GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS
The warrantyon thistractor does not cover
items that have been subjectedto operator
abuse or negligence. To receive full value
from the warranty,operator must maintain
tractor as instructedin this manual.
Some adjustmentswill need to be made
periodloally to properly maintain your
tractor.
All adjustments in the Service and
Adjustmentssection of this manual should
be checked at least once each season.
• Once a year you should replace the
spark plug, clean or replace air filter,and
check blades and belts for wear. A new
spark plug and clean air filter assure
proper air-fuel mixture and help your
engine run better and last longer.
BEFORE EACH USE

2. Check brake operation.
3. Check tire pressure.
4. Check operator presence and
interlock systems for proper operation.
5. Check for loose fasteners.

IMPORTANT: Do not oil or greasethe
pivot points which have special nylon
bearings. Viscous lubricants will attract
dust and dirt that will shorten the life of the
self-lubricatingbearings. If you feel they
must be lubricated, use only a dry, pow-
dered graphite type lubricant sparingly.
