Oil atake Tube to Turbocharger 6 ‘The turbocharger, consists of an exhaust gas driven turbine, and air compressor wheels, mounted on ‘opposite ends of a common shaft. The wheels are enclosed by a housing, and the shaft by a center housing, Figure 6 ‘The turbine is a centripetal (from outside to center), radial inflow designed mechanism. Consisting of acastturbine wheel shroud and a specially designed housing that encloses the whee! and directs the flow of gas through the turbine housing. 2 c Fig. 6. Turbocharger Cross Section To intake manifold From Ai¢ Cleaner From Exhaust Manifold ‘To Exhaust Muffler Compressor Wheel Bearings ‘Turbine Wheel ‘Oil Supply to Bearing Beprcoee ‘The compressor is a centrifugal, radial outflow mechanism consisting of a cast compressor wheel and a specially designed housing that encloses the wheel and directs the flow of air through the compressor. The center housing supports the compressor and turbine wheel shaft in a pair of identical bearings which contain oil holes for directing oil to the bearing bores and shaft journals. Passages drilled in the center housing provide for directing the oil, supplied by the engine from the inlet port to oil grooves machined inthe bearing bores, which align with holes inthe bearings.CONTROLS, INSTRUMENTS AND OPERAT 1 ON} Piston rings are installed at each end of the shaft, between the bearing and the adjacent turbine or compressor wheel to prevent lubricating oil from entering the turbine and the compressor area During operation of a turbocharged engine, exhaust gas from the engine exhaust manifold flows into the turbine. The exhaust gas pressure, and the heat energy, extracted from the gas cause the turbine wheel to rotate which, in turn, causes, the compressor wheel fo rotate. ‘The cooled and expanded exhaust gas leaving the turbine wheel, is directed by the turbine housing to the engine exhaust system, which expels it to the atmosphere Rotation of the compressor wheel, causes ambient air from the engine air cleaner to be drawn into the compressor housing, where it is compressed and delivered to appropriate ducting which delivers it to the engine intake manifold, Figure 7. ig. 7. Turbocharger Engine Schematic 1, Engine Exhaust Gas Flow 5. Compressor 2. Compressed Air Flow 6. From Air Cleaner 3. Exhaust Gas Discharge 7, Engine Cylinder 4. Turbine ‘The increased volume and density of the air thus delivered to the engine cylinders permit a corresponding increase in the volume of fuel that can be introduced into the cylinders while ‘maintaining the ar to fuel ratio required for proper combustion. Since engine power output is a function of the volume of fuel burned, the increase in the volume of fuel introduced as a result of turbocharger operation results in an increase in engine power output. IMPORTANT: To ensure adequate lubrication ofthe turbocharger, allow the engine to idle at 1000 rev/min for approximately one minute after starting the engine. To allow the turbocharger, and exhaust manifold, 10 cool down, and prevent any possible distortion of components, idle the engine at 1000 rev/min for approximately one minute, before stopping the engine. COOLANT IMMERSION HEATER (where fitted) This dealer installed accessory consists of a heating element fitted into one of the core plug apertures cn the right-hand side of the block. Dependent upon regulations pertaining to your country, the heater may be available in 115 volts A.C. or 230 volts A.C. form. This accessory provides easier starting down to -29°C (-20° F). WARNING: To avoid shocks or other in- Juries, never use an unearthed or inade- quate extension lead. Always use an earthed, three core extension lead which is rated for at least a 15 amp load. ‘To operate the heater, connect the heater plug to a suitable 115 or 230 volt outlet, as appropriate, for up to four hours before carrying out the cold weather starting procedure, NOTE: The heater may be left plugged in for more than four hours without harm. However, no noticeable increase in the heater’s effectiveness will be achieved after this period.CONTROLS, INSTRUMENTS AND OPERAT/ ON ST Fig. 8. Connecting Up an Auailiary Battery 1.

