Figure 3-5

Warning! Before operating the tractor, make sure the seat is engaged in the seat-stop. Engage the parking brake. Stand behind the machine and pull back on seat until it clicks into place.

Gas and Oil

The fuel tank is located under the hood and has a capacity of three and-a-half gallons. Remove the fuel cap by turning it counterclockwise. Use only clean, fresh (no more than 30 days old), unleaded gasoline. Do not overfill the tank.

The tractor is equipped with a tethered, ratcheting cap, STOP filling tank once fuel is seen inside the filler neck. This ensures that a proper expansion volume is created. Do NOT top off tank. See Figure 3-6.

Figure 3-6

Warning! Use extreme care when handling gasoline. Gasoline is extremely flammable and the vapors are explosive. Never fuel the machine indoors or while the engine is hot or running. Extinguish cigarettes, cigars, pipes and other sources of ignition.

NOTE: Your tractor is shipped with oil in the engine. However, you MUST check the oil level before operating.

Caution: Always check the engine oil level before each use as instructed in the separate Engine Owner’s Manual. Add oil as necessary. Failure to do so may result in serious damage to your engine.
