Moving The Tractor Manually - Troy-Bilt Horse Manual Del Operador

Moving The Tractor Manually

Your tractor's transmission is equipped with a hydrostatic relief
valve for occasions when it is necessary to move the tractor
manually. Activating this valve forces the fluid in the transmission
to bypass its normal route, allowing the rear tires to "freewheel."
To engage the hydrostatic relief valve, proceed as follows:
1. Locate the hydrostatic bypass rod in the rear of the tractor.
See Fig. 5-2.
2. Pull the hydrostatic bypass rod outward, then down to lock
it in place.
NOTE: The transmission will NOT engage when the hydrostatic
bypass rod is pulled out. Return the rod to its normal position
prior to operating the tractor.
IMPORTANT:
Never attempt to move the tractor manually
without first engaging the hydrostatic relief valve. Doing so will
result in serious damage to the tractor's transmission.
