MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE

AVOID EXPLOSIONS OR FIRES
Refuel the tractor when the engine is cool and in a
well-ventilated area, preferably outside.
Never fill the fuel tank with the engine running.
Be sure to use the correct type and grade of fuel.
Keep all sparks, flames and smoking materials well
away while handling fuel.
Ground the fuel funnel or nozzle against the filler neck
on the tractor to prevent sparks.
Do not overfill the tank or spill the fuel. If fuel is spilled,
wipe it up immediately. Install the fuel tank cap securely
after refueling.
Be sure there is plenty of ventilation before charging
the battery. Gas produced while charging the battery is
explosive.
Keep all sparks, flames, and smoking materials well
away from battery. Hydrogen gas at a concentration as
low as 7 per cent can explode in the presence of a
spark or open flame and spatter acid.
Use a flashlight to check the battery electrolyte level.
Never use an open flame or match to check.
Keep the engine clean and free of grass, leaves, or
excessive grease.
Let the engine cool down before storing the tractor in
an enclosure or covering it with a sheet.
