OPERATION

5. Starting the Tractor

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

Start tractor only when properly seated in the Tractor seat. Starting a tractor in gear can result in injury or death. Read the Tractor operators manual for proper starting instructions.

The operator must have a complete understanding of the placement, function, and operational use of all tractor 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:

Locate the ignition switch

Locate the light control lever

Locate the engine shut off control

Locate the engine throttle control

Locate the brake pedals and the clutch

Locate the parking brake

Locate the PTO control

Locate the 3-point hitch control lever

Locate the hydraulic remote control levers

Before starting the tractor ensure the following:

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

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

The parking brake is on.

The 3-point hitch control lever is in the lowered position.

The hydraulic remote control levers are in the neutral position.

The tractor transmission levers are in park or neutral.

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. OPS-L-0025
