HYDROSTATIC TRANSMISSION OIL & FILTER SERVICE:

Dirt or water in oil can ruin the hydrostatic transmissions.

SERVICE INTERVALS:

1.Initial filter service - 50 hours

2.Every 250 hours or once a year thereafter.

OIL REQUIREMENTS:

Any high quality engine oil with an API classification of SG/CD is recommended.

RECOMMENDED OIL WEIGHT:

Normal operation temperatures - 20W50

Cold climate usage - 10W40

Another alternative that will provide excellent all- climate performance and extended time between oil changes is a 15W50 synthetic engine oil.

OIL FILTER:

P/N 7252 - IMPORTANT

The oil filter is a special design for use on “vacuum or suction” oil flow systems.

DO NOT:

Use automotive engine oil filters. These filters require a “pressure” to allow oil flow. Usage will result in an “air-lock” condition with possible damage.
