    • 2). Confirm that the gear shift to the left of the driver seat is in neutral prior to mounting the Farmall 400. Do likewise with the hydraulic and power take-off controls.

    • 3). Check to see if the dashboard has a fuel control switch. Some versions of the 400 are started with gasoline, then transfer to diesel when up and running.

    • 4). Turn the ignition key while the vehicle is at full choke, easing off after 10 to 15 seconds. Let the tractor run a minute or two, then, if applicable, switch over to diesel fuel. Shift conservatively into forward gears and you are off.
