V. TRANSMISSION OIL EXPANSION RESERVOIR (NOT SHOWN,
IF EQUIPPED)
The 900 series is equipped with a transmission oil expansion reservoir located under
the seat, connected by hoses to the RH and LH transmission assemblies. The function
of the reservoir is to hold the natural expansion of transmission oil that occurs as the
transmission warms up during operation. DO NOT FILL THE RESERVOIR.
Under normal operating conditions, no oil should be added to the reservoir. The
COLD oil level should be approximately 1/4" above the bottom of the reservoir on
900 models. See the Product Care section of this manual for more information on the
transmission oil expansion reservoirs.
NOTE: Prior to the initial operation of the mower, the oil level in the reservoir may
be slightly higher than the maximum due to air in the oil lines. Operation of the
mower will eventually purge the air from the lines and the oil level will settle to
the maximum.

column. To adjust the column pull up on the steering column adjustment lever and

WITH BAGGER descriptions arise.
