Warm-up procedure -Transmission-Hydraulic Oil Warm-up procedure for Transmission-Hydraulic Oil in Cold weather Steering,transmission and hydraulic systems are slow to function when a tractor is started in cold weather. 1. Connect the jumper hose (A) ends into the hydraulic couplers of aux valve 1, as shown in Fig. 2. Apply parking brake, and assure tractor F/R shuttle, speed and range transmission levers are in neutral.

3. Operator should not engage F/R shuttle, speed and range transmission levers until the warm-up process is completed. 4. Start the engine and idle at 850 RPM for 2 minutes, and then slowly increase RPM to 1500.

5. Move the aux lever 1 (B), as shown in Fig. in raise condition (rearward) until oil warms to operating temperature. 6. To check warm-up progress, turn the steering wheel side to side. When the wheel turns smoothly, without hesitation, oil has warmed up sufficiently to operating temperature. 7. After warming up, gradually increase the engine RPM to high Idle for a minute. 8. Return aux lever 1 (B) to neutral position. 9. Remove jumper hose (A).
