Check Tire Pressures; Battery Maintenance - Simplicity Legacy XL 2900 Series Operator's Manual

CHECK TIRE PRESSURES

Service Interval: Every 25 Hours
Tire pressure should be checked periodically, and main-
tained at the levels shown in the chart. Note that these
pressures may differ slightly from the "Max Inflation"
stamped on the side-wall of the tires. The pressures
shown provide proper traction, improve cut quality, and
extend tire life.

BATTERY MAINTENANCE

When removing or installing battery cables,
disconnect the negative cable FIRST and reconnect
it LAST. If not done in this order, the positive
terminal can be shorted to the frame by a tool.
