Ensure the parking brake is engaged and the PTO lever is in the "OFF" position. Insert the key into the ignition and turn it to the "START" position until the engine starts.
Check the battery to ensure it is charged, inspect the spark plug for wear or damage, and ensure there is sufficient fuel in the tank. Also, make sure the safety switches are not engaged.
It is recommended to change the oil every 50 hours of operation or at the beginning of each season, whichever comes first.
Use SAE 30 oil for temperatures above 32°F and SAE 5W-30 for temperatures below 32°F. Always check the owner's manual for specific recommendations.
Clean the tractor thoroughly, change the oil, stabilize the fuel, and store it in a dry place. Disconnect the battery to prevent drainage.
Uneven cutting can result from unbalanced blades, incorrect tire pressure, or uneven deck leveling. Check and adjust these components as necessary.
Locate the height adjustment lever on the tractor and move it to the desired position. Ensure that the deck is level for a uniform cut.
Excessive vibration can be caused by unbalanced blades, loose components, or engine issues. Inspect the blades and tighten any loose parts.
Check the PTO switch for faults, ensure the belt is intact and properly tensioned, and inspect the electrical connections to the clutch.
Check the oil level, inspect the blades for sharpness and damage, ensure the tires are properly inflated, and confirm that all safety features are functioning.
