Cleaning the Engine And Deck

Any fuel or oil spilled on the machine should be wiped

off promptly.

Do NOT allow debris to accumulate around the engine

air intake screen and cooling fins. Every 100 hours of

operation, check and clean the cooling fins and inside

of engine shrouds to remove grass, chaff of dirt

clogging the cooling system. Remove the fan housing

and intake screen to clean the engine.

Do NOT allow debris to accumulate around or on any

other part of the machine, especially the belts and

pulleys.

IMPORTANT:

The use of a pressure washer or garden

hose to clean your tractor is NOT recommended. It may

cause damage to electrical components, spindles,

pulleys, bearings or the engine. The use of water will

result in a shortened life of the tractor and reduce its

serviceability.

Lubrication

WARNING:

Before lubricating, repairing, or

inspecting, always disengage PTO, set

parking brake, stop engine and remove key to

prevent unintended starting.

Engine

Refer to Engine on page 19 for instruction regarding all

engine-related lubrication.

Grease fittings can be found on the top of each deck

grease, or an equivalent No. 2 multi-purpose lithium

grease, after every 10 hours of operation. Using a

grease gun, apply two strokes (minimum) or sufficient

grease to flush old grease and dirt out of the spindle

shaft.
