Thermostat Cold Start Aid; Key Start Switch (With Thermostart) - New Holland T6010 Operator's Manual

THERMOSTART COLD START AID
(where fitted)
WARNING
Your tractor is equipped with an electronic cold
weather starting aid. Do not use ether with the cold
start aid installed. It will explode in the intake
manifold. If any difficulty is experienced when trying
to start your tractor in cold temperatures, consult
your authorised dealer.
The Thermostart, which is effective in ambient
temperatures down to --18° C (0° F), consists of a
heating element installed in the intake manifold.
When operated by the key--start switch, the
Thermostart will ignite fuel in the inlet manifold,
heating the indrawn air prior to entering the
combustion chamber.
A warning light on the instrument panel will illuminate
to confirm operation.
If temperatures below --18° C (0° F) are
encountered, a block coolant heater is available as
an accessory. The block coolant heater is effective
in ambient temperatures down to --29° C (--20° F)
when used in conjunction with the Thermostart.

Key Start Switch (with Thermostart)

A five-position key-start switch is installed. The
key-start switch positions are as follows:
Position 1 Thermostart activated
Position 2 Off
Position 3 Accessories on
Position 4 Warning lights and instruments on

IMPORTANT: Never push or tow the tractor to start
the engine. Use an auxiliary battery and jump leads.
NOTE: Neutral start switches prevent operation of
the starting motor unless the shuttle lever is in the
neutral (N) position.
