Electric System Check

Alternator inspect

Yanmar recommends a scheduled inspection of the alternator. Inspect the alternator for loose connections
and proper battery charging. Inspect the ammeter (If equipped) during engine operation in order to ensure
proper battery performance and/or proper performance of the electrical system. Make repairs, as required.
Check the alternator and the battery charger for proper operation. If the batteries are properly charged, the
ammeter reading should be very near Zero. All batteries should be kept warm because temperature affects
the cranking power. If the battery is too colt, the battery will not crank the engine. When the engine is not run
for long periods of time or if the engine is run for short periods. The batteries may not fully charge. A battery
with a low charge will freeze more easily than a battery with a full charge.

Battery Check and Charging

Low temperatures affect battery performance, so pay special attention to them in winter.
Remove the battery and store it in a cool, dry place before prolonged shutdown.
If the battery remains in the tractor, disconnect the negative terminal.
If the batteries are not used for a long period of time, they will self-discharge.
If the battery contacts are oxidized, clean them with sandpaper or a steel brush.
1 - Control indicator
A battery charge indicator is available for the battery.
GREEN: Good condition
BLACK: Charging Required
WHITE: Replace the battery

Battery Charging

1. Turn the ignition switch to the 'OFF' position and
remove the battery from the tractor.
2. Recharge the battery in a well-ventilated area.
3. Avoid charging the battery with a large charging current.
4. Properly connect the charger cables to the negative and
positive terminals of the battery.
5. When using the charger, its charging current must be
below 10 A.
Charge the battery only in a well-ventilated area.
The battery produces highly flammable hydrogen gases that can explode. Keep flammable objects
and sparks away from the battery.
The electrolyte contains acid which can cause severe burns.
If the electrolyte battery gets in your eyes or on your skin, rinse them thoroughly with water.
If swallowed, drink plenty of water and seek medical advice immediately.
