Operation of the foot throttle overrides the hand throttle (25 fig. 3.1) setting when increasing the
engine speed. When the foot throttle is released, the engine returns to the speed set by the hand
throttle. When foot throttle is used the hand throttle should be brought to the closed position.

independently (to aid turning in confined spaces) or locked together using latch to provide a master
pedal for normal braking. For independent braking, disengage the latch (4). Then the inner pedal (2)
actuates the brake of rear L.H. wheel and the outer pedal (3)
– the brake of rear R.H. wheel.
Clutch pedal (5)
When this pedal is fully pressed, the drive to the wheels will be disengaged. Always depress the
clutch pedal to engage or disengage a gear ratio. Clutch pedal must be depressed fully every time
any of the three gear levers (main, range or shuttle) is operated.
