To perform routine maintenance, regularly check and replace the oil, inspect the air filter, lubricate moving parts, and ensure tire pressure is correct. Refer to the manual for specific intervals and procedures.
Check the battery connections for corrosion, ensure the fuel tank is filled, inspect the spark plugs, and verify that the PTO switch is disengaged. Consult the manual for further troubleshooting steps.
Ensure the mower deck is level, check the sharpness of the blades, and inspect for any debris buildup underneath the deck. Adjust the tire pressure if necessary.
To change the oil, run the engine briefly to warm it up, then turn it off and remove the oil drain plug. Allow the old oil to drain completely, replace the plug, and fill with new oil as specified in the manual.
Use the height adjustment lever located near the operator's seat to set the desired cutting height. Refer to the manual for specific height settings and adjustments.
Clean the tractor thoroughly, change the oil, add a fuel stabilizer, disconnect the battery, and store it in a dry place. Cover the tractor to protect it from dust and debris.
Regularly clean the battery terminals, check the fluid levels if applicable, and ensure the battery is charged. If storing for an extended period, disconnect or use a trickle charger.
Stop the tractor immediately, check for coolant leaks, ensure the radiator is not clogged, and verify that the cooling fan is operational. Allow the engine to cool before further inspection.
Locate the air filter housing, remove the cover, and take out the old filter. Insert a new filter, ensuring it is seated properly, and replace the cover securely.
Uneven grass cutting, torn grass tips, and the need for multiple passes over the same area indicate dull blades. Sharpen the blades regularly for optimal performance.
