Heater blankets for the batteries & I'll bet you'll find some sort of
block heater too. Needed in cold weather. I knew a guy in MN who
never used his diesel tractor in the winter, just too hard to start.
He had a gas tractor for the winter.
Good luck with the owners manual from Ford, I found one on line for
my Vanagon, I bought one off E-bay for my daughters Saturn and
sometimes you can find them at wrecking yards.
