Before starting the tractor, and having made yourself familiar with
its controls, etc., it is important to carry out the following procedure.
Examination
Examine the tractor to ascertain if any damage has occurred in transit,
and check the equipment. Report any damage or shortages to your
David Brown dealer immediately.
Lubrication
Refer to the lubrication chart on page
18
(and to page
25),
locate all
the greasing points, make sure that all nipples are free from dirt and
lubricate with the grease gun.
Check the oil levels in the engine, transmission, air cleaner, reductions,
power take-off and pulley (if fitted) ; check all drain plugs for tightness.
Cooling Sustem
Close the cylinder block drain tap (see Fig.
10)
and the tap at the
bottom of the left-hand side of the radiator, and fill the cooling system
with clean, soft water.
Fuel Susteni
Turn the fuel tap (which is referred to on page 8 and in Fig. 2) to
the petrol position and fill the rear tank with petrol and the front one
with vaporizing oil.
Brakes, Throttle Control, Clutch
Inspect the linkages of these three controls for correct action.
Tyres
Examine the tyres, and
if
necessary, inflate to the correct pressures
(see page
21).
