Cub Cadet 3208 Operator's Manual page 24

Using the lubrication illustration as a
guide, make certain that all lubrication
fittings are installed and functioning.
Be sure all fittings are free from dirt
and paint so the lubricant is certain to
enter the bearing.
Using a pressure lubricating gun,
always force the lubricant through the
full length of each bearing until it
emerges at the end, carrying with it
the worn lubricant and any dirt that
may have entered the bearing.
Miscellaneous working
provided with lubrication fittings should
be oiled regularly with a good grade of
lubricating oil.
Always lubricate the tractor thoroughly
before taking it to a remote location for
a prolonged period of time.
Lubricant is cheap. Use plenty of it.
Worn parts can be expensive to
replace.
Keep your supply of lubricating oil and
grease stored in clean containers, and
covered to protect from dust and dirt.
Keep the lubricating gun nozzle clean
and wipe dirt from the grease fittings
before lubricating.
Electrical Box
The electrical box contains the relay
and fuses. See Figure 23 for the
electrical box layout. The electrical box
is located under the upper bulkhead in
front of the dash panel. To access the
electrical box:
• Raise the hood of the tractor
• Locate the locking tabs on the left
and right side of
bulkhead.
• Pull up on the tabs and lift the upper
bulkhead from the tractor.
• Lift the locking tab and remove the
cover from the electrical box.

Fuses
Fuse
Fuses are installed to protect the trac-
parts not
tor's electrical system from damage
caused by excessive amperage.
Always use the same capacity fuse for
replacement. Refer to the Specifica-
tions Chart. If the electrical system
does not function, check the fuses.
To replace a fuse, note the position of
the fuse and pull the old fuse from the
electical box.
Compare the suspect fuse with Figure
24 to determine if is good or bad.
GOOD
Install the new fuse in the position
from which the old fuse was removed.
Off-Season Storage

a period longer than 30 days, the fol-
lowing procedures are recommended:
WARNING: Never store the
the upper tractor with fuel in the tank
indoors or in poorly venti-
lated enclosures, where fuel
fumes may reach an open
flame, spark or pilot light as
on a furnace, water heater,
clothes dryer, etc.
