CARE AND MAINTENANCE
BELTS:
The main hydro drive belt should be checked after the first 10 hours and every 50 hours thereafter. Replace any belts found to be in poor condition. The deck belt is equipped with a spring loaded belt tightener and does not require tightening adjustments. The hydrostatic transmission belt is adjusted manually (see page 32 for tensioning instructions).
LUBRICATION:
A.Engine: Follow engine manufacturer’s recommendation.
B.Deck spindles: Lubricate with 3 “shots” only, every 100 hours.
C.Hydrostatic transmission and filter.
D.P.T.O. Shaft: Grease every 50 hours.
E.Deck lift rod weldment: Grease every 50 hours.
F.Deck Gearbox: See page 31.
SCALPER ROLLER BOLTS:
Scalper roller bolts should be tightened until the spacer bushing will not run relative to the scalper bracket to prevent undue wear on the end of the spacer bushing and the scalper bracket. The proper torque is from 17 to 20 ft. lbs.
