3. Do not use the starter motor for more than 10 seconds without
stopping. Wait one minute between starts so the starter motor can
cool.
4. If the engine stops when operating with a load, immediately start the
engine again to prevent overheating caused by stopping the flow of
oil for cooling and lubrication.
5. If the charge indicator comes on during operation, determine and
correct the cause to avoid complete discharge of the battery and
possible damage to other components of the electrical system. See
your Dealer.
6. If the coolant temperature indicator comes on, remove the load and
allow the engine to run at 1500 rpm until the indicator goes out. If the
indicator does not go out within one minute, stop the engine and
determine the cause.
IMPORTANT:
Hydrostatic transmission can jump into gear without
warning, if the fluid leaks out of the control system. This can occur due to
vibration if the tractor is transported on a truck or rail car. It can also
happen if the transmission is drained or if the tractor sits still for very long
perIods. If any of these have happened, start the tractor as follows:
1. Put the range shift control lever into the N (Engine start) slot and
release the speed lock lever to permit the speed ratio control pedal to
return to N (Neutral) position.
2. Lock the brake pedals together, press down on the brake pedals.
3. Pull the engine speed control lever and start the engine. Set the
engine speed to about 1000 RPM.
4. Slowly move the range shift lever to H range for high speed en-
gagement.
If gear clash is obvious the engine should be shut off immediately and
the tractor unloaded by other means. Tow the tractor with the range shift
lever in N (Neutral) to an area where the transmission can be checked by
your Dealer. Refer to Towing the Tractor in this manual.
If there is no obvious gear clash, drive the tractor in the normal manner.
