Gas and Oil Fill-up
The gasoline tank is located under the hood and has a
capacity of either two or three gallons. Do not overfill.
WARNING:
Use extreme care when
handling gasoline. Gasoline is extremely
flammable and the vapors are explosive.
Never fuel machine indoors or while the
engine is hot or running. Extinguish
cigarettes, cigars, pipes, and other sources of
ignition.
Service the engine with gasoline and oil as instructed in
the separate Briggs & Stratton Operator/Owner Manual
packed with your tractor. Read instructions carefully.
IMPORTANT:
Your tractor is shipped with motor oil in the
engine. However, you MUST check the oil level before
operating. Be careful not to overfill.
Identifying the Mulch Plug
On tractor models LTX-1842, a mulch plug can be
found within the cutting deck’s discharge opening.
NOTE:
Refer to Mulching on page 15 for more detailed
information.
If you’d prefer to operate the cutting deck without
mulching, simply remove the mulch plug by
unthreading the plastic wing nut which fastens it to the
cutting deck. This will allow the clippings to discharge
out of the discharge opening during operation. See
Figure 3.

NOTE: On tractor models LTX-2146, the mulch kit is
packed separately within the tractor’s crate.
