MAINTENANCE

WOODS

ENGINE OIL

Do not perform engine maintenance without the engine off, spark plug wires disconnected and PTO disengaged.

AFTER FIRST FIVE (5) HOURS

While the engine is warm:

1.Release the oil drain hose assembly from the engine clip J. Lay hose assembly over the frame edge or through the frame cutout, which ever is most convenient.

2.Remove the rubber cap D from the tip of the hose assembly and turn the drain valve to allow oil to drain from the engine. Dispose of used oil in accordance with local requirements.

3.Clean drain valve and tighten the plastic portion of the drain valve back into the metal portion of the valve. Replace rubber cap over the tip of the valve. Replace hose assembly back into engine clip.

4.Change oil filter.

5.Fill the crankcase with fresh oil to the full mark.

Do not overfill. See engine manual for oil specifications.

DAILY

1.Check oil level with the dipstick.

2.If oil is needed, add fresh oil of proper viscosity and grade. See engine manual for oil specifications. Do not overfill.

3.Replace dipstick before starting engine.

PERIODIC OIL CHANGES

1.See engine manual for oil and filter change inter- vals after the break-in period.

2.Follow instructions for first oil change, above.

SPARK PLUGS

Remove each plug and check condition.

-Good operating conditions are indicated if the plug has a light coating of grey or tan deposit.

-A white blistered coating indicates overheating. A black coating indicates an “over rich” fuel mixture. Both may be caused by a clogged air cleaner or improper carburetor adjustment.

-Do not sandblast, wire brush or otherwise attempt to repair a plug in poor condition. Best results are obtained with a new plug.

-Set plug gap as specified in engine manual..

FUEL FILTER

An in-line fuel filter is located in the fuel supply line. Inspect at every oil change to make sure it is clean and unobstructed. Replace if dirty.
