Fill & Check Engine Oil
1. Use the dipstick (C, Figure 5) to check the engine oil
level. If necessary add engine oil. Check engine
manufacturer's owner's manual for oil recommenda-
tions.
Check /Fill Transmission Oil
Oil Type: Mobil 1™, 15W-50 synthetic oil or Castrol
Syntec™ 5W-50 oil.
1. Check the oil level when the unit is cold. The inspec-
tion port is located on the inside of the right tank
cover. The oil level should be within 1/2" (1.3 cm) of
the horizontal level mark (A, Figure 6). If the oil is
below this level, proceed to step 2.
2. Before removing the reservoir cap, make sure the
area around the reservoir cap and fill neck of the
reservoir is free of dust, dirt, or other debris. Loosen
the locking capscrew (E, Figure 5) securing the lock-
ing tab (D), slide the lock tab back, and remove the
cap (B).
3. Add either Mobil 1™, 15W-50 synthetic oil or Castrol
Syntec™ 5W-50 oil. DO NOT use conventional oils.
4. Reinstall the reservoir cap, move the locking tab
between two notches, and tighten the locking cap-
screw. The locking tab is installed as a reminder to
the customer to not put fuel in this reservoir.

Pressures
The tires are over-inflated for shipping purposes. Inflate
to the pressures shown. Note that these pressures may
differ slightly from the "Max Inflation" stamped on the
side-wall of the tires. The pressures shown provide prop-
er traction, improve cut quality, and extend tire life.
