How do you start a john deere tractor?
Larger machines (agricultural use) are started by turning the ignition key, then setting the engine to 1200 rpm and letting it idle (no load) for about two minutes (four if cold outside) to warm up the engine (turbocharger needs the heat). You do not need to hold in the clutch or breaks. They will not start if the driver is not sitting on the seat, the PTO is on or if it is in gear.