Always stop the engine, firmly apply the parking brake and place both trans- mission levers in neutral before leaving the trac- tor. The yw. we uperate in a conven- tional H-pattem, protrude from the center of the transmission top cover. See Figure 1 ‘The main gearshift lever (the left-hand lever) is used to select any one of four forward or one reverse gear ratio. The range lever (the right-hand lever) is used to select the high (H) or low (L) range which has the effect of doubling the number of available ear ratios, ‘Stop the tractor and fully depress the clutch before ‘moving either of the gear levers. The shift pattern is clearly marked on a decal affixed to the instrument panel and is also shown in Figure L1.An explanation of the decal and road speed charts are Provided at the end of section C. NOTE: A neutral start switch prevents operation of the starting motor unless the transmission range fever is ix neutral (N). IMPORTANT: [fit is necessary to tow the trac- tor, the range and main gearshift levers must both be in neuiral. DUAL POWER TRANSMISSION Dual Power transmission is an hydraulically operated planetary gear set within the transmission housing which allows the operator to select Powerdrive (underdrive) in any forward or reverse gear while on the move. This, effectively, increases torque, reduces tractor speed by approximately 22% and doubles the number of available gear ratios, forward and reverse. Powerdrive is hydraulically engaged, the valve being actuated by a solenoid controlled by arocker ‘switch on the instrument console. See Figure 3. IMPORTANT: At ambient temperatures below - 18°C (0"F), tractors fitted with Dual Power shouldCONTROLS, INSTRUMENTS AND 0PERAT/ ON} A ‘be operated only in Powerdrive (tortoise symbol) ‘for the first 15 minutes. Operating in direct drive (hare symbol) with very cold oil may result in damage to the Dual Power clutches due to insufficient oil flow. The gearshift lever positions and Dual Power positions are shown in the road speed charts at the end of Section C - Specifications. IMPORTANT: A tractor with Dual Power transmission must not be tow-started. When using slave battery to start the engine ensure that the polarity is correct (positive to positive, negative to negative) otherwise the alternator may be damaged. Powerdrive must be engaged (tortoise symbol illuminated) and both gear levers in neutral when operating stationary P.T.O. equipment otherwise damage to the transmission may occur due to overheating. BA warwine: Aivays engage te parking brake before dismounting from the tractor Dual Power will not prevent the tractor from rolling when the engine is shut off FOUR WHEEL DRIVE (where fitted) Four wheel drive greatly improves traction in difficult conditions. The drive to the front wheels is designed to be engaged or disengaged with the tractor stationary or moving. ‘The drive tothe front wheels is engaged by means of a solenoid controlled by a rocker switch on the instrument panel. Sec Figure 3 Press the green section of the switch to engage the drive to the front wheels. Press the black section of the switch to revert to rear wheel drive only. ‘The front axle assembly incorporates a limited slip differential forimproved traction and stability. The limited slip differential engages and disengages automatically and requires no action on the part of the operator. When cleaning the tractor, Particularly if using a hose or pressure washer, avoid directing the water jet directly at the breather located on top of the axle. See Figure 12. Fig. 12. Four Wheel Drive Axle 1. Axle breather ‘Water entering the axle may cause severe damage 10 driveline components. WARNING: Tractors with four wheel drive engaged or disengaged should not be allowed to exceed 25 mph (40 kph). Overspeeding by towing or coasting downhill with the clutch depressed or the transmission in neutral may cau- se loss of control, personal injury to the operator or bystanders or failure of the driveshaft. Keep the tractor in the same gear going downhill as would be used when going uphill. NOTE: To avoid excessive tire wear when travelling on the public highway or any hard surface, itis recommended that four wheel drive be disengaged. IMPORTANT: The front and rear tires on a four wheel drive tractor have been carefully matched 10 provide optimumtraction. Always replace tires with the same size as originally fitted and, preferably, ofthe same make and type. A mismatch will result in rapid tire wear and/or serious damage to driveline components. Ifin doubt, consult your ‘New Holland dealer. uCONTROLS, INSTRUMENTS AND OPERAT/ ON | RUNNING-IN (BREAK-IN) PROCEDURE ‘Your new New Holland tractor will provide tong and dependable service if given proper care during the 50 hour running-in period and if serviced at the recommended intervals. Avoid overloading the engine. Operating in too high a gear under heavy load may cause excessive ‘engine overloading. Overloading occurs when the engine will not respond to a throttle increase. Do not operate without a load on the engine. This can be as harmful to the engine as overloading. ‘Vary the type of operation undertaken so that the engine is subjected to heavy as well as light loads during the running-in period, Use the lower gear ratios when pulling heavy loads and avoid continuous operation at constant engine speeds. Operating the tractor in too low a gear with a light load and high engine speed will waste fuel. You will save fuel and minimise engine wear by selecting the correct gear ratio for each particu- Jar operation. Check the instruments frequently and keep the radiator and varjous oil reservoirs filled to the recommended levels. DRIVING THE TRACTOR WARNING: Observe the following precautions when driving the tractor. © Watch where you are going-especially at row ‘ends, on roads and around trees. © Use extreme caution when operating on steep slopes. © Keep the tractor in gear when going down hill. Use a low gear to maintain control with ‘minimum braking. © If the tractor is stuck, reverse out to prevent overturning the unit 2 © Always use the drawbar or lower links in the lowered position for pul-type work. Do not pull from any other part of the tractor since it may tip backward. © When driving on public roads, have consi- deration for other road users. Pull in to the side of the road so that any following traffic ‘may pass. © Dip the tractor headlights when meeting a vehicle on the highway at night. Keep the lights adjusted so they do not blind the operator of an oncoming vehicle. © Engage the clutch slowly when driving out of a ditch, gully or up a steep hillside. Disengage the clutch promptly if the front wheels rise off the ground. © Reduce speed before turning or applying the brakes. Lock the brake pedals together when travelling at high speed or on the highway so that both wheels are braked simultaneously when making an emergency stop. © Neverapply the differential lock when turning. (© Use extreme caution and avoid hard application of the wractor brakes when pulling heavy, towed loads at road speeds. © Towed loads that weigh more than the weight of the tractor should have brakes for safe operation. Ensure compliance with local regulations. © Always sit in the driver’s seat while starting or driving the tractor. INDEPENDENT POWER TAKE-OFF ‘The power take-off (P.T.O.). -transfers engine power directly to mounted or trailed equipment via a splined shaft at the rear of the tractor.CONTROLS, INSTRUMENTS AND OPERATION ‘The P.T.O. system is independent, that is, the P-T.O. may be engaged or disengaged whether the tractor is moving or stationary. Rotation of the shaft is independent of the clutch and of tractor speed and is related directly to the speed of the engine. ‘The system utilises the standard 6-spline, 1.375 in. (84.9 mm) diameter shaft designed to operate at 540 rev/min., the speed at which most P.T.O. actuated equipment is designed to run, ‘When 2-speed P-T.0. is specified, an additional 2-spline shaft is supplied which, when installed, wifl operate at 1000 rev/min. Tractors with singlespeed P.T.O. cannot be converted to 540/ 1000 rev/min. P.T.O. Attaching P.T.O. Driven Equipment A © Firmly apply the parking brake. WARNING: Before attaching or detaching equipment or changing the P.TO. shaft: © Ensure thatboth gearshift levers are in neutral and the P.T.O. lever is in the disengaged position. © Stop the engine. © Ensure that the P.T.0. shaft has stopped turning. ‘Mount or hitch the equipment to the tractor as outlined in either: THREE-POINT LINKAGE or TRAILED EQUIPMENT. To connect P-T.0. driven equipment to the P.T.O. shaft, tilt the guard (1) Figure 13, upward, to gain access. It is not necessary to remove the guard.

