If the tractor does not start, check the battery connections to ensure they are clean and tight. Verify that there is fuel in the tank and that the fuel valve is open. Also, make sure the spark plug is in good condition and properly connected.

How often should I change the air filter?

The air filter should be inspected before each use and replaced at least once per season or every 25 hours of operation. If operating in dusty conditions, it may require more frequent replacement.

What should I do if the mower deck is not engaging?

If the mower deck does not engage, check the PTO cable and connections for any damage or disconnection. Ensure the PTO switch is in good working condition. Inspect the belt for wear or damage as well.

How do I check and maintain tire pressure?

To check and maintain tire pressure, use a tire gauge to measure the pressure and compare it with the recommended PSI found in the owner’s manual. Inflate the tires as needed to maintain even pressure across all tires for optimal performance.
