The parking brake is located on the left side of the tractor as shown in Figure IV. To set the parking brake depress the clutch-brake pedal as far as possible and push the parking brake down. To release the brake depress the clutch-brake pedal.
BRAKE ADJUSTMENT
The brake band, located on the left side of the transmission, brakes the transmission and in turn stops the wheels.
To adjust, depress clutch brake pedal and move parking brake lever forward into the engaged position. Tighten nut on brake rod until both rear wheels skid when tractor is pushed - parking brake engaged. Tighten nut another ~ turn. The brake and parking brake are now properly adjusted. See Fig. II.

the belt guard should clear the belt by not more than ).52 of an inch. See Fig. III. To make this adjustment bend the belt guides with a pair of pliers.
FIGURE III
ATTACHING TOOLS Complete information on the assembly, attachment,
operation and service of the many attaching tools will be provided with each attachment.
CARE OF TRACTOR 1. Keep tractor greased and oiled regularly. Re
fer to Fig. IV for the location of grease fittings. Check transmission and engine case oil Ivels.
2. Keep engine air cleaner clean. This will add to engine life.
3. Keep tires properly inflated. See previous instructions.
4. Keep tractor covered and in a dry place when not in use.
S. Keep grass and dirt out of engine cowling as these will stop the flow of air and decrease engine life.
6. LIGHTS. To replace head light bulbs remove the four screws holding the lens, push down and rotate the bulb to the left, it will then come out. Replace with # 1156 bulb. The lights may go off when the hood is raised, this is because it loses ground contact.
7. CLUTCH-BRAKE PEDAL ADJUSTMENT. The clutch-brake pedal rod may be turned in or out to adjust the pedal to operator's desired position. Remove pin from rod and turn rod in or out for adjustment. There are also two holes in the pedal to adjust for travel. The upper hole is for a short movement of travel, the lower hole is for a long movement.
S. When replacing belts or mounting drive implements make sure all pulleys are in line.
9. BATTERY. Check electrolyte level periodically. If tractor has been in storage it may be necessary to recharge.
10. Your tractor is only as good as the service you give it. See your Wheel Horse Dealer for a thorough check-up after each season of use.
11. When replacing belts be sure to purchase genuine Wheel Horse belts, as these belts are specifically designed for each application. (NOTE: Make sure all pulleys are in line.)
12. To raise seat/fender unit push latch down. See Fig. IV.
... _."'. -""._."" .""- ..... ~ -..... ""._._ ...... --" ... _ ... 8. Take precautions when leaving machine un
attended (to avoid accidental starting, rolling away, accidental dropping of any attachment, etc.)
9. Disengage power to any attachment whenever it is not in use, or when traveling from one work area to another.
10. Stay alert for holes and other hidden hazards. Know what is behind you, before backing up.
11. Beware of steep slopes; reduce speed on all side slopes and sharp turns, to prevent tipping or losi ng control.
12. Don't stop or start suddenly when going uphill or downhill.
