If the tractor won't start, check the battery connections, ensure the fuel tank is filled, verify the spark plugs are functioning, and check the fuse. If issues persist, consult the manual or a professional technician.
The oil should be changed after the first 5 hours of use, and then every 50 hours or annually, whichever comes first. Always use the recommended oil type specified in the manual.

Ensure the tire pressure is even on all sides, check that the mower deck is level, and inspect the blades for damage or dullness. Sharpen or replace blades if necessary.
Excessive vibration can be caused by unbalanced or damaged blades, loose components, or debris lodged in the mower deck. Inspect and address these issues to resolve the vibration.
Keep the battery terminals clean and free of corrosion, ensure it is properly charged, and store the tractor in a cool, dry place when not in use for extended periods. Consider using a trickle charger during off-season storage.
Clean the tractor thoroughly, remove any grass or debris, change the oil, remove the battery, and store it in a cool, dry place. Cover the tractor to protect it from dust and moisture.

Check the drive belt for wear or damage, inspect the transmission fluid level, and ensure the linkage is properly adjusted. If issues continue, consult a professional technician.
