"PREHEATING" position to allow the
glow lamp to redden.
6. Turn the key to the "STARTING"
position and the engine should start.
Release the key immediately when the
engine starts.

and charge lamp are off. If the lamps
are still on, immediately stop the
engine, and determine the cause.
(See "CHECKS DURING OPERATION" in
"OPERATING THE ENGINE" section.)
A If the oil pressure lamp should be still on, immediately
stop the engine and check;
- if there is enough engine oil.
- if the engine oil has dirt in it.
- if the wiring is faulty.
8. Warm up the engine at medium speed
without load.
A If the glow lamp should redden too quickly or too
slowly, immediately ask your KUBOTA dealer to
check and repair it.
A If the engine does not catch or start at 10 seconds
after the starter switch is set at "STARTING" position,
wait for another 30 seconds and then begin the engine
starting sequence again. Do not allow the starter

engine is very cold, start it in the following manner:
Take steps (1) through (4) left.
5. Turn the key to the "PREHEATING"
position and keep it there for a certain
period mentioned below.
A Shown below are the standard preheating times for
various temperatures. This operation, however, is not
required, when the engine is warmed up.

A In case of installing standard glow lamp, glow lamp
goes off after about 6 seconds, when the starter
switch key is turned to the "PREHEATING" position.
However if necessary, keep the starter switch key at
the "PREHEATING"
according to the left recommendation.
6. Turn the key to the "STARTING"
position and the engine should start.
(If the engine fails to start after 10 seconds, turn off
the key for 5 to 30 seconds. Then repeat steps (5)
and (6).)
A Do not allow the starter motor to run continuously for
more than 20 seconds.
A Be sure to warm up the engine, not only in winter, but
also in warmer seasons. An insufficiently warmed-up
engine can shorten its service life.
A When there is fear of temperature dropping below
-15 C (5 F) detach the battery from the machine, and
keep it indoors in a safe area, to be reinstalled just
before the next operation.
