Description of tractor controls

The following pages in this section detail the location and function of various instruments, switches and
controls on your tractor. Even if you operate other tractors, you should read through this section of the
manual and ensure that you are thoroughly familiar with the location and function of all the features of your
new tractor.
Do not start the engine or attempt to drive or operate the tractor until you are fully accustomed to all the
controls. It is too late to learn once the tractor is moving.
Particular attention should be paid to the recommendations for running-in to ensure that your tractor will give
long life and dependable service for which it was intended.
If in doubt about any aspect of the operation of the tractor consult your ZETOR tractor dealer / distributor.

Battery disconnector

The battery disconnector is located on the front axle bracket under the right front corner of the hood (A).
Turn the battery disconnector handle in the direction of the arrow (B) to disconnect the battery from the
tractor's electrical installation. To connect the battery to the tractor's electrical installation, turn the battery
disconnector handle counterclockwise. Battery connection is indicated by a visible green field (1).
(C) The position of the battery disconnector handle when the battery is connected.
(D) The position of the battery disconnector handle when the battery is disconnected.
When the tractor is parked, disconnect the battery using the battery disconnector (1). If the
tractor is parked for a long period of time, it is necessary to recharge the battery at least once
a month due to self-discharge.
When the engine is switched off, the engine control unit remains active for about 2 minute
because of storage of operation data. During this time the supply of current from the accumulator
must not be interrupted. Do not disconnect the accumulator before this time expires.
After connecting the battery using the battery disconnecting switch, wait at least 30 seconds
before turning on the ignition key.
