Left Brake Pedal - The left brake pedal disengages the transmission and brakes the machine. This permits higher engine speed for better hydraulic response.Depress the left brake pedal when positioning and operating the dozer blade at the same time.Release the pedal to re-engage the transmission and to release the brake. Right Brake Pedal - The right brake pedal slows down the machine ground speed for normal braking.Depress the right brake pedal for normal machine braking.Release the pedal to release the brake.Accelerator Pedal
Depress the pedal to increase engine speed.Release the pedal to decrease engine speed.Governor Control - (If Equipped)
Accelerator Pedal (1) - If the governor hand control is not used, depress the pedal to increase engine speed. Release the pedal to decrease engine speed. Governor Hand Control (2) - Push the button down on top of the control. Raise the control to increase rpm (engine speed). Lower the control to decrease the rpm and return to low idle. Release the button at the desired rpm.Turn the control knob (clockwise) to decrease rpm, and (counterclockwise) to increase rpm. This method can be used for varying the rpm slightly. Decelerator Pedal (3) - When the pedal is pushed down, it lifts the accelerator pedal and decreases the rpm to low idle. When the pedal is released, the engine speed will return to the speed set by the governor hand control.Transmission Direction and Speed Control
Direction Selector