Shut off the tractor engine and the P.T.O. and wait for all movement to stop before working on the P.T.O. or equipment (© Ensure that the P.T.0. guard is installed when using P.T.O.-driven equipment. © Firmly apply the parking brake latch, place both gearshift levers in neutral and block all four wheels before operating any stationary P.T.0. ‘equipment, © To avoid inadvertent movement of the im- plement, disengage the P.T.0. after each use. Independent P-T.O. may be engaged or disengaged whether the tractor is moving or stationary. When two-speed P.T.O. is specified, an additional 21-spline shaft is supplied. Operation is as for single-speed P-T.0, However, when the 6-spline shaft is removed and the 21- spline shaft installed, the shaft engages with different gears within the rear axle housing to provide a P.T.O. speed of 1000 rev/min. at 2050 engine rev/min. Generally speaking, P-T.O. driven equipment having a high power requirement is designed to operate at 1000 rev/min. and will be provided with a 21-spline female coupling for ‘attachment to the tractor P.T.O. shaft. See the following text entitled Changing The P.T.O. Output Shaft. IMPORTANT: Implements with a high power requirement should be operated with the 1000 rev/ ‘min, P.T.0.

If it is necessary to use the 6-spline shaft to operate implements having a power requirement of more than 75 hp., then it is strongly recommended that the implement is fitted with a slip clutch to avoid damage to the P.T.0. ouput shaft and other trac tor components,CONTROLS, INSTRUMENTS AND OPERAT NS ‘To engage the P.T.O., star the engine and ease the P.T.O. selector lever (1) Figure 15, toward the seat in order to clear the ‘disengaged position’ detent (2), then move the lever forward to engage the PTO. ‘Under normal conditions and with good quality ‘equipment, the P.T.O. can be “feathered” during engagement by gently moving the selector lever forward until the P.T.O. shaft just begins to rotate, pausing and then fully engaging the P.T.0. IMPORTANT: To prevent premature wear of the P.O. clutch, do not ‘feather’ or slip the clutch for more than 2 seconds when engaging the P.T.O. Do not feather the clutch at all when disengaging the P-T.0. IMPORTANT: To avoid shock loads to the PLT.O,, reduce engine speed to approximately 1000 rev/min when engaging the P.T.O., then increase engine speed by means of the throttle to the recommended speed, as shown in the following table, to obtain 540 or 1000 rev/min at the P.T.O. Shaft. Similarly, to avoid overstressing the tractor P.O. clutch brake, slow down the implement by reducing engine speed before disengaging the P.T.O. This is particularly important with implements having a high inertia. Such implements should always be fitted with an overrun clutch. Fig. 16, P:7.0, shaft Replacement 1.

