I have a Zetor 4340 with a cab. I bought a small generator to heat the block because I don't have electric yet out at the farm. Anyone else ever done this? How long should it take to heat up? I have a 1000 watt small generator. The block said 400w in the manual. It also said plug to a grounded outlet but my repair man said I should be fine. Very green with this tractor so any comments would help.
Thanks
 

What country are you in that you need to heat the block? it must be some place worst than -10c if you have to do this.
 
In the northern US and Canada a block heater is pretty much expected to come standard on new equipmemt by the customer. Scandinavia too. We allways got our stuff running up to -12 and if we couldnt, it was due to frozen summer fuel or poor batteries. Never used starting ether.
