CLEANING
o
Clean engine, battery, seat, finish, etc. of all foreign

Keep finished surfaces and wheels free of all gasoline,
oil, etc.
o
Protect painted surfaces with automotive type wax.
We do not recommend using a garden hose to clean your
tractor unless the electrical system, muffler, air filter and
carburetor are covered to keep water out. Water in engine
can result in a shortened engine life.
