Be sure all fittings are free from dirt
and paint so the lubricant is certain to
enter the bearing.
Using a pressure lubricating gun,
always force the lubricant through the
full length of each bearing until it
emerges at the end, carrying with it
the worn lubricant and any dirt that
may have entered the bearing.
Miscellaneous working parts not
provided with lubrication fittings should
be oiled regularly with a good grade of
lubricating oil.
Always lubricate the tractor thoroughly
before taking it to a remote location for
a prolonged period of time.
Lubricant is cheap. Use plenty of it.
Worn parts can be expensive to
replace.
Keep your supply of lubricating oil and
grease stored in clean containers, and
covered to protect from dust and dirt.
Keep the lubricating gun nozzle clean
and wipe dirt from the grease fittings
before lubricating.
Electrical Box
The electrical box contains the relay,
fuses and the voltage indicator
module. See Figure 22 for the
electrical box layout. The electrical box
is located under the upper bulkhead in
front of the dash panel. To access the
electrical box:
• Raise the hood of the tractor
• Locate the locking tabs on the left
and right side of the upper
bulkhead.
• Pull up on the tabs and lift the upper
bulkhead from the tractor.
• Lift the locking tab and remove the
cover from the electrical box.

Fuse
Fuses are installed to protect the
tractor’s electrical system from
damage caused by excessive
amperage.
Always use the same capacity fuse for
replacement. Refer to the
Specifications Chart. If the electrical
system does not function, check the
fuses.
To replace a fuse, note the position of
the fuse and pull the old fuse from the
electical box.
Compare the suspect fuse with Figure
23 to determine if is good or bad.

Install the new fuse in the position
from which the old fuse was removed.
