To start the tractor, ensure that the parking brake is engaged and the PTO switch is off. Set the throttle to the 'fast' position, insert the key, and turn it to the 'start' position. Release the key to the 'run' position once the engine starts.
Check the fuel level and ensure that there is fresh fuel. Inspect the spark plug for wear and clean or replace it if necessary. Verify that the battery is charged and the connections are secure.
It's recommended to change the oil every 50 hours of operation or at least once per season, whichever comes first. Always use oil that meets the manufacturer's specifications.
Regularly sharpen the blades and ensure they are balanced. Clean the underside of the mower deck to avoid grass build-up. Adjust the deck height according to the manufacturer's guidelines for optimal performance.
Check the transmission oil level and top it off if necessary. Inspect the drive belt for wear and replace it if it's damaged or worn out. Ensure that the belt tension is correctly adjusted.
Inspect the air filter every 25 hours of operation. Clean it by tapping the filter gently to remove dirt and debris. Replace the air filter if it's excessively dirty or damaged.
Check the tire pressure to ensure it's equal on both sides. Level the mower deck according to the manual's instructions. Inspect the blades for damage or dullness and sharpen or replace them if needed.
Clean the tractor thoroughly to remove dirt and debris. Change the oil and top off the fuel tank with a stabilizer added. Store the tractor in a dry, sheltered location and disconnect the battery to prevent drainage.
Regularly clean the battery terminals and apply a protective coating to prevent corrosion. Keep the battery charged, especially during long periods of inactivity. Avoid using the battery for non-essential electrical loads when the engine is off.
Check for loose or damaged parts, especially on the mower deck and blades. Ensure the blades are balanced and properly secured. Inspect the tires for proper inflation and even wear.