WARNING: Do not pull from the lower links with the links above the horizontal position. Always use the drawbar, pick-up hitch or lower links in the lowered position for pull-type work, otherwise the tractor may overturn rearwards. NOTE: When supporting equipment on the drawbar ensure that the total weight on the rear ale does not exceed the maximum static downward load or the rear tire load capacity, whichever is the lower (see Rear Tire Pressures And Loads. in section C). Safety Chain IMPORTANT: When transporting equipment on the highway itis recommended that a safety chain having a tensile strength equal 1 the gross weight of the implement be installed between the tractor and implement hitch. See following text. 20 ‘When towing implements On the highway, use a safety chain, Figure 24, with a tensile strength equal to orgreater than the gross weight of the implement to be towed by the tractor. This will restrain the implement ifthe hitch pin is displaced. After attaching the safety chain, make a trial run by driving the tractor to the right and to the left for a short distance to check the safety chain adjustment. If necessary, re-adjust to eliminate a tight or loose chain. Check the implement operator's manual for implement weight and attaching hardware specifications. Safety chains and attaching hardware are available from your New Holland dealer. HYDRAULIC SYSTEM Your tractor is equipped with a hydraulic system providing accurate and sensitive control over a wide range of operating conditions Two distinct systems are incorporated: 1, Position Control, 2. Top Link Sensing Draft Control. ‘The control system selected will depend on the type of implement in use and the operating conditions. Position Control provides accurate and sensitive control of implements, such as sprayers, rakes, mowers, etc., that operate above the ground. Position Control may also be used with ground- engaging equipment. However, unless the field is ‘uly flat, it cannot be recommended, When in Po- sition Control, the tractor and implement become, in effect, a rigid unit and unevenness in the surface of the land will cause the tractor/implement combination to rise and fallCONTROLS, INSTRUMENTS AND O?PERAT/ ONT A Draft Control is most suitable for mounted or semi-mounted implements operating in the ground, Changes in the working depth or changes in soil resistance cause the draft loading on the implement to increase or decrease. Fig. 25, Hydraulic Controls 1. System selector 2 Position Control seting 3. Draft Control setting 4. Adjustable stop 5. Lift control lever ‘This change in draft loading is sensed through the top link ofthe three-point linkage and the hydraulic. system responds by raising or lowering the implement to restore the original draft loading. In this way a uniform draft load is maintained on the implement. The system responds to both upper link compression and tension loads and is described as double-acting. System Controls ‘The system is controlled by the lift control lever and system selector operating in a quadrant to the right of the seat ‘The system selector (1) Figure 25, is used to select Draft Control, Position Control or a combination of the two in order to make the system more or less sensitive to changes in the draft loading. IMPORTANT: Always set the system selector to the Position Control setting (rearmost notch) at any time when not actually operating in Draft Con- trol, such as when attaching equipment, trans- porting equipment or when no equipment is attached. The system selector operates in a slot that has a number of notches formed in the left-hand side to prevent accidental movement of the selector. To ‘move the selector to an alternative setting, ease it to the left in order to clear the notches. ‘When the selector is at the front ofthe slot (3), the system is in Draft Control. Moving the selector progressively away from this setting will decrease Draft Control sensitivity while increasing Position Control sensitivity. When the selector is in the rearmost noich (2), the system is in Position Con- trol ‘The Draft and Position Control settings are clearly identified by a decal adjacentto the system selector. The lift control lever (5) is used to raise or lower the three-point linkage (and implement) to the required height or working depth. An adjustable stop (4) is provided to enable the lift control lever to be returned to the selected setting during use. With reference to Figure 25, ease the system selector to the left and move it rearwards to the Position Control setting (rearmost notch) When a fully mounted implement is attached to the three-point linkage, raise the implement in stages, ensuring that there is atleast 4 in. (100 mm) clearance between the implement and any part of the tractor. If necessary, slacken the knob on the adjustable stop, locate it against the rear edge of the lift con- trol lever and tighten the knob. This will prevent the linkage being raised further and so avoid the possibilty of the implement damaging the tractor when fully raised. 21CONTROLS, INSTRUMENTS AND OPERA NT | Set the required implement heigh/depth using the lift control lever. Pull the lever back to raise the implement, push forward to lower. Implement height/depth is relative to the position of the lever in the quadrant. When the required implement working height! depth has been established, set the adjustable stop against the front edge of the lift control lever. This will locate the position for repeated use. ‘The lever may be eased sideways (to the right) when it is required to by-pass the adjustable stop. WARNING: When transporting equipment ‘on the three-point linkage, select Position Control, raise the implement and set the adjustable stop against the front edge of the lift control lever 10 prevent accidental forward movement of the lever which could result in attached equipment lowering and becoming damaged, damaging the road surface or causing personal injury. ‘Top Link Sensing Draft Control Operation To operate in Draft Control, ease the system selector to the [eft and move it to the foremost notch. This is the most sensitive Draft Control setting and variations in soil density will cause the hydraulic system to respond with relatively large corrections, i.e, movement ofthe hydraulic linkage and attached equipment. Drive into the field and lower the implement into work using the lft control lever. Push the lever forward to increase the draft loading. Pull rearwards to reduce the draft loading. In most circumstances forward movement of the lift control lever will increase implement depth and rearward movement will reduce the depth. An automatic flow control valve is incorporated within the hydraulic system to provide arate of lift in proportion to movement of the lift control lever ‘orto draft signals from the 3-point linkage. 2 Once set, the tractor hydraulic system will automatically adjust the implement depth to ‘maintain an even pull on the tractor and so reduce wheel slip to a minimum. ‘When the required implement working depth has been established, set the adjustable stop adjacent to the front edge of the lift control lever to locate the position for repeated use. The lift control lever may be eased sideways to bypass the adjustable stop, if required. Observe the implement as it pulls through the soil, Ifthe hydraulic system reaction (vertical movement of the implement) is too great or too frequent, move the system selector rearwards to the next notch. Ifimplement movements sill too great, move the selector progressively rearwards, towards the Position Control seiting, to further reduce sensitivity to a level suited to the soil conditions. NOTE: The Position Control setting is not recommended for soil-engaging implements. The Draft Control settings provide fine adjustment of hydraulic system sensitivity. However, quite large ‘changes of sensitivity may be obtained by locating the top link and/or pivot pin in a different hole in the lift rocker See Hydraulic Lift Rocker on page 18. ‘A remote Cylinder may be operated in conjunction with the three-point linkage by connecting the hose to the live tapping.

