USING THE AUXILIARY HYDRAULIC VALVE Some tractors may be equipped with an auxiliary hydraulic valve package. This package provides two hydraulic circuits for operating optional equipment that can be installed on the tractor. The male and female hydraulic couplers, located beneath the right running board, are marked with color coded washers that should match the color coded hydraulic lines of Cub Cadet equipment. IMPORTANT: If color coding is not present, note that the inner hydraulic couplers represent one hydraulic circuit and the outer couplers the other. Do not cross connect circuits when connecting hydraulic lines of optional equipment.

Raise the lower links of the three point hitch to their highest position to prevent interference with the towed equipment. Use the auxiliary hydraulic control handle located on the right fender as follows: · Pull the handle rearward to raise the front hitch or front loader boom. · Push the handle forward to lower front hitch or front loader boom. · Push the handle fully forward until it locks in the detent position to place the front hitch or front loader boom in the float position. · Push the handle to the right to angle (if equipped) the front hitch to the right or dump the loader bucket. · To adjust the seat, pivot the seat adjustment lever to the left and hold while repositioning the seat to the desired position. After repositioning the seat, release the lever to lock the seat in position. Slide the seat either slightly forward or rearward to assure it is locked or until engagement of the lock is felt. See Figure 25. BUCKLE LINK Adjust the final length of the seat belt using the adjuster clip, buckle link, and upper belt webbing on the right half of the belt. · To lengthen the belt, hold the ends of the adjuster clip and tip upward the side of the clip toward the buckle link. While holding the clip, pull the upper webbing of the belt through the clip toward the buckle link. Hold the belt and pull the buckle link to the left to remove the slack in the upper webbing of the belt between the adjuster clip and the link.
