Maintenance
9. Check for leaks, including around the oil filter.
10. Wipe up any spilled oil.

Check Hydraulic Oil Level

Service Interval: Every 40 hours
1. Stop engine and wait for all moving parts to stop.
Engage parking brake.
2. Clean area around hydraulic reservoir cap and
remove cap. Oil level should be to the top of the
baffle inside the tank. If not, add oil. Use Exmark
Premium Hydro oil. Replace hydraulic reservoir
cap and tighten until snug. Do Not overtighten.
Note: The baffle is labeled "HOT" and
"COLD". The oil level varies with the
temperature of the oil. The "HOT" level shows
the level of oil when it is at 225°F (107°C). The
"COLD" level shows the level of the oil when
it is at 75°F (24°C). Fill to the appropriate level
depending upon the temperature of the oil. For
example: If the oil is about 150°F (65°C), fill to
halfway between the "HOT" and "COLD" levels.
If the oil is at room temperature (about 75°F
(24°C)), fill only to the "COLD" level.

Check Tire Pressures

Service Interval: Every 40 hours
1. Stop engine, wait for all moving parts to stop, and
remove key. Engage parking brake.
2. Check tire pressure in drive tires.
3. Inflate drive tires to 10 psi (69 kPa).
4. Semi-pneumatic caster tires do not need to be
inflated.
Note: Do Not add any type of tire liner or foam
fill material to the tires. Excessive loads created by
foam filled tires may cause failures to the hydro drive
system, frame, and other components. Foam filling
tires will void the warranty.
