Restarting Warm Engine
When restarting an engine that is still warm from previ-
ous use, the same procedure is used as with “Normal
Starting” except step no. 6 may be omitted. Use of glow
plugs is not necessary when starting a warm engine.
Cold Weather Starting
Procedure for starting an engine in colder ambient
temperatures is identical to “Normal Starting” proce-
dure except for the following:
• Longer use of glow plugs may be required. Instead
of the normal 5-10 seconds, main switch may need
to be selected to “glow” for 10-20 seconds to ad-
equately warm engine combustion chambers.
• At temperatures below 39F° (4°C) use of No. 1 (No.
1-D) diesel fuel is recommended due to possible
“fuel gelling” characteristics of No. 2 (No. 2-D) fuel
at cold ambient temperature.
• Transmission oil will require additional warm-up
time due to colder (thicker) oil. Refer to “Warm-Up
Period” at right.
• Test all controls (steering, braking, etc.) prior to
operating unit.
NOTE: Installation
of accessory engine block heater
is recommended in cold weather conditions.
Consult your Dealer.
IMPORTANT: Under no circumstances should either
or other starting fluid be used to start
engines equipped with glow plugs. Se-
vere engine damage will result should
starting fluid contact a hot glow plug.
If, for some reason, a booster battery
is required to start Tractor, ensure
booster battery is connected in paral-
lel. When using booster battery and
booster cables always connect posi-
tive (+) terminals together first. Then
install booster cable on booster bat-
tery negative (-) terminal and ground
final booster cable end on Tractor
away from Tractor battery.
Warm Up Period
After starting a cold engine, let engine idle at slow
speed to make sure all engine components are
lubricated.
In colder ambient temperatures, extended warm-up
will be required to also warm hydraulic fluid and lubri-
cate driveline components.
Suggested warm-up period:

age and/or sluggish steering/braking
CAUTION: Make sure parking brake is
securely applied and all controls are in
neutral while warming unit. Do not leave
unit unattended.
