To start the tractor, ensure the parking brake is engaged, the PTO switch is in the 'off' position, and the throttle lever is set to 'choke'. Turn the ignition key to the 'start' position until the engine starts, then release it to the 'run' position.
Check the fuel level, battery charge, and spark plug connections. Ensure the throttle is correctly set and the PTO switch is off. If the problem persists, consult the user manual or a professional technician.
Regularly inspect the mower blades for damage and sharpness. Sharpen or replace them as needed. Always disconnect the spark plug before performing maintenance to ensure safety.
Change the oil after the first 5 hours of use and then every 50 hours or annually, whichever comes first. Use the recommended oil type as specified in the user manual.
Remove the air filter cover and take out the filter. If it's a foam filter, wash it with warm soapy water, rinse, dry, and apply a light coat of engine oil before reinstalling. Replace paper filters if they appear dirty.
Excessive vibration may be caused by unbalanced blades, loose parts, or damaged belts. Inspect these components and tighten or replace as necessary.
Check the tire pressure, deck level, and blade sharpness. Adjust the deck height settings and ensure the blades are properly aligned and sharp.
Ensure that the transmission belt is intact and properly tensioned. Check the linkage for any obstructions or damages. Consult the service manual for further troubleshooting steps.
Clean the tractor thoroughly, change the oil, and stabilize the fuel. Disconnect the battery and store it in a cool, dry place. Cover the tractor to protect it from dust and moisture.
Refer to the user manual for specific tire pressure recommendations, typically around 10 psi for the front tires and 14 psi for the rear tires. Adjust according to load and terrain conditions.
