abuse or negligence. To receive full value
from the warranty, operator must maintain

Some adjustments will need to be made
periodicaltyto properly maintain your tractor.

IMPORTANT: Do not oil or grease the pivot
points which have special nylon bearings.
Viscous lubricants will attract dust and dirt
that will shorten the life of the self-lubricating
bearings. Ifyoufeelthey must be lubricated,
use only a dry, powdered graphite type lu-
bricant sparingly,
