My two 3545's & two 3011's have the decompression levers fitted but no cable's to operate them from the drivers seat I think all UK destined tractors lacked the operation cables.

What's a decomppresion lever Why did they need it? zetors always start on the first engine rotation. A decompression lever would be useless

i have been told the decompression levers were never fitted in the uk. why they were fitted remains a mystery to me possibly because the czech republic is very snowy and the engines were slightly stiff out there but the decompression lever was a right pain it was a largeish t lever coming out the bottom of the dash which apparently you hit your knee on all the time???

ahh!! I know now it was fitted to the 3045 model??? was it a big lever sticking up from the gearbox? I have always wondered what that lever was! (But maybey it was the gear lever )

I must tell you about my faders 3011 it not only had the decomp it also had a handcrank and anyone who tried to crank upp dieselengine by hand will tell you the to tings go togeter,of corse if the battery is only low on power the decomp can save you from using the handcrank all togeter.
