to the left then push the seat forward or back to the desired posi- tion. Release the lever so the seat will lock in place.

9.Digital Tachometer and Hour Meter: (See Figure 1) Located on the right side of the mower of the ignition switch. When the machine is running the tachometer displays engine rpm. When the machine is off the tachometer displays running time.

Note: There will be a flashing “LUBE” for each recommended lubrication interval.

There is a flashing “OIL” at each recommended engine oil and filter change. Flashing of “Lube” or “Oil” will continue for 1 hour regardless of maintenance done to the unit.

10.Choke Lever: (See Figure 2) The Choke Lever is located on the left instrument panel next to the seat. The Choke Lever is operated manually. Having the Choke Lever in the ON position helps the engine to start during initial start-up. During normal operation the Choke Lever should be in the OFF position.

B.Initial Adjustments and Service

1.Check the fluid levels and tires:

Note: These checks should be made daily, before starting the engine.

a.Fuel: Using a good grade of unleaded, regular gasoline (for a gasoline engine), fill the fuel tank (beside the engine on the left or right side of the mower). When the fuel reaches one inch from the top of the tank, stop. DO NOT OVER- FILL. Space must be left for expansion.

b.Engine Oil: (Filled at the factory before shipment.) Pull out the oil dipstick, wipe it off and reinsert it. Pull it out again and read the oil level. If it is below the operating range, add oil through the fill tube using a funnel to bring it up to the top of the operating range.

Note: Gasoline Engine: Use SAE 10W30 or SAE 10W40 engine oil, rated for ser-

vice SJ.

c.Hydraulic Oil: (Filled at the factory before shipment.) The hydraulic oil tank is located beneath the operator’s seat. Always wipe off the area around the oil tank fill neck before checking the oil level to prevent dirt from contaminating the oil. Remove the cap and make sure the oil level is up to the lowest hole on the oil tank fill neck. The top hole is for vent- ing. If the oil level is low, fill with a good grade of SAE20W- 50 oil.

d.Tires: 8-10 psi Rear, 25-30 psi Front Caster Tires
