TIE

ROD

ADJUSTMENT

(Toe-In)

The

caster

(forward

slant

of

the

kingpin)

and

the

camber

(tilt

of

the

wheels

out

at

the

top)

requires

no

adjustment.

Automotive

steering

principles

have

been

used

to

determine

the

caster

and

camber

on

the

tractor.

The

front

wheels

should

be

toe-in

1/8”.

To

adjust

the

toe-in,

loosen

the

hex

jam

nut,

remove

the

elastic

locknut,

lift

the

tie

rod

end

out

of

the

hole

in

the

steering

arm

and

screw

the

tie-rod

end

in

or

out

to

make

your

adjustment.

The

distance

”B"

must

be

less

than

"A"

BATTERY

CARE

Battery

Failure

-

Many

times

new

batteries

are

returned

for

charging

within

a

few

days

or

a

week

after

sale.

Before

re¬

turning

the

battery

to

the

dealer

who

sold

you

the

tractor,

make

these

following

checks.

1.

Was

the

battery

fully

charged

when

installed?

The

dry-

pack

battery

should

have

been

placed

on

a

charger

and

the

specific

gravity

of

the

battery

should

read

1.265

to

1.275

before

it

was

installed

in

the

tractor.

2.

Were

the

battery

terminals

clean,

greased

and

properly

tightened

when

the

battery

was

installed?

3.

Batteries

are

usually

involved

in

ANY

starting

failure,

however,

insufficient

hours

of

driving,

worn

cables,

trouble

in

the

electrical

system,

corroded

connections,

slipping

drive

belt

can

cause

a

battery

to

become

dis¬

charged

without

the

battery

being-a

fault.

SERVICING

YOUR

BATTERY

It

is

all

right

to

use

drinking

water

in

your

battery,

exclud¬

ing

mineral

water.

Adding

water

to

a

battery

cell

will

lower

the

specific

gravity

of

the

electrolyte.

Water

should

not

be

added

unless

the

tractor

is

going

to

be

run

immediately

during

freezing

weather.

Maintain

electrolyte

level

in

the

battery

to

the

level

indi¬

cated

on

the

top

of

the

battery.

Keep

the

terminals

clean

and

coated

with

grease.

BATTERY

STORAGE

If

your

tractor

Is

to

be

stored

during

an

off-season,

the

battery

should

be

removed

from

the

tractor,

placed

on

a

charger

until

the

specific

gravity

reads

1.265

to

1.275

and

stored

at

approximately

720F.

Batteries

should

not

be

placed

directly

on

cement

as

this

will

drain

the

battery.

Re¬

charge

to

bring

the

specific

gravity

to

normal

before

placing

It

In

the

tractor

after

storage.
