Starting machine Move gear selector to desired gear which will be indicated on display and drive
away.Inching pedal can be used also in a manner similar to a mechanical clutch.
Most operators will find this to be a very natural operation.
Inching pedal Use when starting or stopping.Use for grader finishing work requiring “Creeper
gear” or very slow speeds.Use for very slow ground speed work to increase
engine speed for hydraulic performance (This should rarely be necessary
because of the wide range performance of the hydraulic system).WARNING: Do
not abruptly depress and release inching pedal to start a heavy load or free a
stuck machine.
Starting engine Transmission must be in neutral before engine can be started.
Down shifting Downshift one range at a time do not lug down the engine below 1700 RPM.
Watch tachometer. Power shift, do not use inching pedal.
Upshifting Upshift normally as speed, grade, and traction conditions permit. Power shift, do
not use inching pedal.
Shifting while descending During transport, while descending short, steep grades, the engine may be driven
steep grades from the ground by the wheels. In order to maintain a higher speed it could be
necessary to upshift to protect the engine while using brakes for retardation.
Normally the safe and recommended procedure is to descend slowly using a
lower gear together with the brakes, particularly for longer distances.
Shifting forward to reverse Operator can make these shifts as required by normal working conditions. The
and reverse to forward transmission will automatically select the appropriate gear in the opposite
direction and it has built in shock protection.
Parking brake Transmission will not engage a gear with park brake on.
Lugging engine down under Do not repeatedly depress and release inching pedal to force movement of
heavy blade or ripper load machine.

1. Turn on air conditioner only when the vent is not blocked.
2. Make sure the evaporator vents are not blocked.
3. Should system perform below specification, inspect:
the system refrigerant pressure;
the operation of evaporator vent and fan unit;
the evaporator for obstructions.
4.Operate air conditioning unit for at least 10 minutes/week.
5. When the engine is at high rpm, operate fan at maximum
speed.
6. Periodically check the external cleanliness of the
condenser vents (never operate the condenser with 20% or
more vent blockage).
7. Close all doors and windows when operating the air
conditioner.
8. For fast cooling, use the cabin internal air (recirculation
control).

behind the blade in severe operation conditions.
Although the grader permits the circle to turn 3600, most of

the grading operations are done with the blade between 150
and 450 in relation to the work direction.
Increasing the angle of the blade reduces the side movement

of the material cut by the blade. However this permits deeper
cuts and more "severe" grading.
The changes of the angle of attack, blade pitch is also very

important for productivity.
The blade with the involute "ROLL-AWAY" profile maintains

the capacity to roll material, with the top of the blade inclined
to the back.
Changing blade angle while cutting, generates side forces on

the machine. These forces should be compensated by leaning
the front wheels and/or articulating the frame in the direction
of the blade cutting forces.
The NON-ARTICULATED frame is normaly used for grading

large areas and for road maintenance and conservation.
With the frame ARTICULATED, the turning radius is reduced,

making machine control easier in restricted areas. In addition,
a more precise control of material spreading is permitted.

acceptable operating condition. Use articulation of frame and

avoided by articulating the frame positioning the driving
wheels in a more favorable position.

RG140, RG170, RG200 MAINTENANCE
GENERAL
Always check oil level and drain or fill all the reservoirs with
the machine on a flat ground.
The intervals specified here refer to normal operating

conditions. During the initial period of use (break-in) and
under severe working conditions, the servicing intervals
need to be shortened. Consult your New Holland Construction
dealer for more information.
Drain the engine oil immediately after shutting off the engine
so the oil is warm and flows more easily.
After refilling system at oil change intervals, the oil should

be checked only after engine has been run at low idle for a
few minutes. This procedure insures that the oil cooler,
filters, lines, etc., are completely full before the oil level check
is made.
