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.
If the tractor had a battery in it when you were jumping it, there is a chance that the battery is bad. Try unhooking the tractors battery and trying again. Hook your jumper cables to the battery cables themselves without being attached to the battery. If it runs then just replace the battery. A battery with a short in it will keep the mower from charging and could cause it to die. If there was no battery in the tractor when you were jumping it, then the tractor is not charging and will have to be diagnosed as to what the problem is.
For a 16 hp lawn tractor, a common battery size is a Group U1 or Group U1R, which typically has a capacity of around 12 volts and 300-400 CCA (cold cranking amps). It's important to check the owner's manual or the specifications label on the tractor for the exact size and requirements, as battery needs can vary by model. Additionally, ensure that the battery terminals match the tractor's configuration for proper installation.
The polarity of a battery on a Massey Ferguson 165 tractor is typically negative ground. This means that the negative terminal of the battery is connected to the tractor's chassis, while the positive terminal is connected to the electrical system. It's essential to ensure proper connections to avoid electrical issues when working with the battery. Always consult the owner's manual for specific details related to your model.
If it is still in the tractor hooked up unhook it and try charging it if it still won't charge the battery is probably bad. If it does charge out of the tractor you might have a short in your wiring on the tractor. Hope this helps.
