TRACTORS WITH HAZARD LIGHTS
Hazard lights are installed on each side of the
ROPS. To replace the bulbs proceed as follows:
• Insert a thin bladed screwdriver, or similar tool,
between an amber lense and the hazard light
body, then twist to separate the lense from the
body. Refer to Figure 36.
• Push the bulb inward and turn counterclockwise,
then pull the bulb outward to remove from the
light socket. See Figure 36.
Figure 36
• Align the new bulb with the socket slot, push
the bulb into the socket, and turn clockwise to
lock it in the socket.
• Position the lense on the hazard light body and
push the lense onto the body until it snaps
firmly into place on the body.
SERVICING ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Fuses are installed to protect the tractor’s electrical
system from damage caused by excessive amper-
age. Always use the same capacity fuse for
replacement. If the electrical system does not func-
tion, check for blown fuses. See Figure 37.
Figure 37
If you have a recurring problem with blown fuses,
have the tractor’s electrical system checked by your
Cub Cadet dealer.
Main Fuse
The main fuse in the tractor wire harness protects
the tractor’s entire electrical system. A blown main
fuse will prevent battery current from passing
though the harness.
To replace the main fuse:
• Raise the tractor hood.
• Locate the main fuse under the dash panel,
along the tractor’s right frame rail. See Figure 38.
Figure 38
• Pull the fuse from the fuse holder and replace
with the same capacity fuse (30 Amp). NEVER
use a higher amperage fuse.
• Lower the tractor hood.
Accessing the Lower Dash Panel Area
Some electrical components are housed inside the
lower dash panel. To access the area, remove the
dash panel insert by removing the two screws. See
Figure 39.
Figure 39
To reinstall the dash panel insert, hook the retaining
lip at the bottom of the insert over the bottom edge
of the dash opening, pivot the insert upward into
position, and secure with the two screws.
