TO START ENGINE WITH A WEAK BAT-
TERY
_WARNING: Lead-acid batteries generate
explosive gases. Keep sparks, flame and
smoking materialsawayfrom batteries. Always
wear eye protection when around batteries.
If your battery is too weak to start the engine,
it should be recharged. (See "BATTERY" in
the MAINTENANCE section of this manual).
If "jumper cables" are used for emergency
starting, follow this procedure:
IMPORTANT: Your tractor is equipped with
a 12 volt system. The other vehicle must also
be a 12 volt system. Do not use your tractor
battery to start other vehicles.
TO ATTACH JUMPER CABLES -
1. Connect one end of the RED cable to the
POSITIVE (4-) terminal of each battery(A-

2. Connect one end of the BLACK cable

charged battery.
3. Connect the other end of the BLACK
cable (D) to good chassis ground, away
from fuel tank and battery.
TO REMOVE CABLES, REVERSE ORDER -
1. BLACK cable first from chassis and then
from the fully charged battery.
