Maintenance Instructions

LUBRICATION

LUBRICATION

WARNING

DO NOT attempt to lubricate the machine with the engine running. Disengage the PTO clutch, shut off the machine, and re­ move the ignition key.

Proper lubrication is an important maintenance pro­ cedure. It reduces wear and makes the machine quieter and easier to operate.

Engine Oil

Engine Break-In Oil

No special break-in oil is required. The engine is serviced with 10W-30, Service Class SG oil from the factory. Change the oil after the initial engine break- in period of 8 hours. Thereafter, change oil after every 50 hours of operation.

Checking Engine Crankcase Oil Level

Check the engine crankcase oil level before use and after each 5 hours of continuous operation.

IMPORTANT: The importance of checking and maintaining the proper crankcase oil level cannot be overemphasized. Check the oil level BEFORE

EACH USE.

1.Park the mower on a level surface with the engine­ stopped. Also, make sure the engine is cool and oil has had time to drain into the sump (allow at least five (5) minutes after stopping the engine).

IMPORTANT: NEVER check or add oil with the engine running.

2.Before removing the dipstick, clean the area around the dipstick opening in the engine block to keep any dirt or debris out of the engine.

3.Unscrew and remove the filler plug/dipstick and wipe off with a clean rag. Insert dipstick into filler hole but DO NOT screw it in to check the oil level. Remove the dipstick and check the level. The oil level should be within the safe range (between the H and L marks on the dip- stick).

IMPORTANT: DO NOT operate engine without a sufficient oil supply in the crankcase. DO NOT operate with oil level below the LOW (L) mark or above the FULL (H) mark on the dipstick.
