•Keep finished surfaces and wheels free of all gasoline, oil, etc.

•Protect painted surfaces with automotive type wax.

We do not recommend using a garden hose or pressure washer to clean your tractor unless the engine and trans- mission are covered to keep water out. Water in engine or transmission will shorten the useful life of your tractor. Use compressed air or a leaf blower to remove grass, leaves and trash from tractor and mower.

DECK WASHOUT PORT (See Fig. 20)

Your tractor’s deck is equipped with a washout port on its surface as part of its deck wash system. It should be utilized after each use.

1.Drive the tractor to a level, clear spot on your lawn, near enough to a water spigot for your garden hose to reach.

IMPORTANT: Make certain the tractor’s discharge chute is directed AWAY from your house, garage, parked cars, etc. Remove bagger chute or mulch cover if attached.

2.Make sure the attachment clutch control is in the “DISENGAGED” position, set the parking brake, and stop the engine.

3.Thread the nozzle adapter (packaged with your tractor’s Operator’s Manual) onto the end of your garden hose.

4.Pull back the lock collar of the nozzle adapter and push the adapter onto the deck washout port at the left end of the mower deck. Release the lock collar to lock the adapter on the nozzle.

7.Move the tractor’s attachment clutch control to the “ENGAGED” position. Remain in the operator’s position with the cutting deck engaged until the deck is cleaned.

8.Move the tractor’s attachment clutch control to the “DISENGAGED” position. Turn the ignition key to the STOP position to turn the tractor’s engine off. Turn the water off.

9.Pull back the lock collar of the nozzle adapter to discon- nect the adapter from the nozzle washout port.

10.Move the tractor to a dry area, preferably a concrete or paved area. Place the attachment clutch control in the “ENGAGED” position to remove excess water and to help dry before putting the tractor away.
