• Remove the dipstick and SLOWLY
pour oil into the oil fill tube. Fill the
transmission case until the oil level
reaches the “FULL” mark on the
dipstick.
• Reinstall the dipstick securely into
the oil fill tube.
• Start the engine and allow it to run
for a few minutes. Shut the engine
off, then check for leaks and
recheck the oil level in the
transmission case.
Important Information: The service
life and reliability of any machine
depends upon the care it is given.
Proper lubrication is a very important
part of that care. The maintenance
schedule reflects the minimal require-
ments to maintain the equipment.
More frequent inspections and mainte-
nance is preferable.
Using the lubrication illustration as a
guide, make certain that all lubrication
fittings are installed and functioning.
Be sure all fittings are free from dirt
and paint so the lubricant is certain to
enter the bearing.
Using a pressure lubricating gun,
always force the lubricant through the
full length of each bearing until it
emerges at the end, carrying with it
the worn lubricant and any dirt that
may have entered the bearing.
Miscellaneous working parts not
provided with lubrication fittings should
be oiled regularly with a good grade of
lubricating oil.
Always lubricate the tractor thoroughly
before taking it to a remote location for
a prolonged period of time.
Lubricant is cheap. Use plenty of it.
Worn parts can be expensive to
replace.
Keep your supply of lubricating oil and
grease stored in clean containers, and
covered to protect from dust and dirt.
Keep the lubricating gun nozzle clean
and wipe dirt from the grease fittings
before lubricating.
Electrical Box
The electrical box contains the relay
and fuses. See Figure 25 for the
electrical box layout. The electrical box
is located under the upper bulkhead in
front of the dash panel. To access the
electrical box:
• Raise the hood of the tractor
• Locate the locking tabs on the left
and right side of the upper
bulkhead.
• Pull up on the tabs and lift the upper
bulkhead from the tractor.
• Lift the locking tab and remove the
cover from the electrical box.

Fuse
Fuses are installed to protect the trac-
tor’s electrical system from damage
caused by excessive amperage.
Always use the same capacity fuse for
replacement. Refer to the Specifica-
tions Chart. If the electrical system
does not function, check the fuses.
To replace a fuse, note the position of
the fuse and pull the old fuse from the
electical box.
Compare the suspect fuse with Figure
24 to determine if is good or bad.

Install the new fuse in the position
from which the old fuse was removed.
