New to the forum, new to tractors. First question in a line of dumb questions...please bear with me as I learn.
What function do I engage the clutch on this machine?

I have about 70 hrs on my YT359C and I have not used the clutch even once. Unlike a hydrostatic transmission these tractors will not stop if you simply remove your foot from the accelerator pedal, it will continue to “creep” forward so The clutch can be used to instantly stop power to the wheels or to instantly stop power to the PTO. Other then that I don’t see myself ever using it.
