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 old oil drain completely. Replace the drain plug, remove the oil filter, and install a new one. Finally, add new oil through the oil filler cap.
If your tractor won't start, check the battery connections for corrosion and ensure they are tight. Make sure the battery is charged. Examine the fuel level and ensure the fuel shut-off valve is open. Check the spark plug and replace it if necessary. If issues persist, consult the user manual or a professional mechanic.
Uneven cutting can be caused by a dull blade, improper deck leveling, or tire pressure discrepancies. Sharpen or replace the mower blades, adjust the deck level according to the manual, and make sure all tires are inflated to the recommended pressure.
To store your tractor, clean it thoroughly and perform all necessary maintenance tasks. Drain the fuel or add a fuel stabilizer. Remove the battery and store it in a cool, dry place. Cover the tractor with a tarp to protect it from dust and moisture.
Regular maintenance should be performed according to the schedule in the user manual. Generally, check the engine oil and air filter every 25 hours of operation, and conduct a full service every 100 hours, including oil change, filter replacement, and inspection of belts and blades.
Use clean, fresh, unleaded gasoline with a minimum octane rating of 87. Avoid using gasoline with more than 10% ethanol to prevent damage to the engine components.
To adjust the cutting height, locate the height adjustment lever or knob on the tractor. Move it to the desired position, ensuring that the deck is level when making adjustments. Refer to the manual for specific instructions on your model.
Check the transmission fluid level and top it up if necessary. Inspect the drive belt for wear or damage and replace it if needed. Ensure that all linkage and cables are properly connected. If problems persist, consult a professional technician.
To maintain the battery, keep the terminals clean and free of corrosion. Charge the battery regularly, especially if the tractor is not used often. During winter storage, remove the battery and store it in a dry place. Check the electrolyte level if applicable.
Always read the operator's manual before use. Wear appropriate safety gear and ensure all safety devices are operational. Do not operate the tractor on steep slopes or unstable terrain. Keep hands and feet away from moving parts and never allow passengers.
