Gas tractors have one 12V battery.
Diesel tractors should have two 6V batteries, hooked + to - with a short battery cable, to make 12V. Once connected, it works exactly the same as a single 12V battery. Treat it like a single 12V battery.
For charging and jumping, you hook the red clamp to the + on the first battery, and hook the black clamp to the - on the second battery. You do NOT connect anything to the short cable at all.
Use the *12V* boost setting.
That is what I figured. They were doing this way back on the MD's.
With that said I could confuse the subject. :roll: You can take two 12 volt batteries and hook them + to + and - to - for twice the cranking amps. IDK what the battery boxes look like on the 460/560, but you can do it on the big Deeres pretty easy ie4440. It wouldn't really work on something like a 4020 with the long skinny 6 volt boxes.
