Rover 2042 warranty Fuse, Tires, Changing the Deck Belt

Fuse

WARNING! Before servicing, repairing, or inspecting, always disengage PTO, set parking brake, stop engine and remove key to prevent unintended starting.

A fuse is installed in your tractor’s wiring harness to protect the tractor’s electrical system from damage caused by excessive amperage.

If the electrical system does not function, or your tractor’s engine will not crank, first check to be certain that the fuse has not blown. It is located under the hood, mounted behind the top of the dash panel on the support bar.

Caution: Always use a replacement fuse with the same amperage capacity as the blown fuse.

Tires

WARNING! Never exceed the maximum inflation pressure shown on the sidewall of the tire.

Refer to the tire sidewall for exact tire manufacturer’s recommended or maximum psi. Do not overinflate.

Uneven tire pressure could cause the cutting deck to mow unevenly.

Changing the Transmission Drive Belt

Several components must be removed and special tools used in order to change the tractor’s transmission drive belt. See your Cub Cadet dealer to have the transmission drive belt replaced.

Changing the Deck Belt

WARNING! Shut the engine off and remove ignition key before removing the cutting blade(s) for sharpening or replacement. Protect your hands by

using heavy gloves when grasping blades and pulleys.

Warning! The V-belts found on your tractor are specially designed to engage and disengage safely. A substitute (non-OEM) V-belt can be dangerous by

not disengaging completely. For a proper working machine, use factory approved belts.
