disniotiiuirg Turn off blades when not mowing. Stop engine before removing grass catcher or undogging

chute. Mow oniy in daylight or good artificial light. Do not operate the machine while under the influence of

alcohol or drugs. Watch for traffic when operating near or crossing roadways. Use extra care when loading or unloading the machine into

a trailer or truck.

II. SLOPE OPERATION

Slopes are a major factor related to loss-of-control and tipover accidents, which can result in severe injuiY or death. All slopes require extra caution. If you cannot back up the slope or if you feel uneasy on it, do not mow it.

DO:

Mow up and down slopes, not across. Remove obstacles such as rocks, tree limbs, etc. Watch for holes, ruts, or bumps. Uneven terrain could

overturn the machine. Tail grass can hide obstacles. Use stow speed. Choose a low gear so that you will not have

to stop or shift while on the slope. Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for wheel

weights or counterweights to improve stability. Use extra care with grass catchers or other attachments.

These can change the stability of the machine. Keep all movement on the slopes slow and gradual. Do not

make sudden changes in speed or direction. Avoid starting or stopping on a slope. If tires lose traction,

disengage the blades and proceed slowly straight down the slope.

DO NOT:

• Do not turn on slopes unless necessary, and then, turn slowly and gradually downhill, if possible.

• Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches, or embankments. The mower could suddenly turn over if a wheel is over the edge of a cliff or ditch, or if an edge caves in.

• Do not mow on wet grass. Reduced traction could cause sliding.

• Do not try to stabilize the machine by putting your foot on the ground.

• Do not use grass catcher on steep slopes.

TEMPERATURE RANGE ANTICIPATED BEFORE NEXT OIL CHANGE

NOTE: Although multi-viscosity oils (5W30,10W30 etc.) improve starting in cold weather, these multi-viscosity oils

will result in increased oil consumption when used above

32°F. Check your engine oil level more frequently to avoid possible engine damage from running low on oil.

Change the oil after every 50 hou rs of operation or at least once a year if the tractor is not used for 50 hours in one year.

Check the crankcase oil level before starting the engine and after each eight (8) hours of operation. Tighten oil fill cap/dipstick securely each time you check the oil level.

TO CHANGE ENGINE OIL (See Fig. 12)

Determine temperature range expected before oil change.

All oil must meet API service classification SF, SG or SH.

• Be sure tractor is on level surface.

• Oil will drain more freely when warm.

• Catch oil in a suitable container.

• Remove oil fill cap/dipstick. Be careful not to allow dirt

to enter the engine when changing oil.

• Remove drain plug.

• After oil has drained completely, replace oil drain plug

and tighten securely.

• Refill engine with oil through oil fill dipstick tube. Pour slowly. Do not overfill. For approximate capacity see “PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS” section of this manual.

• Use gauge on oil fill cap/dipstick for checking level. Be sure dipstick cap is tightened securely for accurate

reading. Keep oil at “FULL” line on dipstick.

Service air cleaner more often under dusty conditions

• Remove knobs and cover. TO SERVICE PRE-CLEANER

• Wash it in liquid detergent and water.

• Squeeze it dry in a clean cloth.

• Saturate it in engine oil. Wrap it in clean, absorbent cloth and squeeze to remove excess oil.

• If very dirty or damaged, replace pre-cleaner.

TO SERVICE CARTRIDGE

• Clean cartridge by tapping gently on flat surface. If very dirty or damaged, replace cartridge.

• Reinstall precleaner cartridge, cover and secure with knobs.

IMPORTANT: PETROLEUM SOLVENTS, SUCH AS KEROSENE, ARE NOT TO BE USED TO CLEAN THE CARTRIDGE. THEY MAY CAUSE DETERIORATION OFTHE CARTRIDGE. DO NOTOIL CARTRIDGE. DO NOT USE PRESSURIZED AIR TO CLEAN OR DRY CARTRIDGE.
