PROTECTING THE ELECTRONIC/ELECTRICAL
SYSTEMS DURING CHARGING OR WELDING
PRECAUTIONS
To avoid damage to the electronic/electrical systems,
always observe the following:
1. Never make or break any of the charging circuit
connections, including the connection at the
batteries, when the engine is running.
2. Never short any of the charging components to
ground.
3. Do not use a booster battery of higher than 12
volts, nominal voltage.
4. Always observe correct polarity when installing
the batteries or using a booster battery to jump
start the engine. Follow the instructions in
Section 2 of this manual when jump starting the
tractor. Connect positive to positive and negative
to negative.
5. Always disconnect the ground cable from the
batteries before carrying out arc welding on the
tractor or on any implement attached to the
tractor.
• Position the welder ground cable clamp as
close to the welding area as possible.
• If welding is to be carried out in close
proximity to a computer module, then the
module should be removed from the tractor.
It is recommended that this procedure be
carried out by an authorized dealer.
• Never allow welding cables to lay on, near or
across any electrical wiring or electronic
component while welding is in progress.
