Confusing.... did you mean "turning over"? I assume this happens without proper safety switch protocols (driver in seat, pto off, brake depressed, etc...)
Unable to access manuals to see what you have besides knowing you have alternator from TractorData......so my GUESS is your starter solenoid is either stuck or hot (live). If hot, possibly a short in wiring or on key switch connections. Or maybe a bad key switch (internal) . You should be able to trace problem with meter without battery connected.
