BREAK-IN PERIOD
Operation of Tractor within the first fifty hours can be a
major factor in determining the performance and life of the
engine and Tractor:
・ The engine may be operated at full rpm but excessive
load should be avoided. If engine begins to lug ,
operate in a lower gear to maintain higher engine
speed.
・
Check coolant level and check engine, transmission
and other oil levels frequently during break-in period.
Watch for evidence of leakage of above fluids.
Replenish levels as required and repair any leaks that
may have formed.
・ Tighten any nuts, bolts, or screws that may have loos-
ened and tighten as necessary. This is especially true
of wheel retaining bolts.
All fasteners on this Tractor
are metric.
・ Be observant of clutch pedal free-play adjustment and
brake adjustment and readjust as required. Lining
materials used on clutch and brake discs bed in in
the first few hours of operation and may necessitate
the need for early and frequent re adjustment.
・
Keep area around fuel tank filler clean and make sure
diesel fuel is correct grade and free of contamination.
・
