DANGER: Operation of the engine
Exhaust gases can cause asphyxia.
Only operate the engine with the tractor in a ventilated area, i.e., never in a closed

Before putting the engine into operation, refer to the servicing table and check the items listed in servicing

Proceed as follows:
(1)
Examine all systems in search of possible
leaks.
(2)
Check the level of brake fluid.
(3)
Check the water level in the engine cooling
system.

(7)
Check the tightness of wheel lug nuts, the
correct attachment of hose clamps, fittings,
electrical connections and operation of the
instrument panel.
(8)
Check that all tractor systems are suitable for
the work to be performed. For example:
Power take-off shaft (if it is type 1000/540),
height and length of the draw bar, remote
control, etc.
(9)
In addition to the adjustments on the tractor,
you should know how to make the
adjustments of the implement to be used.
For these adjustments, you should refer to

Always fill the tractor fuel tank(s) after each day of work. Keeping the tank full prevents air from condensing
inside of it overnight and transforming into water, which mixed with the fuel is highly damaging to the
injection system.
NOTE:
If the tractor has remained stationary for a long period, bleeding the fuel system is recommended.
Engage the manual pump to drain water and impurities from the fuel system.
