Rangel - Safety first: Put on safety glasses before proceeding!

While the chances are vanishingly small, there still exists a remote possibility of scattering sparks or the battery rupturing whenever you are working around batteries and starters!!

Now that we've got safety covered, if you have jumper cables I’d proceed this:

Disconnect the UNGROUNDED battery cable at both the battery and the starter switch. (Leave the GROUNDED cable attached to both the battery and the tractor frame.)

Have an assistant hold one end of the jumper cable firmly on the copper contact button on the starter. Now clamp the other end of the jumper cable to the battery post - expect a healthy spark when you make the connection! If the starter doesn’t spin the instant you make contact, disconnect the jumper at the battery.

Good luck!!
