Been there with a 656H. There were 2 frost plug heaters installed. They were evenly spaced along the motor. However, being only about 550 watts, they took all night to warm up the 656 for morning chores, and sometimes more. Not convenient when you have a schedule to adhear to. Admittedly, a 656 Hydro is a b--ch to start, even with a transmission heater. Thus the 1500 watter. Had a tank heater on the SW-6TA in the fifties. Made starting sssssoooooo much more easy. At the same time, the JD dealer sold us a 420W that had a lower hose heater . Had to keep it plugged all the time. If you plugged it in when it was warm it would keep the motor warm, but was not good enough to warm it from -30 degrees in a few hours. I do not remember why we did not install a tank heater on it. (must be because it was green...). QR
