To start the Murray 38711x73B tractor, ensure it is in neutral, engage the parking brake, insert the key into the ignition, and turn it to the start position. Release the key once the engine starts.
The recommended oil for the Murray 38711x73B tractor is SAE 30 for temperatures above 32°F (0°C). For colder temperatures, use SAE 5W-30.
It is recommended to change the oil after the first 5 hours of use and then every 50 hours of operation or annually, whichever comes first.
If the tractor won't start, check the battery connections, ensure the fuel tank has gasoline, and verify the spark plug is in good condition. Also, make sure the safety features like the seat switch are engaged properly.
To level the mowing deck, park the tractor on a flat surface, adjust the deck lift links on both sides, and ensure the blade tips are the same height from the ground.
To replace the blades, disconnect the spark plug, lower the deck, remove the blade bolt, and replace the old blade with a new one. Ensure the blade is properly aligned and securely fastened.
Check if the deck is level, ensure the blades are sharp and balanced, and verify the tire pressure is equal on all wheels. Adjust as necessary to achieve even cutting.
Clean the tractor thoroughly, change the oil, add fuel stabilizer to the gas tank, inflate tires to the recommended pressure, and store the battery in a cool, dry place. Cover the tractor to protect it from dust and moisture.
To improve traction, consider using tire chains, reducing tire pressure for better grip, and adding weight to the rear of the tractor for better balance.
The recommended tire pressure for the Murray 38711x73B is 10 PSI for the front tires and 14 PSI for the rear tires. Always check the manufacturer's guidelines for specific recommendations.
