Read articles →This is a redo of an earlier, rougher video, now with voiceover explaining the controls on a work tractor (not the creator's own) rather than a polished walkthrough. It covers starting procedure, the power reverser, range and gear selectors, clutch use, and hand/foot throttle placement in real detail. Good for a first-time renter or buyer wanting to understand basic 5065E controls, not for specs, pricing, or implement work.
Posted by the JD Tractor channel, an operator explaining controls on a tractor used at work rather than a dealer or owner showcasing their own machine.
Make sure the power reverser is in neutral, the gear selector is in park, and the range lever is in neutral. Then insert the key and turn it, and it starts right up.
If the reverser is set before selecting range and gear, the tractor thinks it is still in neutral and won't move. Select range and gear first, then engage forward or reverse.
No, there is no actual reverse gear. A power reverser lever is flipped back and forth to choose forward or reverse direction.
The clutch is required when changing ranges and gears, though gears can be changed on the fly while range changes require stopping.
