310-8 Wiring

Recommended Posts

Jed2155

I picked up a 1989 310-8 with the Magnum yesterday that had a battery meltdown/fire at some point. Who knows what happened. Most of the wires in that area and behind dash are melted beyond use. The pto switch and fuse block area all a mess. The tractor otherwise looks good. I have a new ignition switch for a 310. Question is this: can someone point me to or draw a simple wire diagram to get the engine to start/run to check this thing out? I have some wire to run between switch and solienod. And from rectifier on engine to where ever.  I have new large cables to hook to new battery. I realize would have no safety interlocks but just want to see what I have with tractor running. Thanks

Welcome to the forum

Make sure your ignition switch has one terminal identified with an M for magneto ignition.

:WRS:   This basic diagram will work for testing the engine. You wouldn't want to use it long term because there are no safety switches in it.

@Jed2155 Once you get to rewiring including safety switches , let me know I have a few new switches that I will sell you below  retail cost. I decided to run my 310-8 without switches.
