Most people don't realize that tractors have keys, but they do! Just like any other vehicle, a tractor needs a key to start. However, not all tractor keys are the same. In fact, there are two different types of keys used for tractors: an ignition key and a starter key.
The ignition key is used to start the engine while the starter key is used to engage the starter motor. The starter motor is what turns over the engine to start it. Most newer model tractors will have only one key that serves both purposes. However, older model tractors may have two separate keys for these functions.
So, if you're wondering whether all tractors use the same key, the answer is no - there are actually two different types of keys used for tractors!
