BREAK-IN PERIOD

Operation of tractor within the first 50h can be a major factor in determining the performance and life of the engine and Tractor:

OPERATION STARTING Pre-Start Inspection

・The engine may be operated at full rpm but excessive load should be avoided. If engine begins to “lug”,operate in a lower gear to maintain higher engine speed.

・ Check coolant level and check engine, transmission and other oil levels frequently during break-in period.

Watch for evidence of leakage of above fluids. Replenish levels as required and repair any leaks that may have formed.

・Tighten any nuts, bolts, or screws that may have loosened and retighten as necessary. This is especially true of wheel retaining bolts. All fasteners on this Tractor are metric.

・Be observant of clutch and brake pedal free-play adjustments and readjust as required. Lining materials used in clutch disc and brake shoes “bed in” the first few hours of operation and may necessitate the need for early and frequent readjustment.

・ Keep area around fuel tank filler clean. Make sure diesel fuel is of correct grade and free of contamination.

・Initial engine oil and oil filter change is after first 50h of operation. Subsequent change interval is every 150h for engine oil and filter.

CAUTION: Proper maintenance practices cannot be over-emphasized. They are required for safe operation. Consultant “Lubrication and Maintenance” section for full details.

Prior to daily start-up of Tractor, a few basic procedures should be followed to ensure Tractor is in operating order to insure longer life and dependability:

・Make sure all safety shields are in place and secured properly.

・Make sure operator is instructed in correct and safe operation of Tractor and related attachments or implements.

・Check coolant, engine oil and transmission oil levels and replenish as necessary.

・Check fan belt tension and adjust as required.

・Make sure radiator, air intake screen, and radiator screen are clear of debris to provide maximum engine cooling.

・Check operation of clutch, brake and throttle controls. All controls must operate freely and be adjusted correctly.

・Conduct a general inspection of tires, tire pressure, and wheel bolt torque. Observe for external signs of leakage and correct before operating Tractor. Check steering for excessive looseness.

・Check for adequate fuel supply. If is recommended fuel tank be filled following each days use to; reduce condensation and provide full tank for next use.

・Check operation of lights and warning flashers. If Tractor is to be transported on public road, ensure slow moving vehicle emblem is in place.

NOTE: Requirements may vary regarding use of warning flashers and slow moving vehicle emblem depending on locality. Check local safety codes.

WARNING: Carefully read and understand the SAFETY section of this book. Your life, and that of others, can be in danger during the starting of the Tractor.

Always start and operate the engine in a well ventilated area.

If in an enclosed area, vent the exhaust to the outside.

DO NOT modify or tamper with the exhaust system.

Normal Starting

FIGS. 4-1 & 4-2: To start engine, proceed as follows:

1. Apply parking brake (1).

2. Put range gearshift lever (2) in neutral position.

3. Make sure PTO clutch lever (3) is in “off” position.

WARNING: Range gearshift lever must be in neutral position and PTO clutch lever must be in disengaged position.

4. Make sure HST pedals (4) are in neutral position.

5. Put position control lever (5) in down position.

6. Move throttle lever (6) to middle position.

7. Turn main switch to “ON” position (7) for 1-2 seconds

8. Turn main switch to “GLOW” position (8) for 5-10 seconds.

9. Turn main switch to “START” position (9). Release main switch the moment engine starts.

10. When the engine runs smoothly, set the engine speed to approximately 1 500 rpm to let the engine and the hydraulic system warm for several minutes. Do not load a cold engine.

WARNING: Range gearshift lever must be placed in neutral position to actuate neutral switch and permit operation of the starter motor.

FIG. 4-3: Battery charge indicator lamp (1) and engine oil pressure lamp (2) on indicator light strip should go out when the engine starts. If either light remains lit, STOP ENGINE IMMEDIATELY and investigate source of problem.

NOTE: If Engine will not start and run after several attempts, refer to “Maintenance” section in this book and bleed any air that may be present in the fuel system.

Restarting Warm Engine

When restarting an engine that is still warm from previous use, the same procedure is used as with “Normal Starting” except step No.6 may be omitted. Use of glow plugs is not necessary when starting a warm engine.

Cold Weather Starting

Procedure for starting an engine in colder ambient temperatures is identical to “Normal Starting” procedure except for the following:

1. Longer use of glow plugs may be required. Instead of the normal 5-10s, main switch may need to be selected to “glow” for 10-20s to adequately warm engine combustion chambers.

2. At temperatures below 4°C (39°F) use of No.1 (No.1-D) diesel fuel is recommended due to possible “fuel gelling” characteristics of No.2 (No.2-D) fuel at cold ambient temperature.

3. The central hydraulic reservoir in addition to transmission and center housing lubrication, will require additional warm-up time due to colder (thicker) oil. Refer to “Warm-Up Period” at right.

4. Test all controls (steering, braking, etc) prior to operating the tractor.

NOTE: Installation of accessory engine block heater is recommended in cold weather conditions. Consult your ISEKI Dealer.

IMPORTANT: Under no circumstances should either or other starting fluid be used to start engines equipped with glow plugs. Severe engine damage will result should starting fluid contact a hot glow plug.

If, for some reason, a booster battery is required to start Tractor, ensure booster battery is connected in parallel. When using booster battery and booster cables always connect positive (+) terminals together first. Then install booster cable on booster battery negative (-) terminal and ground final booster cable end on Tractor away from Tractor battery.

