Checking the Wiring and
Fasteners
•Inspect the tractor for any loose electrical
connections and secure them as required. Check
the wire routing to make sure moving parts do
not interfere with wires and cause a short.
•Assure all fasteners are tight.

as part of predelivery service or when a new clutch is
installed.

clutch bringing the load to full speed. Then
disengage the clutch.
2. Let the load come to a full stop, then engage
again.
