CLEANING
• Clean engine, battery, seat, finish, etc.
of all foreign matter.
• Keep finished surfaces and wheels free
of all gasoline, oil, etc.
• Protect painted surfaces with automo-
tive type wax.
We do not recommend using a garden
hose to clean your tractor unless the
alectrical system, muffler, air filter and
carburetor are covered to keep water out,
Water in engine can result in a shortened
engine life.