If over-heating occurs, stop the hydraulic motor until the oil cools. Ensure the flow control setting is at maximum and the engine speed at a minimum, appropriate to machine performance. If operating conditions are normal and high temperatures persist, install an oil cooler ini the motor return circuit. The maximum recommended operating temperature of the oil is 77°C (170°F). ‘© Your authorised New Holland dealer will supply the necessary fittings or make the installation for you. Operating Several Remote Valves Simultaneously or Remote Valves and Hydraulic Lift Simultaneously NOTE: Hydraulic pump output varies with engine speed. Oil flow will be relatively constant in the remote control valve circuits ifthe flow control val- ve is used to provide reduced oil flow, thus provi- ding constant operating speed for hydraulic motors, 26 etc., even if engine speed varies. Maintain the engine speed above the minimum required for simultaneous operation ofall the required circuits and vary ground speed by selection of the ‘appropriate gear ratio. If operating two or more remote control valves simultaneously or remote valves and the hydraulic lift all the flow control valves should be adjusted to provide a partial flow. If not so adjusted, all the available flow may be directed to the full flow circuit when the pressure in that circuit is less than that of the other circuits in use.

If the wheel track setting is adjusted beyond the initial factory position then you may be required to reposition the lights or fit auxiliary lighting to comply with legal requirements. Additionally, before travelling on the highway, ensure that the overall tractor width does not exceed the maximum permitted in your country. Rear wheel track adjustment is effected by changing the wheel rim relative to the center disc, the rim and/or the disc relative to the axle hub or by interchanging the rear wheels. WARNING: Tractor wheels are very heavy. Handle with care and ensure, when stored, that they cannot topple and cause injury. IMPORTANT: When interchanging left and right-hand wheel assemblies, ensure the ‘Ve of the tire tread remains pointing in the direction of forward travel. NOTE: With certain options and/or tire sizes, the smaller track settings may not be attainable due to ‘minimal clearance between tires and fenders or equipment. WARNING: Never operate the tractor with a loose wheel rim or disc. Always tighten nuts to the specified torque and at the recommended intervals. ‘The sectioned drawings shown in the table (Figure 34) illustrate the wheel rim and disc positions relative to the hub at various track width settings. ‘Track widths (the distance between the centers of the tires at ground level) are nominal and may vary by as much as 0.5 in.

(240 Bm) TRACTOR WEIGHTING For maximum performance in heavy draft con- ditions weight should be added to the tractor in the form of liquid ballast, cast iron weights or a combination of both, Front end ballast may be required for stability and steering control when weight is transferred from the front to the rear wheels as the implement is raised by the tractor three-point linkage. For optimum performance and efficiency, the trac~ tor should be ballasted so that approximately one third of the total tractor weight (less implement) is ‘on the front wheels. Four wheel drive tractors should be ballasted so the weight on the front wheels is approximately 40-50% of the total trac- tor weight. When a rear mounted implement is raised to the transport position, the weight on the front wheels, should be at least 20% of total tractor weight. ‘Add additional front end ballast, as required, for stability during operation and transport. Ballasting Of the front end may not always provide adequate stability if the tractor is operated at high speed on rough terrain, Reduce tractor speed and exercise caution under these conditions ‘When using front mounted to the rear wheels to maint iplements, add weight traction and stability IMPORTANT: Only sufficient weight should be added to provide traction and stability. Adding 32 ‘more weight than necessary results in unnecessary loads being imposed on the tractor and a higher ‘fuel consumption. When adding weight, adhere to the maximum tire capacity loading stated in the tables at the end ofthis section. If further informa- tion or assistance is required on tractor weighting consult your New Holland dealer. Do not add weight to the outer wheels of a dual wheel installation. ‘When adding ballast the total weight of the tractor including liquid, cast iron weights and mounted equipment (where specified) should not exceed the maximum shown in the following tables: WARNING: {f proper stability cannot be achieved within the following weighting limitations, reduce the load on the tractor until stability is restored. Weighting Limitations For optimum driveline reliability and tractive efficiency, maximum ballasted tractor weight (trac- tor plus ballast) must not exceed the following: Maximum Ballasted Weight - 2WD 5610.and 6610 10640 Ib. 4836 ke. 7610 and 7810 10800 1b. 4900 kg Maximum Ballasted Weight - 4WD All models, 11400 Ib, 5170 kg.

