ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Battery
FIG. 6-32:
Battery (1) is located under the engine hood
in front of the radiator. If the battery requires only minor
servicing or charging, it is recommended that the front
grille be removed to reach the battery. When the bat-
tery is removed, electrolyte inspection or cable cleaning
is necessary, the front grille must be removed from the
tractor. Keep top of the battery clean and ensure cable
connections are clean and tight. Debris on the battery
can cause discharge of the battery and be a possible
source of fire.
CAUTION: Batteries produce explosive hy-
drogen when they have charged. Keep all
sparks and open flames away from the bat-
tery. When necessary to disconnect battery
cables, always disconnect the earthed (-)
cable first to prevent short circuits. Batter-
ies contain sulfuric acid electrolyte fluid.
Wear eye and face protection. If electrolyte
comes in contact with skin or clothes, wash
immediately. Contact a physician imme-
diately if electrolyte is ingested or gets in
eyes.
FIG. 6-33:
Tractors are shipped with the battery in-
stalled. If battery replacement should become neces-
sary, disconnect the negative (-) cable (1) first and then
remove the positive (+) cable (2). Loosen and remove
the battery securing clamp and carefully remove the bat-
tery from the tractor.
When installing the battery, the cable (2) connected to
the starter solenoid should be connected to the positive
(+) battery terminal first then the cable (1) earthed to the
tractor frame can be connected to the negative (-) bat-
tery terminal.
NOTE: Make sure the replacement battery is of identi-
cal size and equal capacity.
IMPORTANT: Do not reverse battery cable connec-
tions as severe electrical system dam-
age will result.
