OPERATION
C-1
The VENTRAC 4200 VXD is an innovative
all-wheel drive, Compact Articulated Tractor (CAT)
(Figure 1)
. Its innovative design offers many
advantages and some variables from conventional
compact utility tractors. The differences make it
VERY important for the operator to read and
understand this operational manual in order to
facilitate safe, enjoyable and effective operation of
the VENTRAC 4200!
The first sight of the VENTRAC 4200 VXD reveals
its low profile, four (4) identical drive tires and the
articulated frame. Less obvious is the easy-to-use
Minute Mount
Front Hitch and PTO drive that
makes frequent use of many different attachments
a breeze!
The tractor is designed with a low bi-level foot
platform, and openness between dash and
fenders to make entering and exiting easy for the
operator from either side; however, right side
entering and exiting is somewhat restricted by the
control levers. Always put the Control Selector
(Figure 2)
DOWN in PARK BRAKE position
before leaving the tractor seat. This assures the
neutral locking of the directional control and park
brake engagement.
