Hello I have a Deutz 8005 tractor and I was wondering what volt is my starter motor is 12 or 24 volts. I forgot haven't started the tractor in along time.

How are the batteries hooked up ?
in series or parallel ?

it does not have a battery in it, so I'm not sure.

(quoted from post at 14:02:47 06/12/15) it does not have a battery in it, so I'm not sure.

Any short battery cables laying around the two main cables?

Not familiar with Deutz, but shouldn't be too hard to determine the voltage. It will either be a straight
12v, or 24v, OR a "12v run, 24v start" system.

If it is a straight 12v or 24v, the battery wiring will be simple, positive cable, ground cable, a double
ended cable connecting the batteries. You will be able to find the voltage on some accessory, like a tag on
the alternator, starter, a lamp, instrument, etc.

If the voltage is 12v, it could have had 2 6v batteries series together, 2 12v batteries parallel, or one
big 12v battery.

If it is 24v, it would have had 2 12v batteries in series.

If it is a "12v run, 24v start" system, the cable connections to the batteries will be a complex assortment
of cables going to relays, solenoids, parts unknown... A real nightmare to sort out! If it is this type
system, don't guess! Find a wiring diagram or someone who knows for sure how it is wired.
