50. Lift the mower so that the rear wheels are off the
ground. Be careful to support the mower so that it
will not fall or tip while the system is
bled of air. With the bypass valves open and the
engine running, slowly move the control levers back
and forth five or six times. Now close the bypass
valves and with the engine running, slowly move the
control levers back and forth five or six times. It may
be necessary to repeat the above steps until all the
air is purged and the rear wheels are turning at
normal speed. After purging is complete, adjust the
oil level in the reservoir if necessary.
Battery Service
The battery is 12 volts and is a maintenance free
battery. Charge the battery only if it will not start the
mower properly. Remove the battery from the mower
before charging. Follow the instructions of the
battery charger for proper and safe charging of the
battery.
Cleaning the Mower
The underside of the mower deck should be checked
and cleaned twice daily, and more often if the grass
being mowed is lush or wet. The entire mower
should be cleaned daily at the end of the work day.
Cleaning should be done with a leaf blower or low-
pressure compressed air. Wash with water only
when necessary and do not use a pressure washer
or nozzle as the water can enter electrical
connections causing an electrical short, rust and
corrosion. When washing with water, do so when the
unit has cooled down. Washing a hot machine can
cause various unseen system damage. If water is
used for cleaning, immediately dry it with a leaf
blower or low-pressure compressed air. Once the
wash is complete, always lubricate and grease all
applicable areas.
