Caster Wheels

Check every 200 hours. Check that wheels rotate freely.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

DO NOT add any type of tire liner or foam fill material to the tires. Excessive loads created by foam tires will cause premature failures.

Use only O.E.M. specified tires.

Removal and Installation

Remove nut and caster bolt. Pull the wheel out of the fork.

To reInstall, reverse the order. Tighten caster bolt.

If wheels do not rotate freely, take the unit to the dealer for service.

Hardware

Check daily. Inspect the entire machine for loose or missing hardware.

Cleaning

Regular cleaning and washing, especially under the mower deck, will increase the machine’s life-span. Make it a habit to clean the machine directly after use (after it is cooled), before the dirt sticks.

Do not spray water on the top of the mower deck. Use compressed air to clean the top side of mower deck. Regularly clean deck and underside of the deck with normal water pressure. Do not use a high pressure washer or steam cleaner. Avoid spraying engine and electrical components with water.

Do not rinse hot surfaces with cold water. Let unit cool before washing.