For four wheel drive vehicles, the figures shown in the above table are for continuous operation. For intermittent ‘operation, the front axle loading (including loaded loader bucket) may be increased to 12375 Ib. (5618 kg). Maximum Rear Axle Loading - 2WD 5610and 6610 110001b. 4990 kg. 7610 and 7810 12000 1b. 5443 kg. NOTE: Total rear axle weight is measured with only the rear wheels on the scales inclusive of liquid and cast iron ballast and with mounted equipment in the raised position. IMPORTANT: Do nor exceed the maximum gross vehicle weight (tractor plus ballast plus any ‘mounted equipment such as sprayers, tanks etc. in the raised position). See the following table ‘Maximum Gross Vehicle Weight All models 12650 Ibs. 5743 kg. IMPORTANT: Braking regulations in some ‘countries may impose lower gross vehicle weight limits for road transport than the figures quoted in the above table. Cast Iron Weights (option) Wafer type front end weights are available and are mounted on a substantial cast iron carrier secured by acentral locking pin and clamp bolts. (See Fi- gure 35) After removing the central locking pin, the weights may be removed as a complete set with the aid of suitable lifting gear. Lift the retaining plate, against spring pressure and turn through 90° to clear the rear of the weights. Extract the locking pin. A spring-loaded retaining plate beneath the handle of the locking pin prevents removal of the pin. lom7e ig 38. Front End Weights 1. Locking pin handle 2. Clamp bolts Alternatively, the weights can be removed individualy after removing the clamp bolts. WARNING: The tractor must not be operated unless both the central locking pin ‘and the clamp bolts are in position with the bolts tightened to 125 lbfft.(169 Nm). Recheck the bolt torques after 50 hours operation if the bolis have been disturbed for any reason. The front end wafer weights weigh 88 Ib. (40 kg) each and are available as a set of 6 or 10. Together with the weight carrer, the weight sets total 789 1b, (358 kg) or 1142 Ib. (518 kg) respectively. A towing facility is built into the weight carrier. However, if the weights are installed and a tow hook is required then a special weight with inbuilt tow hook is available (see Figure 35). The special weight with tow hook is twice the thickness of a standard weight and replaces the two center weights of the set. However, due to the shape ofthe casting, the special weight weighs no more than a single standard weight. This has the effect of reducing the total weight of the set by 88 Ib. (40 kg). 33CONTROLS, INSTRUMENTS AND OPERAT/ NS |, Fig. 36. Rear Wheel Weights Upto three cast iron weights may be added to each rear wheel. See Figure 36. The weights available for 30 in, manual adjust wheels weigh 70 Ib. (32 kg) each, giving a maximum rear axle ballast ‘weight of 420 Ib. (194 kg). For 36 and 38 in, manual adjust wheels and 30 in, power adjust wheels 100 Ib. (45 kg) weights are available permitting a maximum of 600 Ib. (272 kg) to be carried, Liquid Ballast Filling the front and rear tires with liquid ballast is convenient method of adding weight. A solution of calcium chloride and water is recommended, This gives a low freezing point and provides a higher density than plain water. NOTE: When filling a tire with calcium chloride/ water solution the valve should be at the highest point on the wheel. The valve should be at the lowest point when checking or adjusting air pressure ifthe tire contains liquid ballast. Special equipment is required to water ballast ti- res. See your New Holland dealer or tire supplier for details. ‘The table on the next page shows the quantity of calcium chloride and water for each tre size option 4 and is based on 0.6 kg of calcium chloride pet litre of water. The figures in the table will give a 90% fill of the front tire and a 754% fill of the rear tire. This calcium chloride/water solution will give protection from freezing down to an ambient temperature of - 46°C (5 1 ‘F) WARNING: When mixing the ballast solution itis imperative the calcium chloride flakes are added to the water and the solution stirred until the calcium chloride is dissolved. ‘Never add water to calcium chloride. If the flakes should contact the eyes, wash the eyes immediately with clean, cold water for at least 5 minutes. Consult a doctor as soon as possible. NOTE: Front tractor tubes do not have air/water valves fitted as standard equipment. A suitable air/ water valve must be fitted to enable front tires to be filled with calcium chloride solution. TIRE INFLATION Upon receiving your tractor, check the air pressure in the tires and recheck every 50 hours or weekly. ‘When checking tire pressures, inspect the tires for damaged tread and side walls. Neglected damage will lead to early tire failure. Inflation pressure affects the amount of weight that attire may carry, Locate the tire size for your tractor in the Tire Pressure and Load tables in section C. Do not exceed the load for the pressures listed. Do not over or under inflate the tires. A WARNING: Inflating or servicing tires can be dangerous. Whenever possible, trained personnel should be called in to service or install tires.

