MAINTENANCE

Pump belt

Check belt every 100 hours for excessive wear. To replace belt. Relieve tension on the deck belt and remove deck belt from clutch. See deck belt instructions on previous page. Loosen bolt on the clutch tie down and rotate out of the way. Using a 1/2” drive ratchet inserted into the square hole in the pump idler arm relieve the tension on the pump belt and remove belt. To reinstall belt. Swing pump idler pulley out toward engine to route belt around it. Then route belt around right side pulley first as you are looking up from the underside of machine. Reinstall idler spring and use the ratchet to rotate idler so the belt may be installed all the way around the last pulley.

Lubrication

See service decal under foot plate for service points and maintenance intervals. Clean grease zerks thoroughly before greasing. See engine manual for engine service. FIG - 13

Tire pressure

Check every 25 hours. All four tires require 15 psi.

Caster Wheels

Check every 200 hours. Lift front of unit off of ground so caster wheels can rotate freely. Tighten caster bolt then back off 1/2 turn. Check that wheel rotates freely. If wheel does not rotate freely back

the caster bolt off in 1/4 turn increments until wheel rotates freely.

NOTE: DO NOT add any type of tire liner or foam fill material to the tires. Excessive loads created by foam filled tires will cause premature failures. Only use O.E.M. specified tires. Foam filled tires or solid tires will void the warranty

Fuel filter

Replace every 500 hours or annually. In extremely dirty conditions replacement may need to be at shorter intervals.

Winter storage
