Actually, assuming the mid tie point of the batteries is grounded to frame as shown on the diagam, IF YOU ATTACH EITHER OF THOSE BIG CABLES (one to solenoid other to starter) TO FRAME GROUND SOMETHING WILL INDEED GO POOF as youre placing a 12 volt battery across a dead short. Often it will be that small bonding wire to frame that will burn open
YES the starter is isolated from ground, its windings are between its 2 big stud/terminals AND ARE NOT BONDED TO CASE FRAME as so on a typical 12 volt starter where the starter has one stud and its case frame is the other terminal
Think about it.....ONE end of a battery is tied to case/frame there at the mid point as the drawing shows.......Soooooooo if you also atatched the other end of that battery to frame WHY DO YOU THINK IT WILL NOTTTTTTTT CAUSE A SHORT/POOF. YES the starter windings are isolated from case BUT TRUST ME IF YOU TOUCHED EITHER OF THOSE BIG CABLES TO CASE FRAME SPARKS WILL FLYYYYYYYYYYYY.....
Again this subject is just too complicated to explain here on the net in a few paragraphs and yall can wire as you like but if that mid tied point is correctly bonded as Deere did which is correct PLEASE DO NOT TOUCH EITHER OF THE 2 BIG CABLES TO FRAME FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY. If the mid tie point isnt correct and isnt grounded or has burned open she will NOT go poof
Yall take care now n be safe and wire them as you please I just dont want anyone to get hurt by dead shorting a battery based on something read here BETTER SAFE THEN SORRY I SAY

This is my first (in case my wife reads this, "FIRST") tractor and it has been a learning experience. After considerable advise and assistance from local tractor nuts and the forums of Yesterday�s Tractors, I had finally got it running pretty well. I have tuned it up, overhauled the carburetor, installed a borrowed, rebuilt magneto, installed a new Power-Trol, patched the radiator, installed new front wheels a
