TO START ENGINE WITH A WEAK BATTERY

_hbcAIJTION: Lead-acid batteries generate explosive gases. Keep spanks,flame and smoking materials away from batteries. Always wear eye protection when around batteries.

If your battery is too weak to startthe engine, it

should be recharged. (See "BA'I-I'ERY"in the MAINTENANCE section of this manual).

If "jumper cables" are used for emergency starling, follow this procedure:

IMPORTANT: Your tractor is equipped with a 12 volt negative grounded system. The other vehical must also be a 12 volt negative grounded system. Do not use your tractor battery to start other vehicles.

TO A'I-rACHJUMPER CABLES -

1.Connect each end of the RED cable to the POSITIVE (+) terminal of each

battery, taking care not to short against chassis.

2.Connect one end of the BLACK cable to the NEGATIVE (-) terminal of fully charged battery.

3.Connect the other end of the BLACK cable to good CHASSIS GROUND, away from fuel tank and battery.

TO REMOVE CABLES, REVERSE ORDER-
