ADVICE ON STARTING THE ENGINE WITH A
FLAT BATTERY OR NO BATTERY
To prevent damage to the alternator and its
incorporated voltage regulator follow the procedure
below:
When the tractor battery is partially discharged,
and an auxiliary battery has to be used to start the
engine, connect the auxiliary battery to the tractor
battery ensuring that the terminal symbols match
(positive to positive and negative to negative). Connect
the positive lead first followed by the negative lead.
Start the engine using the key start switch. When the
engine starts, allow it to run at idle speed, turn on all
electrical equipment (lights, etc.). This will help
protect the alternator from possible damage due to
extreme load changes. Now disconnect the auxiliary
battery leads. Remove the negative lead first,
followed by the positive lead.
If you have to start the engine with a totally flat
battery or where the tractor does not have a
battery remember that:
--
it is not possible to start the tractor by towing as
the electro--magnetically operated injection pump
cut--off will prevent the engine from starting;
--
it is however necessary to connect a 12 V
auxiliary battery capable of starting the tractor
Under normal conditions, the engine must never be
run unless plug D+, terminal B+ and the condenser
are disconnected from the alternator.
When recharging the tractor battery, it must be
removed from the tractor to avoid possible damage
to the alternator and related circuits. Observe the
rule relating to lead connection (positive to positive
and negative to negative).
