4. STARTING THE TRACTOR

The operator must have a complete understanding of the placement, function, and operational use of all tractor and boom operating controls before starting the tractor. Review the tractor operator’s manual and consult an authorized dealer for tractor operation instructions if needed.

Essential Tractor Controls:

¾Locate the ignition key/switch

¾Locate the engine shut off control

¾Locate the hydraulic control levers

¾Locate the light control lever

¾Locate the brake pedals and clutch

¾Locate the PTO control lever

¾Locate the 3-point hitch control lever

¾Locate the boom operating controls (joystick or valve bank)

Before starting the tractor ensure the following:

¾Conduct all pre-start operation inspection and service according to the tractor operator’s manual.

¾Make sure all guards, shields, and other safety devices are securely in place.

¾The parking brake is on.

¾The tractor transmission levers are in park or neutral.

¾The boom operating controls are in the neutral and off positions.

¾The PTO control lever is disengaged.

¾The hydraulic remote control levers are in the neutral position.

Refer to the tractor owner’s manual for tractor starting procedures. Only start the tractor while seated and belted in the tractor operator’s seat. Never bypass the ignition switch by short circuiting the starter solenoid. After the tractor engine is running, avoid accidental contact with the tractor transmission to prevent sudden and unexpected tractor movement.

DANGER! Never run the Tractor engine in a closed building or without adequate ventilation. The exhaust fumes can be hazardous to your health.
