To change the oil, first warm up the engine. Turn off the engine and remove the oil drain plug, allowing the oil to completely drain into a pan. Replace the drain plug and remove the oil filter. Install a new filter and fill the engine with the recommended oil type and quantity. Check for leaks and proper oil level.

What should I do if my tractor won't start?

If your tractor won't start, check the battery connections for corrosion or looseness. Ensure that the battery is charged. Verify that the fuel is fresh and the fuel filter is not clogged. Check the spark plugs for wear or fouling and replace if necessary.

How can I troubleshoot uneven cutting on my mower deck?

Uneven cutting may be due to improperly inflated tires, a bent blade, or a misaligned deck. Check tire pressure first, then inspect the blades for damage. Finally, adjust the deck level according to the manual instructions.

What is the regular maintenance schedule for my tractor?

Regular maintenance includes checking the oil level before each use, replacing the oil and oil filter every 50 hours, inspecting the air filter every 25 hours, and sharpening or replacing blades as needed. Lubricate all moving parts and check the tire pressure regularly.
