Solid fill tires are not recommended for Hustler turf equipment. On any machine, with solid filled tires,
the warranty claim will be denied.
WARNING: Explosive separation of a tire and rim can cause serious injury or death.
Do not attempt to mount a tire without the proper equipment and experience to perform the task.
Always maintain the correct tire pressure and never over inflate.
Never weld or heat a wheel and tire assembly as an explosion may occur. Welding can weaken or
deform a wheel.
When inflating tires, stand to one side and not in front of or over the tire assembly.
Check tires for low pressure, blemishes, damaged rims or missing lug bolts and nuts.
HOUR METER
To recognize when your machine needs servicing, check the hour meter and the maintenance schedule.
The hour meter shows the number of hours the engine has run, and the maintenance schedule lists the
service intervals. "FIG. 3"

LUBRICATION

Schedule. Use SAE multi-purpose grease.
3. Grease the deck idler per the Maintenance Schedule. Use SAE multi-purpose grease.
4. Grease the pump idler per the Maintenance Schedule. Use SAE multi-purpose grease.
5. Grease the two deck pusher arm pivots per the Maintenance Schedule. Use SAE multi-purpose grease.

lubrication annually. Each spindle shaft is equipped with a grease zerk located under the deck. Use no
more than one or two ounces of SAE multi-purpose grease, (1 to 2 pumps on an average grease gun). Do
not force lubricant into grease zerks. Bearings are sealed and do not require much lubricant.
