Operation
Engine coolant heater (if equipped)
This heater is installed in the engine block and keeps the
engine coolant worm to make starting the engine easier
in cold weather.
North American Tractors
Connect the connector plug (1) on the engine block to an
electrical supply.
NOTE: If required, use a three-wire extension of proper
capacity.
Other tractors
Connect the connector plug (1) beside the right-hand step
to an electrical supply.
NOTE: If required, use a three-wire extension of proper
capacity.
OPERATION 4
Make sure that the PTO clutch control is on the disen-
gaged position.
For tractors with front PTO, disengage the control switch.
Check that the auxiliary control valves levers are in
neutral position.
IMPORTANT: The control of the rear PTO clutch MUST be
in the disengaged position or the starter motor will not
operate.
OPERATION 5
Move the throttle lever to the FULL open position.
OPERATION 6
Mechanical engine
Press the top part of the thermostarter (1) for 10-15
seconds, then turn the ignition key on the start position.
During the starting, the thermostarter switch should be
kept depressed not longer than 30 seconds. When the
engine has started, bring the throttle on 1/3 of the open
position and let the engine run for 2 minutes.
NOTE: If the engine does not start and no alarm is heard,
check that ALL controls are in NEUTRAL. If the engine
operates erratically, press the thermostarter button again
while the engine is running. If the engine does not start
in the first 15 seconds then repeat the procedure, but
push the thermostart button for only 10 seconds. If the
engine still does not start, DO NOT try to start it again for
3 minutes at least.
OPERATION 7
Once the engine has started, check that all indicator lamps
and gauges are giving normal indications and, when the
engine is warm, the coolant temperature indicator is in
the correct area.
IMPORTANT: If the indicator lamps or gauges do not
give the correct indications, STOP THE ENGINE IMMEDI-
ATELY AND CHECK FOR THE CAUSE.
