I'm familiar some what with all types of tractors equipment how it runs and operations but I'm not sure how to identify the proper starting procedure nor any of the identification for the levers or anything most of it's worn I don't have a service manual or owner's manual I acquired the tractor after repairs have been made to the ignition brand new ignition switch starter and starter solenoid brand new but there looks like there's different wiring going to a transmitter box that has some sort of antenna to it and extra fuse box panel it seems to not be original tractor did start and run a couple odd times any help would be much appreciated

around these parts the B21 was a common machine at the rental shops. Often the ignition systems were hacked up / modified to include GPS tracking. When taken out of service GPS removed and installed on the next unit. Can't tell if this is your case but a guess anyways.

FYI: The B21 is a TLB (Tractor, Loader, Backhoe)
It is not an excavator. ;)

I have 2 B21 here if you want pictures of anything. Starting procedure is simply depress the clutch pedal and turn key to start it. You may need a few seconds of glow plug when its cold which you will see the light come on the dash just when turning the key just before the start position. Just hold it there for a few seconds if you need to. As far as levers down by right foot is 2wd/4wd, right fender is 3 point lever and throttle, down by left foot is pto lever, left fender is gear selector, and right side just under seat is 3 point/backhoe selector

If your getting fuel to the top of each injector and engine is turning over the only other electric piece in play is the glow plugs. It is all mechanical outside of starter, fuel shutoff solenoid and glow plugs. Im gonna send you a message with my number id be happy to help on the phone
