1.5.5 Starting fluid

NOTE:
It is very important that you read and follow all
instructions contained on the ether can before
installing the ether-based cold start aid on the
tractor.
Do not use starting aid fluids in aerosol containers
on tractors equipped with a pre-heating system
connected to the electrical system. The ether
combined with the pre-heating system may cause
explosions, damaging the engine, causing injuries
to the handler, or both.
Handle start-up fluid properly. Start-up fluid should
be used only when the ether-based starting aid is
used as original factory equipment or when

installed as an accessory by the dealer.
In the case of tractors equipped with glow plugs or a pre-heating system, this equipment must be removed
before the installation of an ether-based start-up device.
If aerosol cans containing start-up fluid or the ether-based starting aid device are to be used, the pre-
heating system must be disconnected. Remove the cable from the pre-heating system unit, which will be
found in the intake manifold. Use insulating tape on the end of the cable to prevent short-circuit.
