3. CHECKING THE ENGINE
The engine has been serviced prior to ship-
ment. However, it is important to check
the oil level prior to starting the engine.
If more oil is required, follow the engine
manufacturer recommendations. Be
careful not to overfill.
IMPORTANT! GASOLINE SHOULD
BE ADDED OUTSIDE IN
A WELL VENTILATED AREA.
Add approximately one gallon of fuel to
the tank. Be certain to follow the engine
manufacturers recommendations on the
type of fuel to use.
The gearbox is filled with lubricant at the
factory. However, verify that the gearbox
is filled by removing the Oil Check Plug
(Part #T143P) located on the side of the
gearbox.
The lubricant should be level with the oil
check plug opening.
If you need to add lubricant, use ONLY
TR125L, which is specially blended by
Swisher Mower and Machine Company.
