Maintenance

!WARNING

Read and observe all safety warnings in this manual and in the engine service manual.

!WARNING

Except when checking or changing components, always keep protective shields on for safety as well as for cleanliness.

!WARNING

Keep your machine clean and remove any deposits of trash and clippings, which can cause engine fires and hydraulic overheating as well as excessive belt wear.

!WARNING

DO NOT have engine running when servicing or making adjustments to the mower. Place control levers in the neutral position, disengage blade engagement, shut engine off and remove ignition switch key.

!DANGER

Repairs or maintenance specifically requiring engine power should be performed by trained personnel only. Control levers should be set in park position. If the control levers are to be operated, the tires should be properly supported off the floor. Enclosed areas should be properly ventilated to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning.

!WARNING

Before working on or under the deck, make certain the engine cannot be accidentally started. Shut engine off and remove ignition switch key for maximum safety. Repairs or maintenance requiring engine power should be performed by trained personnel only.

IMPORTANT: The arm rests on the Deluxe Seat must be pivoted up before hinging the seat platform forward. Leaving the arm rests down while hinging the seat platform forward can cut the arm rest covers and void their warranty.

Regular maintenance is the best prevention for costly downtime or expensive, premature repair. The following pages contain suggested maintenance information and schedules which the operator should follow on a routine basis.

Check initially and periodically for loose bolts and pins. Torque loose bolts per the “Torque Values Chart” on page 48. Remain alert for unusual noises, they could be signaling a problem. Visually inspect the machine for any abnormal wear or damage. A good time to detect potential problems is while performing scheduled maintenance service. Correcting the problem as quickly as possible is the best insurance.

Clear away heavy build-up of grease, oil and dirt, especially around the engine and under the seat platform; minute dust particles are abrasive to close- tolerance engine and hydraulic assemblies.

Inspect mower daily for grass clippings, tangled wire and string. The underside of the mower deck will collect a build-up of grass clippings and dirt, especially when grass is wet or has high moisture content. This build-up will harden, restricting blade and air movement and will usually produce a poorer quality of cutting. Therefore, debris should be routinely removed from under the deck.

To do this it will be necessary to raise and block the deck in the full up position and scrape the build-up from underneath.

Some repairs require the assistance of a trained service mechanic and should not be attempted by unskilled personnel. Consult your Land Pride dealer when assistance is needed.

!DANGER

Exercise caution when working under the deck as the mower blades are extremely sharp. Wearing gloves is advisable when working around or with the blades.

!WARNING

When possible, clean under mower using a stick or similar instrument making sure that no part of the body, especially arms and hands are under mower.

Torque Values

!WARNING

Particular attention must be given to tightening the drive wheel lug nuts, blade spindle bolts and electric clutch bolt. Failure to correctly torque these items may result in the loss of a wheel, blade or burnt clutch which can result in serious damage and/or personal injury.

It is recommended that the lug nuts, spindle bolts and electric clutch bolt be checked after the first 2 hours of initial operation and after removal for repair or replacement. Thereafter, they should be checked every 50 hours of operation.

NOTE: Refer to "Torque Values Chart" and “Additional Torque Values” on page 48 for correct torque values.
