The following is from the operators manual for my B1750HST:
'Do not operate until the engine is well warmed up. If operation is attempted while the engine is still cold, the hydraulic mechanism will not properly function and its service life will be shortened.'
This is in the postion control section (lift the 3 point). I park the tractor in a garage attached to the house and don't want to run it there for long so I manually lift and chock the 3 point to raise the belly mower and push it outside to warm up.
My father in law has always just started his up, immediately raised the 3 point and backed out of the barn.
What do you guys think? Am I being overly cautious?
