To check the oil level, ensure the tractor is on a level surface. Locate the oil dipstick, remove it, wipe it clean, reinsert it fully, and then remove it again to check the oil level on the marked indicators.
Conduct regular maintenance checks every 25 hours of use, including oil changes, air filter cleaning, and blade sharpening. Refer to the user manual for a detailed schedule.
Ensure the battery is charged, the fuel tank is filled with fresh gasoline, and the spark plug is clean and properly connected. Check safety switches and wiring for faults.
Disconnect the spark plug for safety, lift the mower deck, and use a wrench to remove the blade bolts. Replace with new blades, ensuring they are properly aligned and securely fastened.
Locate the cutting height adjustment lever on the side of the mower. Move the lever to the desired position to achieve the preferred grass height.
Check for unbalanced or damaged blades, worn drive belts, or debris lodged in the mower deck. Tighten any loose components and replace damaged parts as necessary.
Locate the air filter cover, remove it, and take out the old air filter. Insert a new filter, ensuring it is seated correctly, and replace the cover securely.
Use fresh, clean, unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 87 or higher. Avoid using ethanol blends higher than E10.
Ensure regular maintenance, such as changing the oil and air filters, keep the tires properly inflated, and avoid excessive idling. Mow under optimal conditions to reduce engine load.
Regularly check oil levels, inspect and clean the air filter, examine the spark plug, and check tire pressure. Also, inspect blades and belts for wear and replace as necessary.
