1. Make sure your battery posts and connectors are clean. Free of acid & oxidation.

If that doesn't work then.....-

2. Check for a draw on the battery ( something staying on like a trunk light). A good test is to buy a test light. Then disconnect your negative on the battery and put the test light in series. If the light comes on go to the fuse box and start pulling fuses until the light goes out. Then you know where the problem is.

What is wrong with kohler tractor when started in the morning ran most of the day and tried to restart in the evening and cannot jump start it with charger but can start with car?

Typically a charger is not meant ot "jump start" and engine. It provides a slow, regulated charge to the battery. A car battery or fully charged battery will typically provide enough pwoer to jump start your tractor. I recommend charging your battery for a number of hours (or overnight) till completely recharged. If the tractor will no start without a jump, your battery may be in need of replacement.
