The vehicle electrical system is protected from potential

A blown fuse indicates that there is an overload or short
somewhere in the electrical system.
If any of the fuses should blow, replace with a new one
of the same capacity.
WARNING
To avoid serious injury or death:
• Allow the engine to cool down sufficiently until
the ECU cooling fan stops.
IMPORTANT :
• Before replacing a blown fuse, determine why
the fuse blew and make any necessary repairs.
Failure to follow this procedure may result in
serious damage to the vehicle electrical system.
Consult your local KUBOTA Dealer for specific
information dealing with electrical problems.
