MAINTENANCE
Cleaning and Washing
Regular cleaning and washing, especially under the mower deck, will increase the machine’s lifespan. 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.
Use protective glasses when cleaning and washing.
Caster Wheels
Check every 200 hours. Lift front of unit off of ground so caster wheels can rotate freely. Tighten caster bolt (34) then back off 1/2 turn. Check that wheel rotates freely. If wheel does not rotate freely back the caster bolt off in 1/4 turn increments until wheel rotates freely.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
DO NOT add any type of tire liner or foam fill material to the tires. Excessive loads created by foam filled tires will cause premature failures.
Only use O.E.M. specified tires.
Foam filled tires or solid tires will void the warranty.
Removal and installation of caster wheel
1.Remove nut (35) and caster bolt (34).
2.Pull the wheel out of the fork and take care of the sleeve (36).
3.Install in reverse order. Tighten caster bolt according to instructions above.
Hardware
Check daily. Inspect the entire machine for loose or missing hardware.
