HYDROSTATIC TRANSMISSION WARM UP

WARNING: Experience indicates that alcohol blended
fuels (called gasohol or using ethanol or methanol) can
attract moisture which leads to separation and formation of
acids during storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel
system of an engine while in storage_ To avoid engine
problems, the fuel system should be emptied before storage of 30 days or longer. Drain the gas tank, start the
engine and let it run until the fuel lines and carburetor are
empty. Use fresh fuel next season. See Storage Instructions for additional tnformation. Never use engine or
carburetor cleaner products in the fuel tank or permanent
damage may occur.

Before driving the unit in cold weather, the transmission should be warmed up as follows:
° Be sure the tractor is on level ground.
° Place the motion control lever in neutral.
Release the parking brake and let the clutch/brake
slowly return to operating position,,
° Allow one minute for transmission to warm up.
This can be done dudng the engine warm up
period.
° The attachments can be used during the engine warmup period after the transmission has been warmed up
and may require the choke control be pulled out slightly.
NOTE: If at a high altitude (above 3000 feet) or in cold
temperatures (below 32 F) the carburetor fuel mixture may
need to be adjusted for best engine performance. See "TO

Tire chains cannot be used when the mower housing is
attached to tractor°

Mower should be properly leveled for best mowin.g
performance. See "TO LEVEL MOWER HOUSING in
the Service and Adjustments section of this manual°
Use the runner on the right hand side of mower as a
guide. The blade cuts approximately an inch outside
the runner (See Fig° 8).
The left hand side of mower should be used for trimming.
Drive so that clippings are discharged onto the area
that has been cut. Have the cut area to the right of the
tractor. This will result in a more even distribution of
clippings and more uniform cutting.
When mowing large areas, start by turning to the right
so that clippings will discharge away from shrubs,
fences, driveways, etco After one or two rounds, mow
in the opposite direction making left hand turns until
finished (See Fig. 1t).
If grass is extremely tall, it should be mowed twice to
reduce load and possible fire hazard from dried clippings. Make first cut relatively high; the second to the
desired height.
Do not mow grass when it is wet Wet grass will plug
mower and leave undesirable clumps. Allow grass to
dry before mowing.
Always operate engine at full throttle when mowing to
assure better mowing performance and proper discharge of material. Regulate ground speed by selecting a low enough gear to give the mower cutting
performance as well as the quality of cut desired.
When operating attachments, select a ground speed
that will suit the terrain and give best performance of
the attachment being used,

To ensure proper operation and performance, it is recommended that the transmission be purged before operating
tractor for the first time. This procedure will remove any
trapped air inside the transmission which may have developed during shipping of your tractor.
IMPORTANT: SHOULD YOUR TRANSMISSION REQUIRE
REMOVAL FOR SERVICE OR REPLACEMENT, IT
SHOULD BE PURGED AFTER REINSTALLATION
BEFORE OPERATING THE TRACTOR.

Place tractorsafely on level surface with engine offand
parking brake set,.
Disengage transmission by placing freewheel control
in freewheeling position (See "TO TRANSPORT _ in
this section of manual).

Sitting in thetractor seat, start engine. After the engine
is running, move throttle control to slow position. With
motion control lever in neutral (N) position, slowly
disengage clutch/brake pedal
.
Move motion control lever to full forward position and
hold for five (5) seconds. Move lever to full reverse
position and hold for five (5) seconds. Repeat this
procedure three (3) times.
NOTE: During this procedure there will be no movement of
drive wheels. The air is being removed from hydraulic drive
system.
°
Move motion control lever to neutral (N) position. Shutoff engine and set parking brake.

SECTION

TRACTOR

TO SHARPEN

Always observe safety rules when performing any maintenance.

Care should be taken to keep the blade balanced. An
unbalanced blade will cause excessive vibrationand eventual damage to mower and engine_

BRAKE OPERATION
If tractor requires more than six (6) feet stopping distance
at high speed in highest gear, then brake must be adjusted°
(See "TO ADJUST BRAKE" in the Service and Adjustments section of this manual).

TIRES

BLADE (See Fig. 13)

The bladecan be sharpened with a file or on a grinding
wheel, Do not attemptto sharpen while on the mower°
To check blade balance, you will need a 5/8" diameter
steelbolt, pin, or a cone balancer,, (When using a cone
batancer, follow the instructions supplied with balancer).

•

Keep tires free of gasoline, oil, or insect control chemicals which can harm rubber.

Avoid stumps, stones, deep ruts, sharp objects and
other hazards that may cause tire damage,

Slide b_adeon to an unthreaded portion of the steel bolt
or pin and holdthe bolt or pin parallel with the ground.
If blade is balanced, it should remain in a horizontal
position. If either end of the blade moves downward,
sharpen the heavy end until the blade is balanced.

NOTE: Do not use a nail for balancing blade. The lobes of
the center hole may appear to be centered, but are not.

NOTE: To seal tire punctures and prevent flat tires due to
slow leaks, tire sealant may be purchased from your local
parts dealer. Tire sealant also prevents tire dry rot and
corrosion.

BLADE CARE
For best results mower blades must be kept sharp. Replace bent or damaged blades°

BLADE REMOVAL

(See Fig. 12)

Raise mower to highest position to allow access to
blades°

Remove hex bolt, lock washer and flat washer securing
blade.

Install new or resharpened blade with trailing edge up
towards deck as shown.

•

Reassemble hex bolt, lock washer and flat washer in
exact order as shown.

FIG. 13

BATrERY
Your tractor has a batter;/charging system which is sufficient for normal use. However, periodic charging of the

carburetor are empty.

Never use engine orcarburetor cleaner products in the
fuel tank or permanent damage may occur.
Use fresh fuel next season.

NOTE: Fuel stabilizer is an acceptable alternative in
minimizingthe formation of fuel gum deposits during storage. Add stabilizer to gasoline in fuel tank or storage
container. Atways follow the mix ratio found on stabilizer
container. Run engine at least 10 minutes after adding
stabilizerto allow the stabilizer to reach the carburetor. Do
not drain the gas tank and carburetor if using fuet stabilizer.

ENGINE OIL

Touch up all rusted or chipped paint surfaces; sand
lightly before painting.

Drain oil (with engine warm) and replace with clean engine
oil
(See "ENGINE" in the Customer Responsibilities
section of this manual).

BATTERY
•

Fully charge the battery for storage°

After a period of time in storage, battery may require
recharging°
To help prevent corrosion and power leakage during
long periods of storage, battery cables should be
disconnected and battery cleaned thoroughly (see "TO
CLEAN BATTERY AND TERMINALS in the Customer Responsibilities section of this manual).
After cleaning, leave cables disconnected and place
cables where they cannot come in contact with battery
terminals°

Be sure battery drain tube is securely attached.

Do not store gasoline from one season to another_

if battery is removed from tractor for storage, do not
store battery directly on concrete or damp surfaces.

Reptace your gasoline can if your can starts to rust.
Rust and/or dirt in your gasoline will cause problems.

ff possible, store your tractor indoors and cover it to
give protectionfrom dust and dirt.

CYLINDERS
°

Remove spark ptug(s)_

•

Pour one ounce of oil through spark plug hole(s) into
cytinder(s) o

Turn ignition key to "START" position for a few seconds
to distribute oil.

Replace with new spark plug(s).

OTHER

Cover your tractor with a suitable protective cover that
does not retain moisture. Do not use plastic. Plastic
cannot breathe which allowscondensation to form and
will cause your tractor to rust°
IMPORTANT: NEVER COVER TRACTOR WHILE ENGINE
AND EXHAUST AREAS ARE STILL WARM..
