Tractor Storage

IMPORTANT: If the tractor will not be used for months, use the following procedure to reduce corrosion and deterioration to a minimum. Use storage kit for AR41785 and 0,95 l (0.25 U.S.gal.) engines and additional rust inhibitor AR41870.

1. Carry out air filter service. (See air filter service in Service section)
2. If coolant is already in tractor for 2 years, rinse cooling system (see" cleaning cooling system " in Service section.
3. Change engine oil filter and oil(B).
4. Drain fuel and fill with 4 liters (1.1 U.S.gal.) of fuel. After add 0.4 liter (0.11 U.S.gal.) of rust inhibitor.
5. Add 0.25 liter of rust inhibitor to transmission/hydraulic system.

6. Start engine and run until working temperature is reached. As well as raising and lowering hydraulic hitch several times. Shut off engine.
7. Add 0.5 liter (0.13 U.S.gal.) of rust inhibitor to fuel tank (A).
8. Add 0.5 liter (0.13 U.S.gal.) of rust inhibitor to crankcase (B).

9. Remove protector (C) and disconnect cord of fuel shut off solenoid (D). This prevents engine starting when cranking it.
10. Disconnect air intake hose from system. Add 0.1 liter (0.03 U.S.gal.) of inhibitor to system and reconnect hose. Move hand throttle backwards to slow idle position. Crank engine a few times.
11. Loosen fan belt after engine has cooled.
12. Remove and clean battery. Store it in a dry and cool place. Keep it charged.
13. Secure or block clutch pedal in disconnected position.
14. Cover exposed metallic surfaces with grease or rust inhibitor.
15. Use adhesive plastic and tape to seal air entry points, exhaust pipe, vent (A) and filler neck etc.
16. Cover instrument panel with opaque plastic to prevent discoloration of gauges.
17. Raise tires off ground. Protect them from sunlight.
18. Clean underside of tractor. Retouch paintwork that is scratched or marked.
19. If storing tractor outdoors, cover it up with a waterproof tarp.