Each operation is numbered for easy reference. Where illustrations are provided, these have the same Figure number as the operation to which they refer. In addition to the regular service operations listed, the following items should be checked every 10 hours or daily during the first $0 hours of operation: © Transmission/hydraulics/rear axle oil level © Wheel nuts for tightness © Front axle hub oil levels (four wheel drive) At the first 50 hour service, ensure that the following additional service operations are carried out: © Check and adjust engine valve clearance © Check and adjust fan belt tension © Change hydraulic filter(s) and clean low pressure circuit strainer © Change front differential oil (four wheel drive) © Change front axle hub oil (four wheel drive) © Check torque of front end weight clamp bolts (where fitted) ‘© Clean, inspect and grease front wheel bearings (two wheel drive) © Check and adjust brakes IMPORTANT: Ensure that the tractor ison level ground and that all rams are extended, where applicable, before checking oil levels. To prevent contamination when changing oils, filters, etc., always clean the area around filler, level and drain plugs, dipsticks and filters. Before connecting remote cylinders, ensure that oil contained within them is clean, has not degenerated due to long storage and is of the correct grade.LUBRICATION AND MAINTEN NC SS 7; DIESEL FUEL Before handling fuel, filling tanks, etc., observe the following: © Under no circumstances should gasoline, gasohol, or dicsclhol (a mixture of diesel fucl and alcohol) be added to diesel fuel because of increased fire or explosion risks. In addition, in a closed container, such as a fuel tank, they are more explosive than pure gasoline. Do not use these blends. Additionally, dieselhol is not approved due o possible inadequate lubrication of the fuel injection system. © Clean the filler cap area before removal of the cap. Fill the fuel tank at the end of each day to reduce overnight condensation. © Never remove the filler cap or refuel with the engine running ‘© Keep control of the fuel pipe nozzle and do not smoke when filling the thank. © Do not fill the tank to capacity. Allow room for expansion and wipe up spilt fuel imme- diately. ‘© If the original fuel tank cap is lost or damaged, replace it with aNew Holland approved cap and tighten securely. A non-approved cap may not be safe. ‘© Keep equipment properly maintained. © Use diesel fuel with a minimum cetane rating (0f 40 (diesel fuel No. 2) at ambient temperatures above -7° C (20° F) or diesel fuel No. 1 below this temperature.At very low ambient tempe- ratures and/or at high altitudes, a fuel with a higher cetane rating is required. © Diesel fuel with a sulphur content above 1.3% is not recommended. © Precautions should be taken to ensure that stored fuel is kept free of dirt, water, etc. © Fuel should be stored in black iron tanks, not galvanised tanks, as the galvanised coating will react with the fuel and form compounds that will contaminate the injection pump and injectors. © Bulk storage tanks should be installed away from direct sunlight and angled slightly so that the outlet pipe is at the higher end. In this way sediment in the tank will settle away from the outlet pipe. If there, is no filter on the outlet pipe, then a funnel with a fine mesh screen should be used when filling the tractor fuel tank. © To facilitate moisture and sediment removal, a drain plug should be provided at the lowest point (at the opposite end to the outlet pipe). © Fuel purchases should be arranged so that ‘Summer grade fuels are not held over and used in Winter. ‘© Refill the fuel tank via the filler tube which is located on the rear, left-hand side of the hood. If your tractor has an auxiliary fuel tank itis filled via the main tank filler tube RAPE SEED FUEL Asan alternative to diesel fuel, rape seed oil based fuel - Rape Methyl Ester (RME) is authorised for use in certain countries by New Holland The use of RME fuel has considerable environ- mental advantages over diesel, producing less harmful exhaust emissions and, being of a biodegradable nature, any waste will decompose naturally ‘The use of RME fuel may also be of an economic advantage in certain markets where diesel fuel is expensive and availability restricted.LUBRICATION AND MAINTEN NC oo 7 However, the following disadvantages may be experienced when using RME fuel: © A decrease in engine power, coupled with an increase in fuel consumption of approximately 10%, © Difficult starting in temperatures below - 6° C (21° F) due to the poor flow characteristics of the fuel at this temperature and below. If this condition exists, revert back to the use of diesel fuel. © An increase in unwanted deposits within the engine after long term useage may cause sticking piston rings, injector blockage and coke build-up on valve stems. IMPORTANT: Avoid spilling RME fuel onto the paintwork as damage can occur. In those countries where RME fuel has been approved by New Holland, engine warranty terms will not be affected provided the following guidelines are adhered to: New engines should be run on diesel fuel for the first 50 hours of operation © Drain offall diesel fuel and change the engine oil filter before changing over to RME fuel. © Use Only good quality engine oil meeting New Holland specification ESN-M2C121-B, C, Dor E or \ PLL. classification CD/SF.

Any excess ‘coolant expelled into the overflow bottle is drawn back into the radiator as the engine cools and the coolant contracts. If, however, the cooling system is overflled, the excess coolant may be discharged via the overflow tube and lost. With the engine cold, check that the coolant level is within the MIN and MAX marks moulded into the coolant bottle. If necessary, remove the filler cap (2) and top up with coolant solution. NOTE: The radiator pressure cap (1) should not bbe used for top up purposes. WARNING: The cooling system operates under pressure which is controlled by the ‘radiator pressure cap. It is dangerous to remove the cap while the system is hot. Allow the system 10 cook, thenuse a thick cloth and turn the radiator cap slowly to the first stop and allow the pressure 10 escape before fully removing the cap. Coolant should be kept off the skin.

