CLEANING

Clean engine, battery, seat, finish, etc. of all foreign matter.

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 transmis- sion covered to keep water out. Water in engine or transmission will shorten the usful life of your tractor. Use compressed

air or a leaf blower to remove grass, leaves and trash from tractor and mower.
