way with colour codes.
IMPORTANT: Clean the quick---action couplings
thoroughly before connecting any auxiliary hydraulic
equipment. The caps on the couplings should be fitted
when auxiliary equipment is not connected.
On the market there are also male connectors, not according to standards, which do not open correctly the quick
couplings. This may occur e.g as slow lowering when
using the tipping device.
DANGER: When auxiliary cylinders and
hydraulic motors are connected, ensure that
the hoses are attached to the correct
couplings. If the hoses are incorrectly
attached the functions will be reversed.
WARNING: It is prohibited to transport
anything on auxiliary hydraulic valves while
driving on the road. The load, the trailer link
steering etc. have to be locked (e.g.
mechanically).
When connecting the loader to the standard valves the

lowering of loader lift/lower has to be connected to the
floating side of the valve block 2 (position locking).
F 5.1.3.
WARNING: Implements connected to the

linkage or the auxiliary hydraulic system
must be lowered during maintenance.
Floating position
The rearmost valve has a floating position when the lever

is pushed outwards. Oil can then circulate freely and the
implement follows the ground contours.
Action to be taken during

operation
All quick---action couplings are the type ISO7241---1

and serie A.
As additional equipment two extra valves, an oil flow
distribution valve and a trailer brake valve can be fitted to
---89---
the tractor. The following types of valves can be fitted:

--- Valves are the same as the standard valves.
--- Adjustable oil flow distribution valve, this enables
simultaneous use of two auxiliary valves or
simultaneous use of the hydraulic lift and auxiliary
hydraulics.
--- Valve which has a pressure return function (Kick---out).
--- Valve for trailer brakes which takes pressurized oil from
the high pressure circuit when the brake pedals are
pressed.

Hydraulic motor
WARNING: Before connecting the hydraulic

motor release the pressure by switching off
the tractor and move the levers to their
extremes, if the implement and the safety
rules allow to do this.
When rotating the hydraulic motor only in one direction
F 6.
the return coupling can be connected to the tractor return

coupling without the shock valve.
When rotating the hydraulic motor in both directions (=
connecting to both +/--- ports), the separate shock valves
have to be mounted to the hydraulic motor, if not already
standard in hydraulic motor.
Notice the temperature of the transmission oil !
Attention must be paid to the oil temperature, because
high temperature is bad for the lubrication and due to that
the pump or the engine can be damaged.
The recommended working temperature is under 80C,
but the absolute top limit is 93C, when the engine has to
be stopped (the transmission oil temperature can be seen
in the instrument).
IMPORTANT: If the hydraulic motor rotating decelerates
because of the load, the load must be decreased. In this
situation the excess of the pump capacity runs through
the pressure relief valve, the oil gets overheated quickly
and the pump may be damaged.
Attaching implements
When attaching implements to the three---point linkage

(this also applies to the drawbar) the lift/lower
push---buttons located on the mudguards or inner switch
for connecting implement in the cab must be used.
DANGER: Before engaging or disengaging
an implement turn the draft control selector
to the position control P position. In the
sensitive positions even a small turn of the
position control knob may cause an
unexpected linkage movement.
Always use the push---buttons situated on
mudguards or inner switch for connecting
implements when engaging or disengaging
implements.
When engaging or disengaging implements
with push---buttons, always stand outside
the implement and beside the tractor. Never
stand on the implement or between the
implement and the tractor.
travelling direction, increases fuel consumption and

causes loss of power because of wheel slip.
When attaching implements to the hydraulic lift, make
sure that at least 20 % of the tractor weight still rests on
the front wheels. When required use a sufficient number of
front ballast weights.
F 6.1.
When PTO---powered implements are used, always make

sure that the PTO shaft is of the correct length, so that it
can work at full deflection vertically and horizontally. If the
shaft is too long it will cause damage. Follow the
instructions of the manufacturer when fitting the shaft.
NOTE: After these buttons or inner switch for connecting

implements have been used the position control system
must be activated by operation of the lift/stop/lower
switch.
DANGER: The implement has to be
mechanically connected to the tractor ( the
lower links and the top link) before
connecting the quick---action couplings.
WARNING: When coupling or decoupling an
implement it should be supported to
prevent it from falling.
Make sure that the implement is correctly attached before
putting it to work and that the implement does not strike
against the cab when raised to the top position. When
transport driving with implements carried by the hydraulic
lift, the check links must be locked with pins.
Always follow the implement manufacturers instructions.
Remember that correct adjustment of harrows, ploughs
and cultivators greatly reduces the required power. An
incorrectly adjusted plough for instance creates a badly
shaped furrow, tries to twist the tractor away from the

DANGER: When fastening the PTO shaft

check that its shield is undamaged. Always
fasten the shield to a stationary part of the
tractor frame or implement.

