Regular Maintenance
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.
TRANSMISSION IDENTIFICATION
Several service procedures within this book are identified
by, and vary by, transmission type. To determine what
transmission is in your tractor, check the identification
tag attached to the axle of the transmission (Figure 10),
or check your tractor's parts book.
TRANSMISSION MAINTENANCE
Do not allow dirt, water, or other debris to
enter the expansion chamber or
transmission. Even a small amount of dirt
can damage the transmission
K46 Maintenance
The K46 is a sealed unit and does not require regular
maintenance. If the transmission lacks drive or is exces-
sively noisy, it may need to be purged. See TRANSMIS-
SION PURGING in the Troubleshooting, Adjustments, &
Service Section.
SAFETY INTERLOCK SYSTEM
CHECK
Service Interval: Every Fall & Spring
Check the function of the safety interlock system using
the test procedure found on page 11 of this manual. If
the tractor fails any of the tests, see your dealer.
PTO CLUTCH ADJUSTMENT CHECK
Service Interval: After 25 Hrs, Then Every 250 Hrs
Check the PTO clutch adjustment after the initial 25 hour
break-in period and then after every 250 hours of opera-
tion–or if the clutch starts slipping or will not engage.
Check and adjust the clutch using the procedure outlined
in the Adjustments section of this manual.
