GENERAL
RECOMMENDATIONS
The warranty on this tractor does not cover
items that have been subjected to operator
abuse or negligence. To receive full value
from the warranty, operator must maintain
tractor as instructed in this manual. Some
adjustments will need to be made periodi-
cally to properly maintain your tractor.
All adjustments in the Service and
Adjustments section of this manual should
be checked at least once each season.
o Once a year you should replace the
spark plug, clean or replace air filter, and
check blades and belts for wear. A new
spark plug and clean air filter assure
proper air-fuel mixture and help your
engine run better and last longer.
BEFORE
EACH
USE
- Check engine oil level.
Check brake operation.
• Checktire pressure.
- Check operator presence and interlock
systems for proper operation.
o Check for loose fasteners.

O Refer to Maintenance "Engine" Section
IMPORTANT: Do not oil or grease the
pivot points which have specia! nylon
bear-ings. Viscous lubricants will attract
dust and dirt that will shorten the life of the
self-lubricating
bearings. If you feel they
must be lubricated, use only a dry, pow-
dered graphite type lubricant sparingly.
