CARE AND MAINTENANCE
LUBRICATION:
A. Engine: Follow engine manufacturer's recommendation.
B. Deck spindles: Lubricate with 3 "shots" only, every 100 hours.
C. Hydrostatic transmission and filter (follow instructions listed below).
Dirt or water in oil can ruin the hydrostatic transmissions.
Check the oil level in hydrostatic transmission oil reservoir after every 25
hours of usage. Clean the oil reservoir cap and the area around it prior to
removal. Check the oil level on the dipstick. The proper oil level
should register between the marked hole on the dipstick and the end of the
dipstick. Replenish as needed with 20W-50 Motor Oil. DO NOT OVERFILL. When
checking the oil level, be very careful to keep the reservoir clean.
Change the oil in the reservoir and hydrostat transmission oil filter after the
first 100 hours of use. Then every 500 hours after that. Remove the
filter and be sure all oil has drained from the reservoir. Replace with new
filter and 20W-50 Mobil Super II.
