block. Flush the system, close the drain valves,
and fill with a 50/50 solution of permanent
antifreeze and clear water.

sure that it is fully charged and that the electrolyte
is at the proper level. Store the battery in a cool,
dry place above freezing temperature, and
charge it periodically during storage.

Tractors which have been placed in storage should
be completely serviced in the following manner
before using:
1. Inflate the tires to the recommended pressures
and remove the blocking.
2. Check the oil level in the engine crankcase,
power steering reservoir, the common sump (for
the hydraulic lift, transmission, and rear axle),
and the optional front-wheel drive axle.
3. Install a fully charged battery and remove the
exhaust cover if other than a rain cap.
4. Check the cooling system for the proper level
(50/50 solution of antifreeze and clear water).
5. Depress the clutch pedal until there is clearance
between the pedal and the pedal spacer.
Remove the pedal spacer from between the
clutch pedal and the step plate.
6. Start the engine and allow it to idle a few minutes.
Ensure the engine is receiving lubrication and
that each control is functioning correctly.
7. Drive the tractor without a load and check to
make sure it is operating satisfactorily.
