tractor, follow the instructions below.
1. Shield eyes.
2. Connect one end of the jumper cable to the
tractor battery positive ( ＋) terminal and the
other to the auxiliary battery positive (＋) termi-
nal. Connect one end of the other cable first to
the auxiliary battery negative (－) terminal, and
the other end to the tractor starter ground ter-
minal. Follow the starting procedures indicated
previously above.
Idle the engine and turn on all electrical equipment
(lights, etc.), then disconnect the cables in reverse
order of the connecting procedure above. This will
help protect the alternator from damage due to
extreme load changes.

BREAK-IN PROCEDURES
Your SHIBAURA Tractor will provide long and
dependable service if given proper care during the
50 hour break-in period. During the first 50 hours
of operation :
1. Avoid “lugging” the engine. Operating in too
high a gear under heavy load may cause engine
“lugging”, which is indicated when the engine
will not respond to a throttle increase.
2. Use the lower gear ratios when pulling heavy
loads and avoid continuous operation at con-
stant engine speeds. You will save fuel and
minimize engine wear by selecting the correct
gear ratio for a particular operation. Operating
the tractor in low gear with a light load and high
engine speed will waste fuel.
3. Avoid prolonged operation at either high or low
engine speeds without a load on the engine.
4. Check the instruments frequently and keep the
radiator and oil reservoirs filled to their recom-
mended levels. Daily checks include :
Engine oil level
Radiator coolant
Air cleaner
5. After the first 50 hours of use, be sure to per-
form the maintenance chart ,on Page 30.
WARNING：
：：
：Never attempt to start the
engine while standing beside the trac-
tor always sit in the seat when starting
the engine.