Fig. 31. Battery ‘The battery has three major functions © To provide a source of current for starting, lighting and instrumentation © To help control the voltage in the electrical system. © To furnish current when the electrical demands exceed the alternator output. ‘The battery is constructed in such a manner that each cell contains positive and negative plates placed alternately next to each other. Each positive plate is separated from a negative plate by a non- ‘conducting porous separator. If any ofthe positive plates should make contact with negative plates within a cell, the cell will short circuit and suffer irreparable damage. All of the positive plates are ‘welded to a post strap, forming a positive terminal and all the negative plates. are welded to a similar post strap forming a negative terminal 16 Each positive plate is composed of a lead grid with lead peroxide pasted into the grid openings. The negative plates are composed of a lead grid with spongy lead pasted into the grid openings. The plates are submerged in a liquid electrolyte solution of diluted sulphuric acid, BATTERY See Figure 31 IMPORTANT: This operation applies only to batteries on tractors operating intropical climates. Tractors operating in temperate climates should have the battery electrolyte level checked every 300 hours. See operation 32. ‘The battery is mounted on a hinged tray which may be swung out for improved access. To release the battery tray, press down and turn the springloaded retaining catch, NOTE: If your tractor has an auxiliary battery, it should also be checked at this service. SERVICING THE BATTERY When servicing a battery the following steps should be observed. 1. Maintain the electrolyte to the recommended level which is generally approximately 0-25 in. (5 mm) above the plates, otherwise the acid will reach ahigh concentration that will damage the separators and impair the performance of the plates. 2. Use only distilled water for topping up. 3. Always keep the battery at least three quarters charged otherwise the plates will become sulphated and loss of efficiency will result with possible damage from freezing at low temperatures. 4, Avoid overcharging the battery as excessive charging will create high internal heat that willLUBRICATION AND MAINTENANC, SS 7 expand and warp the plates. Distortion of the battery case and displacement of the sealing compound may also result. 5. When fast charging ensure the battery tem- perature does not exceed 65°C (140°F) 6. Do not add sulphuric acid to a cell unless the electrolyte has been lost through spilling. Before replenishing ensure the solution is at the correct specific gravity. A slow charge is the only method to be employed to fully charge a battery. A high rate charger can be used to quickly boost the battery capacity but this must be followed by a slow charge rate to bring the battery to full capacity WET CHARGED BATTERIES IMPORTANT: Wet charged batteries must not be allowed to stand in an willed state after the time period stamped on the battery (approximately one year) has expired. Dry charged batteries must be prepared for service as follows: 1. Remove the battery cell vent plugs. 2. Fill each cell to the recommended level with electrolyte of the correct specific gravity, see «Specifications»-Chapter 7. NOTE: The electrolyte must be diluted sulphuric acid preferably at a temperature of 21°-32°C (70"- 90°F). 3. After filling, allow the battery to stand for 15 ‘minutes then re-check the electrolyte level and top- up if necessary. 4, Charge the battery for four hours at arate of S~ 8 amperes, in accordance with the leaflet supplied with the battery, and check all cells are gassing freely. Install the battery cell vent plugs. Ifnecessary, top up with distilled or demineralised water until the level is correct. Do not overfill. Never use tap water or water from a rain barrel or other source. To prevent the formation of verdigris (corrosion) the terminals should be cleaned and greased with petroleum jelly (Vaseline or similar). EVERY 300 HOURS carry out the preceding. checks plus the following: BATTERY Operation 33 - Battery Electrolyte Level IMPORTANT. This operation applies only to batteries on tractors operating in temperate climates. Tractors operating in tropical climates should have the battery electrolyte level checked every 50 hours. Check and adjust the electrolyte level and clean and grease the battery terminals, exactly as described in operation 32. ENGINE OIL AND FILTER IMPORTANT. Operations 34 and 35 depict the normal 300 hour engine oil and filter change period. Cold Temperature Operation Engines operating in temperatures below - 12° C (10° F) or in arduous'conditions should have the oil changed every 150 hours of operation. (The oil ‘filter need only be changed at the normal 300 hour service interval) Diesel Fuel Sulphur Content Insome countries, locally available diesel may have high sulphur content, in which case he oil change period should be adjusted, as follows: ‘© Sulphur content between 0.5 and 1.0 - change engine oil every 150 hours. 7LUBRICATION AND MAINTENANCE B 300 HOUR SERVICE (continued) (© Sulphur content between 1.0 and 1.3% - chang engine oil every 75 hours.

After soaking, agitate the element in the water, taking care not to allow dirty water outside the clement to splash over to the inside. IMPORTANT.-Never use fuel oil, petrol, solvent ‘orwater hotter than the hand can stand, otherwise the element may be damaged. Rinse theelement in clean, running water, allowing, the water to run from the inside of the element through to the outside. If a hose is used, do not use high pressure. A gentle trickle of water is sufficient and will ensure that the element is not ruptured. IMPORTANT: Do not attempt to dry the element with heat or compressed air and do not install until thoroughly dry as it may rupture. It is recom- ‘mended that a new element is installed at this service and the washed element put aside for installation at a subsequent service.
