CAUTION: Lead-acid batteries generate
explosive gases. Keep sparks, flame and
smoking materials away from batteries.
Always wear eye protection when around
batteries.
If your battery is too weak to start the engine, it should be
recharged. If “jumper cables” are used for emergency
starting, follow this procedure:
IMPORTANT; YOUR TRACTOR IS EQUIPPED WITH A 12
VOLT NEGATIVE GROUNDED SYSTEM. THE OTHER
VEHICLE MUST ALSO BE A 12 VOLT NEGATIVE
GROUNDED SYSTEM. DO NOT USE YOUR TRACTOR
BATTERY TO START OTHER VEHICLES.
TO ATTACH JUMPER CABLES -
•
Connect each end of the RED cable to the POSITIVE
(-
1-) terminal of each battery, taking care not to short
against chassis.
• Connect one end of the BLACK cable to the NEGA­
TIVE (-) terminal of fully charged battery.
• Connect the other end of the BLACK cable to a panel
bolt on the left side of the chasis, away from the fuel
tank and battery.
TO REMOVE CABLES, REVERSE ORDER -
• BLACK cable first from chassis and then from the fully
charged battery.
• RED cable last from both batteries.
