FUSES AND SHORTS
There are 5 fuses on the D18/50 tractor. The 20Amp (yellow)
charging circuit, the mid positioned 20Amp (yellow) lights,
ignition and safety switches. The 20Amp (yellow) electric lift for
cutter deck and auxiliary lift. The forth 20Amp fuse is connected
in line for the net emptying system.
To check – remove fuse and check small window, there should be
an unbroken metal strip bridging the gap (fig 2).
Note – If the 20Amp (centre) fuse blows when the ignition key is
turned this means there is a short between the red and blue
coloured wire and the body of the tractor. The usual places to
investigate are:
• The electrical PTO and socket.
• Seat switch wires.
• The brake micro switch.
If fuses blow after these areas have been checked call
your dealer.
PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARD
There are 2x10Amp Barrel fuses on the circuit board (fig 3)
which can be reached by removing the cover (fig 1). These two
fuses control lights and the Electromagnetic Blade Clutch. If the
problem is not a fuse and you cannot see any loose connections –
call your dealer.
ELECTROMAGNETIC BLADE CLUTCH
If the blade clutch disengages without being switched off these
are the possible causes:
• You have got off the seat – the safety switch will disengage
the cutter.
• The battery has lost charge and will not longer hold the clutch
in operation.
• Fuse blown on printed circuit board – see fig 3.
• Faulty safety switch or break in wire – see your dealer.
