Operating Instructions
Before Starting The Tractor
1. Clean the tractor.
2. Make all prestart checks according to preventive
maintenance schedule.
3. Check coolant level in surge tank & oil level in engine,
transmission and front axle.
4. Check fuel level in fuel tank.
5. Ensure all the tires are properly inflated as per the load
conditions.
6. For operator’s maximum comfort, adjust seat
suspension as per the operator’s weight. Also adjust
seat position forward or rearward as per operators
convenience to operate all controls and switches.
7. If, necessary, ballast the tractor.
8. Adjust wheel tread, if necessary.
9. Adjust stabilizer and three point linkage.
Do not use starting fluid. Tractor is equipped with intake
manifold heater.
Starting the Tractor
1. Move the controls as under :
a. Range shift lever in neutral.
b. PC and DC levers in lowermost position.
c. PTO switch should be in OFF.
d. Auxiliary valve lever in neutral position (5035).
2. Turn the starter key in clockwise to engage the starter
and hold in this position till the engine fires. When
released, the key springs back to the “ON” position.
3. Idle the Engine for 1 to 2 minutes before driving it. If
required, warm-up the engine at suitable speed. For
faster warm-up, raise the engine rpm to approx. 2000.
The starter safety switches is provided on Forward / Reverse
pedal linkage. The tractor can be started when the
Forward / Reverse pedals are in neutral position (its original
position).
Never push or tow the tractor to start the engine. Doing
so may overstress the drive train.
Do not crank the starter continuously for more than
30 seconds to avoid starter motor failure.
Stopping the Engine
a. Idle the Engine for 1 to 2 minutes.
b. Turn the Key to “OFF” position.
Note : It is normal for the engine to be louder and have
bluish-white exhaust smoke during engine warm-up. The
amount of smoke depends on the temperature of air
entering the engine.
In cold weather, idle the engine and warm-up for 5 minutes
at approx. 2000 rpm before loading.
Cold Starting Aid
A heater element (A) is provided in engine’s
intake manifold. When the Key is turned to
“ON” position, the element is activated. Heater
indicator in the instrument cluster indicates the
activation. The element continues to heat the air
in the intake manifold for approx. 35 seconds.
1. Turn the Key to “ON” position and hold it till
the heater indicator is put-off.
2. Crank the engine when the heater indicator
is put-off after 35 seconds.
Cold Starting Aid
General driving care to be taken
Driving a tractor with hydrostatic transmission is
a bit different than with a mechanical
transmission.
Here HST pedal acts as a gear shifter. The
harder you depress the pedal, the higher gear
you are in.
With a hydrostatic transmission (HST) as your
load increases (i.e. pulling a heavy load,
operating with a loader in a dirt pile, pulling a
trailer up a hill or operating in soft soil
conditions) you need to decrease the force on
the pedal to over come the load.
If you are driving the tractor up a hill or a
gradient, it is advised to use the low or medium
speed range. Using high range may overload
the engine. At certain extreme load conditions
the engine may stop.
While hauling large implements or filled loader
bucket, high range may cause the engine to
overload. For safety use low or medium speed
range to match load.
When operating in heavy load conditions, it
makes a huge difference to operate in low
range which allows the HST to maintain lower
pressures and work more efficiently.
