How The Hand Controls (SDLA) System Works

Speed: Accelerate & Brake

The further forward or backward you push the control, the faster or slower the tractor will go. Bring the controls to the center to brake or stop.

Direction: Forward & Reverse

Push the controls forward to make the tractor move forward. Pull the controls backward to make the tractor move backward.

Lift: Lift Front Attachments

Pull the control inward to lift the front attachment. Push the control outward to lower the front attachment. Push the control to its center resting position to enable the front attachment to float on the ground, independent of the tractor.

Auxiliary: Hydraulic Control

Push or pull the rear S.D.L.A. control in or out to control the hydraulic auxiliary front attachments.

For Example: Hydraulically angling the dozer blade or hydraulically rotating the snow blower chute.
