It is recommended always to warm
up the engine before driving in order
to maintain the durability of the en-
gine. Before warming up the engine,
make sure that each part in the en-
gine is properly lubricated and each
hydraulic part is in a perfect condition
in order to prevent malfunction in the
engine as well as the hydraulic sys-
tem.
WARMING UP
HOW TO WARM UP ENGINE
1. Start the engine and run it at a low
speed and without a load for ap-
prox. 3 to 4 minutes.
2. In cold weather, increase the warm
up time to 10 minutes.
3. If it is very cold, warm up the en
-
gine for approx. 15 minutes.
4. The engine throttle can be open to
50 % in order to shorten the warm-
ing up time.
5.The engine is sufciently warmed
up when the temperature gauge on
the instrument panel indicates 1/4
of the normal temperature range,
regardless of the warming-up time.
6. Do not increase the work load rap-
idly after starting work.
7. Run the engine without load for
approx. 2 to 3 minutes before stop-
ping the engine after work.
Warming up the engine ex-
cessively increases fuel con-
sumption and affects the dura-
bility of the tractor negatively.
Never warm up the engine and
leave the tractor for an extend-
ed period of time. It can cause
re and an accident.
Never leave the tractor unat-
tended while warming up.
Be sure to apply the parking
brake while warming up the
engine.
If the warm-up is skipped or
missed, the tractor can take
off abruptly to cause a fatal
accident.
