OPERATION
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 loosened 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 the first few hours of operation and may
necessitate the need for early and frequent
readjustment.
・ Keep area around fuel tank filler clean and make
sure diesel fuel is correct grade and free of
contamination.
・
Initial engine oil and oil filter change is after first fifty
hours of operation. Subsequent change interval is
every one hundred hours for engine oil and filter.
CAUTION: Proper maintenance practices
cannot be over-emphasized. They are
required for safe operation. Consult
Lubrication and Maintenancesection for full
