Servicing the Battery

Service Interval: Every 50 hours—Check the battery-fluid
level (every 30 days if in storage).
Every 50 hours—Check the battery-cable connections.
WARNING
CALIFORNIA
Proposition 65 Warning
Battery posts, terminals, and related
accessories contain lead and lead compounds,
chemicals known to the State of California
to cause cancer and reproductive harm.
Wash hands after handling.
DANGER
Battery electrolyte contains sulfuric acid, which is a
deadly poison and causes severe burns.
• Do not drink electrolyte and avoid contact with
skin, eyes or clothing. Wear safety glasses to
shield your eyes and rubber gloves to protect
your hands.
• Fill the battery where clean water is always
available for flushing the skin.
•
Keep the battery-electrolyte level properly maintained.
•
Keep the top of the battery clean by washing it periodically
with a brush dipped in ammonia or bicarbonate of soda
solution. Flush the top surface with water after cleaning.
Do not remove the fill cap while cleaning.
•
Ensure that the battery cables are kept tight on the
terminals to provide good electrical contact.
•
If corrosion occurs at terminals, remove the battery
cover, disconnect the cables (negative (–) cable first), and
scrape the clamps and terminals separately. Connect the
cables (positive (+) cable first) and coat the terminals
with petroleum jelly.
•
Maintain cell electrolyte level with distilled or
demineralized water. Do not fill the cells above the
bottom of the fill ring inside each cell.
•
If you store the machine in a location where temperatures
are extremely high, the battery runs down more rapidly
than if the machine is stored in a location where
temperatures are cool.

Adjusting the Shift Cables

Service Interval: After the first 10 hours
Every 200 hours
1. Move the shift lever to the N
2. Remove the clevis pins securing the shift cables to the
transaxle-shift arms
1. Shift arm (1st to reverse)
2. Shift arm (2nd to 3rd)
3. Loosen the clevis jam nuts and adjust each clevis, so
that the cable free play is equal forward and backward
relative to the hole in the transaxle-shift arm (with the
transaxle lever free play taken up in the same direction).
4. Install the clevis pins and tighten the jam nuts when
finished.
Adjusting the High–Low Cable
Service Interval: Every 200 hours
1. Remove the clevis pin securing the High–Low cable to
the transaxle (Figure
2. Loosen the clevis jam nut and adjust the clevis so that
the clevis hole aligns with the hole in the transaxle
