To change the oil, first run the engine for a few minutes to warm it up, then turn it off. Remove the drain plug and let the old oil drain completely. Replace the drain plug and refill with the recommended oil type and quantity.
Use unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 87 or higher. Avoid using ethanol blends higher than 10%.
Check the air filter every 25 hours of operation and replace it if it appears dirty or damaged. Generally, replace it every 100 hours or annually, whichever comes first.
Maintain the front tires at 14 PSI and the rear tires at 10 PSI for optimal performance and safety.
Check the battery connections for corrosion and tightness, ensure the fuel tank has clean fuel, check the spark plug, and inspect the air filter. If problems persist, consult the manual or a professional technician.
Remove the mower deck and securely position it. Use a blade sharpener or a file to sharpen the blades, maintaining the original angle. Balance the blades before reinstalling them.
Locate the transmission fluid reservoir, remove the dipstick, and wipe it clean. Reinsert and remove the dipstick to check the level. Add the recommended fluid if necessary, ensuring not to overfill.
Perform regular maintenance every 25 hours, including checking the oil, air filter, and tire pressure. Conduct a thorough inspection and service every 100 hours or annually, whichever comes first.
Clean the tractor thoroughly, change the oil, add a fuel stabilizer, and remove the battery. Store the battery in a cool, dry place and keep the tractor in a covered area to protect it from harsh weather.
Immediately shut off the engine and allow it to cool. Check for obstructions in the air intake and cooling fins. Ensure the radiator is clean and the coolant level is adequate. If the issue persists, consult a professional.
