Procedure
You can raise the front of the mower and support to
access under the machine for maintenance.
WARNING
The machine could fall onto someone and
cause serious injury or death.
• Always shut off the engine, engage the
parking brake, and remove the key before
performing any maintenance on the mower.
• Use extreme caution when the machine
is raised and supported on its back. The
blades and moving parts are exposed and
could cause injury.
• Use this position only for cleaning,
removing blades or baffles, and
maintenance.
1.
Park the machine on a level surface, disengage
the PTO, and engage the parking brake.
2.
Shut off the engine, remove the key, and wait
for all moving parts to stop before leaving the
operating position.
3.
Remove the battery from the machine; refer to
the Operator's Manual.

5.
Drain the fuel from the fuel tank; refer to Draining
the Fuel Tank in the Operator's Manual.

Remove the hydraulic-tank cap and place a
piece of plastic over the opening and install the
cap.
This seals the hydraulic tank and prevents fluid
from leaking.
