Main Fuse

The main fuse in the tractor wire harness protects the tractor’s entire electrical system. A blown main fuse will prevent battery current from passing though the harness.

To replace the main fuse:

Raise the tractor hood and remove the right side panel.

Locate the main fuse under the dash panel, along the tractor’s right frame rail. See Figure 43.

Pull the fuse from the fuse holder and replace with the same capacity fuse (30 Amp). NEVER use a higher amperage fuse.

Install the side panel and lower the tractor hood.

Hazard Light Flasher Relay

The flasher relay controls the on/off flashing of the hazard lights. If the hazard lights do not function properly, the flasher relay is probably faulty.

Replace the relay as follows:

Remove the dash panel insert by removing the two screws. Refer to Figure 41.

Pull the wire harness from the dash opening. Cut and remove the electrical tape holding the flasher relay to the harness. See Figure 44

After first noting the position of the two harness leads, disconnect the leads and replace the faulty relay with a new relay.

Secure the relay to the wire harness with electrical tape.

Position the wire harness in the dash panel and reinstall the dash panel insert.

CHECKING TRANSMISSION/HYDRAULIC SYSTEM OIL LEVEL

Check the hydro transmission/hydraulic system oil level after every 50 hours of operation. Check the oil level only while the engine is stopped and the tractor is standing on a level surface.

The oil fill plug/dipstick is located at the rear of the tractor, above the rear PTO shield. See Figure 45.

Clean the area around the oil fill plug/dipstick to prevent debris from entering the transmission housing. See Figure 45.

Turn the oil fill plug/dipstick counterclockwise to unscrew from the transmission housing.

Withdraw the dipstick and wipe it clean, then reinsert and screw in all the way. Unscrew and withdraw again to read the oil level. Always keep the oil level between the add and full marks on the dipstick (See Figure 45).
