Starting Switches
This tractor is equipped with a neutral-start system con-
sisting of neutral switches and a relay. To start tractor,
ALL the following is required:
(Mechanical Transmission)
Clutch pedal depressed.
Range gear shift lever in neutral position.
Rear PTO and Mid PTO (if equipped) control lever
in neutral position.
Operator seated on the seat.
(Hydrostatic Transmission)

WARNING: DO NOT bypass or modify the

Wiring / Fuse Arrangement
CAUTION: Keep all wiring connections clean
and tight. Make sure wiring is correctly se-
cured to prevent damage.
CAUTION: DO NOT alter wiring by adding
“home-made” extensions or replacements.
Doing so can eliminate fuse protection and /
or eliminate safety features of the system.
CAUTION: The tractor is equipped with neg-
ative (-) ground system. Tractor metal parts
provide many electrical connections. For
this reason, all positive (+) circuits must be
insulated to prevent “grounding” or short
circuits and prevent possible fire.
CAUTION: DO NOT replace any fuse with a
fuse of higher amperage rating. DO NOT use
wire (or foil) to by-pass fuse protection. Fire
can result. If fuses blow repeatedly, examine
the electrical system for “earthed” or “short-
ed” circuits.
