In order to service your tractor you
must park it on a at level surface, set
the parking brake, place the gear shift
lever in neutral and stop the engine.
1. Do not smoke while working around
the battery or when refueling your
tractor. Keep all sparks and ames
away from the battery and fuel tank.
The battery presents an explosive
hazard because it gives off hydro-
gen and oxygen gas, especially
when recharging.

2. Allow the tractor time to cool off
before servicing any part that may
have become hot while the tractor

3. You must always stop the engine be-
fore refueling the tractor. Avoid over-
lling the tractor or spilling the fuel.
4. Before jump starting a dead bat-
tery, read and follow all of the in-
structions.

aid kit and re extinguisher handy
at all times.

6. Do not remove the radiator cap
while the coolant is hot. When
cool, slowly rotate the cap to the
rst stop and allow sufcient time
for excess pressure to escape.
After all the pressure is released
remove the cap completely. If your
tractor is equipped with a coolant
recovery tank, add coolant there
rather than to the radiator.
