SECTION 4 - OPERATION
BEFORE OPERATING THE TRACTOR
Before operating the tractor, read this instruction manual care-
fully and learn it correctly. The manual has been prepared for
achieving tractor's maximum performance and safety for your
work with this tractor employed.
1.
Check the fuel level in fuel tank and replenish as necessary.
2. Check the levels of engine oil, transmission oil, and front
drive differential.
3. Check the lubrication at every specified point on the
chassis.
4. Check each bolt and nut for tightness.
5. Check the coolant level in radiator.
6. Check the fan belt tension for water pump, alternator-gene-
rator and cooling fan.
7. Check the air pressure in tires.
8. Check every indicator lamp on instrument panel for
operation.
STARTING THE ENGINE
1. Always get on the tractor from the left side, since the right
side is the emergency exit. When you get off, do not lean on
the hand lever, mirror, mirror lever, pedals, etc., if you need to
lean on something, you can either use the handle on the left
fender or steering wheel.
2. Keep the parking brake applied.
3. Place the main shift lever, High-Low shift lever and PTO
shift lever in NEUTRAL.
4. Set the throttle lever midway between its idling and high
speed positions.
5. Turn the ignition key to "ON" position, And then see that oil
pressure warnings as well as battery charge warning lamps
go on.
6. As soon as the ignition key is on, the glow signal is on in the
instrument cluster indicating heating and when the glow sig-
nal is off turn the ignition key to 'start' position to start the en-
gine.
7. Immediately after starting, release the ignition key. The key
will return to "ON" position automatically.
8. Check the oil pressure and battery charge warning lamps to
see they went off. If not, stop the engine immediately and
inspect.
9. Perform warm up run at about 1500 rpm for about 5
minutes.
CAUTION
1. Use of the starter should be limited for about 10 seconds per
trial. If it is not successful, wait for about 10 seconds before
another trial. Using the starter intermittently without waiting
for certain period of-time, can cause the battery to run down.
2. Do not turn the starter while engine is running. It can lead
to the starter failure.
3. Be sure to perform the warm-up run regardless of the cli-
mate. Engine Travelling before engine gets warm, shortens
the engine life.
STARTING IN COLD WEATHER
1. The fuel injection pump of this engine adopts the mecha-
nism to ensure easier engine start by sufficient injection of
fuel when the throttle lever is fully pushed.
2. To start the engine especially in cold weather fully push the
throttle lever, heat the glow plug enough and crank the
engine.
CAUTION
After the engine has started confirm that the engine is run-
ning smoothly listening carefully to ascertain if nothing
abnormal sounds, and inspect for oil and water leakage.
NOTE
In case fuel runs out, be sure to bleed the fuel system
after refilling the fuel tank, otherwise the engine may not
be started (or even stops soon after started).
WARNING
Do not use starting aids such as Gasoline or Ether in the
air intake. Explosion may result.
AFTER THE ENGINE IS STARTED
1. Check the oil pressure and battery charge warning lamps to
see they went off. If the lamp "does not go off, immediately
pull the throttle lever all the way backward and turn the
starter key counter clockwise to shut down the engine, and
locate the cause to correct.
CAUTION
1. Particularly, by starting the engine while oil pressure is too
low, serious trouble could occur because of insufficient lubri-
cation.
2. Rotate steering wheel to see that front wheels turn to
desired direction.
DRIVING THE TRACTOR
1. With the engine running, hold the tractor with the brakes if
necessary.
2. By pulling hydraulic control lever backward, raise the imple-
ment.
WARNING
Raise or lower the implement with sufficient caution against any
obstacle around.
3. Bring the engine speed to about 1500 rpm (warm-up run).
4. Depress clutch pedal all the way.
5. Move each shift lever to desired position.
6. While travelling, interlock left and right brake pedals with
locking plate so that they are applied simultaneously.
NOTE:
When you are working with the tractor or travelling on road, be
careful that the engine speed is between the max. torque range
(1500~1700 rpm), this range also ensures the most efficient
and economic operation.
