WARMING UP
After starting your tractor’s engine al-
low ve minute warm up before ap-
plying any load to the tractor. This will
allow time for oil to reach every part
of the engine. If a load is applied to
the tractor before it has time to warm
up, serious damage, such as prema-
ture wear, breakage, or seizure can
occur.
Hydraulic oil serves as transmis-
sion uid. In cold weather, the oil
may be cold with increased viscos-
ity. This can cause delayed oil cir-
culation or abnormally low hydrau-
lic pressure for some time after en-
gine start-up. This in turn can result
in trouble in the hydraulic system. To
prevent the above, observe the fol-
lowing instructions:
Warm up the engine at about 50 %
of rated rpm according to the table

are in the neutral position.

Do not operate the tractor un-
der full load condition until it
is sufciently warmed up.
