Hey guys, I've done some online searching
and can't find much on this topic. And I
have talked to 3 different mechanics and
gotten mixed answers. So hoping to get a
firm yes or no from someone.
My question is, will my Ford 8970 shut
itself off in a situation where it loses
oil pressure or over heats the coolant? I
am going to be pulling a relift pump with
the tractor this fall for about 12 days
straight unattended, aside from me checking
it 4 or 5 times a day.
And I don't want to burn the tractor up if
it throws a fan belt or something, if the
tractor won't shut itself off, has anyone
ever put a Murphy setup on one?
Thank you in advance!
 
A firm yes, it will, unless the override switch next to the key is on. It will also shut down if the tranny pressure is low, or the oil gets too hot. This feature is described in detail in the operator's manual.