Warm-Up Period

After starting a cold engine, let engine idle at slow speed to make sure all engine components are lubricated. In colder ambient temperatures, extended warm-up will be required to also warm hydraulic fluid and lubricate drive line components. Suggested warmup period:

IMPORTANT: Improper warm-up can result in:

・Severe engine damage

・Hydraulic pump seizure

・Drive line bearing /gear damage

・Sluggish steering /braking

CAUTION: Make sure parking brake is securely applied and all controls are in neutral while warming unit. Do not leave unit unattended.

Operator Observations

Constant attention should be paid to the following points during operation:

・Engine oil pressure lamp will come on in case of low engine oil pressure. Stop engine immediately.

・Battery charge lamp will come on if battery is not being charged properly. Stop engine and investigate cause.

・ Coolant temperature gauge needle will indicate H(hot) in case of over-heated engine. Stop engine, allow to cool, and investigate cause.

・Fuel level should not be allowed to empty as running out of fuel may result with need to bleed air from fuel system.

CAUTION: DO NOT attempt to service Tractor with engine running or hot. Allow to cool.

NOTE: Refer to “Trouble-Shooting” when defect is indicated, to assist locating problem.

Tractor is equipped with a switch system to protect the operator.

To permit Tractor to be started (starter motor to operate), ALL the following is required:

・ Operator seated on the seat.

・Range gearshift lever in Neutral.

・PTO clutch lever in disengage position.

WARNING: Neutral switch system is installed for your protection. DO NOT bypass or modify the neutral start switch system. If the neutral start switch system does not operate properly as detailed above, contact your Dealer immediately and have the system repaired.

Periodically check that the starting circuit is functioning correctly. The procedure for this is check list as follows.

1. Check that there are no bystanders around the tractor should it inadvertently start.

2. Depress the brake pedal. Attempt to start the tractor with the range gear and PTO in neutral position. The Tractor should start.

3. Depress the brake pedal. Attempt to start the Tractor with the range gear engaged and the PTO in ON position. The Tractor should NOT start.

4. Depress the brake pedal. Attempt to start the Tractor with the range gear in neutral and the PTO engaged. The Tractor should NOT start.

If starting system is not working correctly it must be repaired immediately by your Dealer.

Ground Speed Selection

FIG. 4-4: The hydrostatic transmission provides variable speed control in forward or reverse.

Range gearshift lever (1) provides 2 major changes in ground speed.

IMPORTANT: STOP Tractor whenever shifting range gearshift lever (1).

HST forward pedal (2) controls forward travel speed. As the pedal is progressively pushed down, ground speed will increase correspondingly. When the pedal is released, it will return to the neutral position.

HST reverse pedal (3) controls reverse travel speed. As the pedal is progressively pushed down, ground speed will increase correspondingly. When released, pedal will return to neutral position.

IMPORTANT: For optimum operation, keep engine speed above 2 600 rpm whenever operating the HST pedal.

TABLE 3: Arrangement of gear with appropriate ground speeds, in order from slow to fast, are shown in the chart at right.

NOTE: Ground speed indicated at 2 600 engine rpm with 26 x 12.00 - 12 agriculture, turf and industrial type rear tires.

Stopping Tractor

Reduce engine speed and press brake pedal. Put range gearshift lever in neutral position. Depress brake pedal firmly and apply parking brake.

CAUTION: Never start traveling with the parking brakes applied, brake perfor mance will be effected as they heat up.

Allow engine to idle for several minutes to allow cool ing. Then turn main switch to “OFF” for shutting off the engine. Lower 3-point linkage and remove key from ignition.

FIG. 4-5: Always park the tractor on level area when ever possible. If hillside parking is necessary, put block behind both rear wheels as shown.

NOTE: Rear and Mid PTO can be operated at the same time or independently.

3-POINT LINKAGE

3-point linkage combines tractor and implement into one working unit. Implement position and raising are controlled hydraulically. In addition, implement weight and loads impose downward pressure at Tractor rear wheels to increase traction.

Linkage Controls

FIG. 4-15: Control quadrant, to right of operator’s seat, controls the system to provide the following linkage control functions:

Position Control - Maintains Linkage position at constant height in relation to the tractor. As 3-point linkage position control lever (1) is moved backward, linkage and implement are raised. Moving lever forward will lower hitch to selected position. Each lever setting provides a specific linkage and implement position.

CAUTION: Use 3-point linkage position control lever (1) when attaching or detaching implements.

FIG. 4-16: Lowering rate control knob (1) controls “rate of drop” of 3 point linkage and implement. Turn the knob (1) clockwise to slow the dropping rate. Turn the knob (1) counterclockwise to increase the dropping rate. Turning the knob (1) clockwise fully will lock implement in raised position.

CAUTION: When working on or around mounted implements, always lower to ground prior to work. If implement must be raised, always block implement and lower links securely.

Rear Linkage

FIG. 4-17: Linkage consists of several major components for implement attachment and operation:

Lower Links (1) - Primary attaching points to lower implement pins.

Lift Rods (2) - Connect lower links to hydraulic lift arms for raising/lowering lower links. The lift rod connected to the right lower link has provisions for leveling the implement (side to side).

Check Chains (3) - Reduce side sway of implement.

Top Link (4) - Adjustable turnbuckle type to level implement (front to rear).

CAUTION: Make sure that all pins after adjustment is made. Always use pins supplied with the tractor.

WARNING: Stay clear from the area of the rear linkage system when controlling it.

Attaching Implements

CAUTION: Always use POSITION CONTROL to attach/detach implements to provide precise control of hitch.

FIG. 4-18: Back the tractor to implement by centering with implement linkage frame.

Raise or lower the linkage by using position control lever (1) and align left lower link end with corresponding implement attaching pin.

Lock the brakes, shut off the engine and remove the key.
