• Use only the same voltage for jump starting.
• Use of
a higher voltage source on the electrical
system of tractor could result in severe damage
to the electrical system of tractor.
Use only matching voltage source when jump
starting in a low battery condition or a dead
battery condition.
• Since the metal-battery-holder can crack, do not
tighten it too much.
Connect cables in numerical order.
Disconnect in reverse order after use.
(1) Dead battery
(2) Jumper cables
(3)
Engine block or frame
(4) Helper battery
1. Bring the helper vehicle with a battery of the same
voltage
as the disabled tractor within easy cable

IMPORTANT :
• The helper vehicle must not touch the
disabled tractor.
2. Engage the parking brakes of both vehicles and put
the shift levers in the neutral position. Shut both
engines off.

5. Make sure that the vent caps are securely in place
if equipped.
6. Attach the red clamp to the positive (red, (+) or
pos.) terminal of the dead battery, and clamp the
other end of the same cable to the positive (red, (+)
or pos.) terminal of the helper battery.
7. Clamp the other cable to the negative (black, (-) or
neg.) terminal of the helper battery.
8. Clamp the other end of the cable, which is clamped
to the negative terminal of the helper battery, to the
engine block or frame of the disabled tractor as far
from the dead battery as possible.
9. Start the helper vehicle and let its engine run for a
few moments. Start the disabled tractor.
