General Information / Installation Requirements
Replacement Oil Filter
Included in the packing box of this unit is a replacement filter element for filter assembly in the tank. This Mower unit's hydraulic components have been carefully cleaned and packaged at the factory to prevent contamination from entering the system. However, dust and dirt particles may enter into the sealed components through transportation, handling, rain, or just sitting in a dirty or harsh environment. Therefore to assure that the hydraulic system is properly clean, please prepare the area where the unit is to be assembled. The area should be on a hard concrete floor that has been swept clean of all dust and contaminants. Unpacked the Mower unit carefully so that the seals on the hydraulic components are not broken or pulled off.
