CHECK TIRE PRESSURES
Tire pressure should be checked periodically, and
maintained at the levels shown in the chart. Note that
these pressures may differ slightly from the “Max
Inflation” stamped on the side-wall of the tires.The
pressures shown provide proper traction, improve cut
quality, and extend tire life.
CHECKING / ADDING FUEL
To add fuel:
1. Remove the fuel cap (see A, Figure 18).
2. Fill the tank to the bottom of the filler neck. This will
allow for fuel expansion.
NOTE: Do not overfill. Refer to your engine manual for
specific fuel recommendations.
3. Install and hand tighten the fuel cap.
FUEL FILTER
The fuel filter is located in the fuel line between fuel tank
and fuel pump. If the filter is dirty or clogged, replace as
follows:
1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
2. Place a container below the filter to catch spilled fuel.
3. Using a pliers, open and slide hose clamps from fuel
filter (C, Figure 18).
4. Remove hoses from filter.
5. Install new filter in proper flow direction in fuel line.
6. Secure with hose clamps.
7. Reconnect the negative battery cable when finished.
ENGINE MAINTENANCE
Refer to engine owner’s manual for all engine
maintenance procedures and recommendations.
CHECK /FILL TRANSMISSION OIL
Oil Type: 20W-50 conventional detergent motor oil.
1. Check the oil level when the unit is cold. The
inspection port is located on the inside of the right
tank cover. The oil level should be within 1/2” (1.3
cm) of the horizontal level mark (D, Figure 19). If the
oil is below this level, proceed to step 2.
2. Before removing the reservoir cap, make sure the
area around the reservoir cap and fill neck of the
reservoir is free of dust, dirt, or other debris. Loosen
the locking capscrew (E, Figure 18) securing the
locking tab (D), slide the lock tab back, and remove
the cap (B).
3. Add oil up to the full mark (D, Figure 19).
WARNING
Gasoline is highly flammable and must be
handled with care. Never fill the tank when the
engine is still hot from recent operation. Do not
allow open flame, smoking or matches in the area.
Avoid over-filling and wipe up any spills.
Do not remove fuel filter when engine is hot, as
spilled gasoline may ignite. DO NOT spread hose
clamps further than necessary. Ensure clamps
grip hoses firmly over filter after installation.
Do not use gasoline containing METHANOL,
gasohol containing more than 10% ethanol,
gasoline additives, premium gasoline, or white
gas because engine/fuel system damage
could result.