--- Keep the stabilising links free when starting. When

the plough has centralised and is running true set
the pins (A) in the long holes in the stabilising links.
The draft control will not operate if the lower links
are fixed.
IMPORTANT: If the links remain in the fixed holes damage
may occur, any sideways force will increase draft and
consequently fuel consumption.
--- Adjust the lowering speed to a suitable rate. Adjust the
plough according to the manufacturers instructions.
--- Choose the draft control position 3 or 4 and use the
position control knob to choose correct ploughing
depth. After this you can lift the plough to the transport
position and lower it directly to the correct ploughing
depth using the lift/stop/lower switch.
--- If wheel slip increases, turn the draft control selector
clockwise to increase sensitivity. The automatic weight
transfer to the rear wheels now increases and the tyres
get a better grip. After that turn the draft control selector
back to its original position (counter---clockwise).
NOTE: The position control knob should not be used
when increased wheel slip occurs. Only use the draft
control selector.
HINT: Write down the settings found to be optimal in the
table below for further use:

Track width: With all plough types the most suitable
distance between tyres when ploughing with the wheels
on one side in the furrow is the distance between the
insides of the rear tyres which corresponds to the width of
three furrows (slices). The distance between the insides of
the front tyres should be 10---15 cm greater than that of
the rear wheels.
E.g. 16 plough:
3 x 16 (40 cm) = 48 (120 cm)
Distance between rear tyres 120---130 cm
Distance between front tyres 130---135 cm

Points to note when adjusting

ploughs
Disc coulters: Adjust the disc coulters so that they run

10---15 mm (0.4---0.6 in) outside the land side of the
plough body and about 10---15 mm (0.4---0.6 in) above the
point of the plough, but make sure that the bearing does
not drag on the ground.
Cross shaft: Adjust the cross shaft so that the bends are
vertical (the left---hand bend should be pointing upwards
---91---
and the right---hand bend downwards). Adjust the width of

the first furrow (slice) by moving the plough on the cross
shaft. The width of the furrow (slice) should be the same
as the width that the plough is designed to cut.
Support wheel: Adjust the support wheel of the plough
so that it presses lightly against the ground and thereby
prevents unwanted increase in the ploughing depth where
the soil is soft.
The upper link: The length of the upper link can be
adjusted with the turnbuckle. The upper link should be
attached so that it is parallel to the ground and to the
travel direction of the tractor.
The lower links: Seen from the side. The lower links
should be horizontal or the front ends slightly higher than
the rear ends.
The levelling screw: The sideways inclination of the
implement is adjusted with the levelling screws.
For more information, see the implement manufacturers
manuals.
F 7.1.2.
F 7.2.
The following exceptions from the instructions for the fully

mounted plough apply:
--- Adjust the lowering speed by turning the lowering
speed selector.
--- Adjust the lifting links to same length.
--- Adjust the correct ploughing depth of the rear plough
with the support wheel of the plough.
--- Fit the adjustable stops on the plough support wheel
and adjust the height of the front end of the plough with
the position control knob so that the plough always
returns to the correct ploughing depth.
A single---acting control valve is sufficient for lifting and
lowering the rear end of a semi---mounted plough.
NOTE: Leave the control valve in the lowering position
until the rear plough has reached the correct ploughing
depth and the support wheel has reached the stop device.
Examples of how to use the

upper link
F 7.3.
Ploughing with a reversible

plough
The following exceptions from the instructions for the fully

mounted plough apply:
--- Select a suitable slow lowering speed (turn the selector
counter---clockwise).
--- Adjust the lower links to exactly the same height above
the ground before attaching the plough, about
30 cm under the cross shaft.
During ploughing the leveling screw must not be used
to adjust the leveling.
Lifting height:
When transport driving with, for example, long ploughs
where the surface is very uneven, the rear plough may
catch the ground. Increased lifting height is obtained by
connecting the top link as high up as possible on the
plough. If necessary, it is also possible to shorten the
lifting links.
Lifting force:
Maximum lifting force at the rear end of the lower links is
obtained by connecting the top link as parallel as possible
to the lower links.
Ploughing depth:
It is sometimes a problem to maintain a constant
ploughing depth when the soil is hard (clay or soil mixed
with clay), it is also difficult to make the plough go down
to the desired ploughing depth. Under these
circumstances it is important that the weight transferred to
the tractor is kept as low as possible. Therefore, connect
the upper link as close to the horizontal position as
possible.
If the upper link is connected horizontally, the plough
will maintain the set ploughing depth even if the
ground is hard.

N F58
Always read the plough adjusting instructions --- and

ploughing instructions and adjust accordingly.
--- Set a suitable lowering speed for the implement with the
selector (4) (e.g. position 4).
--- Choose a suitable transport height for implement with
selector (5) (e.g. position 8).
--- Choose a suitable position with the draft control selector
(3) e.g. position 4.
---Set a suitable working depth with the position control
knob (1) (e.g. position 4 or 5). After selecting these
settings the plough can be lifted and lowered to correct
depth using the lift/stop/lower switch (2).
--- If wheel slip is excessive, turn the draft control selector
(3) temporarily to a larger value i.e. clockwise. When
slipping decreases turn the selector back to the original
position.
--- If the lift/lower indicator lights sometimes light slightly
turn the draft control selector (3) clockwise. Check and
adjust the ploughing depth if necessary using the
position control knob (1).
--- If further adjustments are required it is possible to use
the passing switch (7) as a position control. Especially
when starting ploughing at field ends by momentarily
using the passing switch, the plough will go to the right
ploughing depth quicker. In the same way when
finishing at the field ends the right ploughing depth can
be maintained at the end of ploughing.
--- It is useful that the drive balance control switch (8) is in
the balance position. In this case when lifting the
linkage to the upper position at the end of the run, the
drive balance is working.
