6. FUEL SYSTEM
6.1. While the 1000 and 1500 Series tractors are
built on the same frame, the fuel systems differ
substantially in layout.
6.2. The 1000 Series tractors have the fuel tank
beneath the hood, with the battery located under
the seat.
See Figure 6.2.
6.3. This positioning is necessary to provide easy
service access to the CVT drive system used on
the 1000 series tractors. The rear mounted bat
-
tery, and the tray that supports it are easily
removable.
6.4. The battery of the 1500 Series tractor is located
under the hood, with the fuel tank mounted
under the rear fenders.
