I have the original operators manual for my Ford 4400, and the book includes: 3400, 3500, 4400, and 4500. When you flip to the "Starting Your Tractor" section, there is a special "Cold Weather Starting" section. In it, it shows a picture of a Ether can, up side down in a bracket by the operator, it says: Ether can assembly is an option from factory for cold weather starting, steps: 1 Set hand throttle to 1/3 2 Turn key to engage starter 3 While engine is spinning, push Ether release for 1/2 a second every 4 seconds until engine starts. 4 Allow extra warm up time for colder conditions.
