This document is an operator's manual for New Holland TD4.80F, TD4.90F, and TD4.100F series tractors, providing comprehensive information for safe and efficient operation, maintenance, and troubleshooting. It is structured to guide the operator through various aspects of the tractor, from general information and safety protocols to detailed operating procedures, transport, working operations, maintenance schedules, and troubleshooting.
The manual begins with essential general information, including a note to the owner emphasizing the importance of reading the manual for proper care and operation. It highlights that the tractor is a dependable machine, and its performance and long service life depend on correct usage and maintenance. Operators are encouraged to familiarize themselves with the manual and keep it accessible for reference. The document also stresses the importance of contacting a New Holland dealer for any questions, service parts, or to obtain the model and product identification numbers. A critical warning symbol is introduced, alerting users to potential personal injury hazards and the necessity of obeying all safety messages. It specifically warns against operating the machine with protective shielding open or removed, as failure to comply could result in death or serious injury. The manual asserts that the machine is designed and built to high-quality standards and complies with current safety regulations, but emphasizes that accidents can never be completely excluded, thus requiring strict adherence to safety rules. It advises against using the machine for purposes other than those described and recommends consulting a New Holland dealer for special attachments or modifications to ensure compliance with technical specifications and safety requirements. Any unauthorized modifications are stated to invalidate the machine's initial conformity with safety requirements. Regular inspections are recommended, with frequency varying based on usage type. The manual also includes an "Engine tampering statement," strictly prohibiting any modifications to the fuel system and engine that would alter government emissions standards, warning of severe penalties for non-compliance.
The "Advice" section further details the tractor's compliance with European Regulations on electro-magnetic emissions. It cautions that add-on equipment not meeting required standards may cause interference, leading to malfunction or unsafe situations. Operators are advised to ensure all non-New Holland equipment fitted to the tractor bears the CE mark, that emission equipment power does not exceed national limits, and that the electro-magnetic field generated by add-on systems does not exceed 24 V/m near electronic components. Non-compliance with these rules will void the New Holland warranty. The manual also includes a declaration of conformity, outlining the health and safety related standards applied to the tractor, such as ROPS protection, noise emission levels, and vibration levels, all certified according to relevant OECD codes and EU regulations.
The "Contents" section provides a detailed roadmap of the manual, starting with "General Information" covering topics like advice, abbreviations, product identification, foreword, international symbols, noise level, and vibration level. This is followed by "Safety Information," which is extensive, covering personal safety, safety aspects in accordance with EU regulations, and numerous safety rules related to various components and operations. It also discusses warning indicators, alarms, instruments, and safety signs, along with basic instructions.
"Controls and Instruments" delves into the operator's seat, including adjustments for pneumatically-adjusted seats and seat restraints. It then covers "Forward controls," detailing the electrical system, fuel tanks, external lighting, mechanical transmission, and power shuttle transmission operations. "Left-hand side controls" and "Right-hand side controls" are also described, focusing on console operations and platform/cab/bodywork overview. The "Display" section provides in-depth information on the instrument cluster, including part identification, control identification, calibration procedures for ground speed and tool width, programming maintenance work, activating/deactivating the buzzer, setting units of measurement, resetting the oil change counter, and viewing error codes, as well as warning symptoms.
"Operating Instructions" covers starting and stopping the engine. "Transport Operations" includes preparing the tractor for road transport and recovery transport, with details on securing brakes and controls.
"Working Operations" is a significant section, detailing the use of the one-speed rear Power Take-Off (PTO), including operating procedures and general specifications. It also covers the rear hitch, main lift system, and three-point hitch control valve. Remote control valves and the rear three-point hitch linkage (localization, top link arm, vertical rod, and stabilizer adjustments) are explained. The Roll Over Protective Structure (ROPS) frame adjustment is also included. Information on front and rear wheels, including general specifications and static descriptions, is provided. Finally, "Ballasts and supports" covers static descriptions of ballasting, liquid ballasting, and weight considerations.
"Maintenance" is a crucial section, starting with general information on grouped safety messages, foreword, basic instructions, fuel tank capacities, definitions, engine cooling system, consumables, and hood instructions. The "Flexible Maintenance" schedule includes checks and adjustments for the clutch, brake pedals, alternator drive system belt, air cleaner, external lighting, hand brake lever, engine cooling system, radiator, and wheels (tyre pressure and wheel disks nut torque). It also outlines actions to take "WHEN THE WARNING LAMP LIGHTS," such as checking brake fluid reservoir and cleaning the air cleaner. Detailed maintenance schedules are provided for "EVERY 10 HOURS OR DAILY" (engine oil level check), "EVERY 50 HOURS" (rear three-point hitch linkage grease), "EVERY 300 HOURS" (oil filter replacement, air cleaner cleaning, alternator belt inspection, steering knuckle and king pin greasing, transmission and hydraulic lift oil check, front axle housing check, and front axle reduction hubs check), "EVERY 600 HOURS" (engine lubrication system replacement and fuel filter replacement), "EVERY 1200 HOURS" (air cleaner cleaning, fuel tank cleaning, and drive shaft sleeve check), "EVERY 1200 HOURS OR EVERY 2 YEARS" (axle housing fluid change, wheel hub fluid change, and transmission and hydraulic lift oil change), and "EVERY 3600 HOURS" (engine cooling system fluid change). "General Maintenance" covers replacing fuses and relays, adjusting headlights, replacing headlight bulbs, and cleaning the platform, cab, bodywork, and decals.
"Storage" provides instructions for storing the frame. "Troubleshooting" offers guidance on addressing alarms related to remote control valves, engine, electrical system, rear three-point hitch, hydraulic service brakes, and the instrument cluster (ADIC), including basic instructions, part identification, and general specifications.
Finally, "Accessories" lists beacon localization, drawbars and towing hitches (operating and general specifications), and trailer brake hydraulic control (static description, dual line, and universal single line compatibility). "Forms and Declarations" includes service records for the owner and dealer.
