Troy-Bilt TB 2454 Hydro Benutzerhandbuch

NOTE: This Operator’s Manual covers several models. Tractor 

features may vary by model. Not all features in this manual are 

applicable to all tractor models and the tractor depicted may 

differ from yours.
NOTE: All references in this manual to the left or right side and 

front or back of the tractor are from the operating position only. 

Exceptions, if any, will be specified.

1.  Engage the transmission bypass rod to move the tractor 

manually without starting it. The transmission bypass rod is 

located on the rear of the tractor, on the frame. Engage the 

bypass rod by pulling out. See Figure 3-1.

NOTE: If the tractor will not move or does not move freely 

when pushing check if the bypass lever is fully open.
NOTE: The transmission will NOT engage when the 

hydrostatic bypass rod is pulled out. Return the rod to its 

normal position prior to operating the tractor. If the tractor 

will not move when pushing on the forward/reverse pedals, 

or moves slowly, check to see of the bypass valve is on.

Never tow your tractor. Towing the 

tractor with the rear wheels on the ground may 

cause severe damage to the transmissions. 

2.  Disengage the bypass rod by pushing the rod back in after 

moving the tractor. See Figure 3-1.
