To change the oil, first, run the engine for a few minutes to warm it up. Shut off the engine and remove the key. Place an oil pan under the engine, remove the oil drain plug, and let the oil drain completely. Replace the drain plug and fill the engine with new oil as specified in the owner's manual.
Use clean, fresh, unleaded gasoline with a minimum octane rating of 87. Avoid using gasoline with more than 10% ethanol content to prevent engine damage.
Check the battery connections for corrosion and ensure they are tight. Verify the fuel level and that the fuel valve is open. Inspect the spark plug for wear or damage, and replace if necessary. Ensure the choke is in the correct position for starting.
Follow the maintenance schedule outlined in the owner's manual, which includes regular oil changes, air filter checks, spark plug inspections, and blade sharpening. Perform a thorough inspection before each use and annually for more in-depth maintenance.
Clean the tractor thoroughly and check for any needed repairs. Drain the fuel or add a fuel stabilizer. Change the oil and remove the battery to store it separately in a cool, dry place. Cover the tractor to protect it from dust and moisture.
Locate the cutting height adjustment lever on the mower deck. Move the lever to the desired position to raise or lower the cutting height. Refer to the manual for specific height settings and adjustments.
Check the PTO (Power Take-Off) switch and ensure it is in the engage position. Inspect the drive belt for wear or damage and replace if necessary. Verify that the battery is fully charged and that all electrical connections are secure.
Locate the air filter housing, remove the cover, and take out the old air filter. Clean any debris from the housing and insert the new air filter. Replace the cover securely. Refer to the manual for specific instructions and filter specifications.
Check the owner's manual for the recommended tire pressure, typically around 10-14 psi for the front tires and 8-12 psi for the rear tires. Use a tire gauge to ensure proper inflation for optimal performance and safety.
For better traction on wet grass, consider using tire chains or weights. Ensure the tires are properly inflated and replace them if the tread is worn. Adjust your mowing pattern and speed to reduce slippage.
