Bleeding Air from the Hydraulic System

Bleeding Air from the Hydraulic System

Whenever servicing the hydraulic system, it is of the utmost importance to keep any dirt or debris from getting into the system. Clean off all parts before disassembly and assembly. When any of the hydraulic parts are disconnected or removed or when the oil is changed, air must be bled from the system. If air is entrained in the system, loss of power, excessive heat, and damage to the hydraulic pumps may occur. First, make sure the oil level in the reservoir is correct. The oil should be level with the bottom threads of the oil level port. Use fully synthetic oil: Mobil1 15W-50. With the bypass valves open and the engine running, slowly move the control levers back and forth five or six times. Now close the bypass valves and with the engine running, slowly move the control levers back and forth five or six times. It may be necessary to repeat the above steps until all the air is purged and the rear wheels are turning at normal speed. After purging is complete, adjust the oil level in the reservoir if necessary.

Battery Service

The battery is 12 volts and is a maintenance free battery. Charge the battery only if it will not start the mower properly. Remove the battery from the mower before charging. Follow the instructions of the battery charger for proper and safe charging of the battery.

Cleaning the Mower

The underside of the mower deck should be checked and cleaned twice daily and more often if the grass being mowed is lush or wet. The entire mower should be cleaned daily at the end of the work day. Cleaning should be done with a leaf blower or low- pressure compressed air. Wash with water only when necessary and do not use a pressure washer or nozzle as the water can enter bearings and electrical connections causing an electrical short, rust and corrosion. When washing with water, avoid spraying near the hydro cap and do so when the unit has cooled down. Washing a hot machine can cause various unseen system damage. If water is used for cleaning, immediately dry it with a leaf

blower or low-pressure compressed air and run with blades engaged for approximately 10 minutes. Once the wash is complete, always lubricate and grease all applicable areas.
