Maintenance

WARNING

To avoid serious injury, perform maintenance on the tractor or snowthrower only when the engine is stopped, parking brake is set and all moving parts have stopped. Always remove the ignition key before beginning maintenance or adjustments to prevent accidental starting of the engine.

MAINTENANCE

In general, linkage connections and other parts that have partial rotational or sliding movement should be lubricat- ed periodically with SAE 30 weight oil. Avoid applying excessive amounts of oil or grease since this may cause a build-up of dirt around the lubricated area, making sub- sequent lubrication more difficult to accomplish.
