Checking Tire Pressures; Checking/Adding Fuel; Fuel Filter - Ferris 5900631 Operator's Manual

CHECK TIRE PRESSURES
Tire pressure should be checked periodically, and
maintained 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.

CHECKING / ADDING FUEL
To add fuel:
1. Remove the fuel cap (D, Figure 7).

3. Place a container below the filter to catch spilled
fuel.
4. Using a pliers, open and slide hose clamps from
fuel filter.

6. Install new filter in proper flow direction in fuel line.
7. Secure with hose clamps.

the fuel selector valve when finished.
Do not use gasoline containing
METHANOL, gasohol containing more than
10% ethanol, gasoline additives, premium
gasoline, or white gas because engine/fuel
system damage could result.
