Check the oil level in hydrostatic transmission oil reservoir after every 25 hours of usage. Do not remove the reservoir cap to check the oil level as this allows dirt to enter the transmission. Replenish as needed with 20W-50 Mobil Super H.D.

A.Wipe area of oil reservoir cap clean of dirt & debris.

B.Remove oil reservoir cap.

C.Fill to line marked on reservoir.

D.Do not overfill.

E.When check oil level be very careful to keep the

reservoir clean and fill only with clean oil.

Change the oil in the reservoir and hydrostat transmission oil filter after the first 200 hours of use. Then every 500 hours after that. Remove the filter and be sure all oil has drained from the reservoir. Replace with new filter and 20W-50 Mobil Super II.
