Tail Light Bulb Replacement
Each tail light assembly has two
lightbulbs. Access the back side of the
tail lights from under the rear fender.
NOTE: Because of the close proximity
of the fuel tank, extreme caution
should be taken when removing the
tail light sockets from the reflector
housings. The bulbs can be pulled
from the sockets and dropped into the
reflector housing, which will then
require removal of the reflector
housing to retrieve the bulb.
To replace a light bulb:
• Turn the light bulb socket
counterclockwise to align the tabs
on the socket with the notches in
the tail light reflector.
• Once aligned pull light socket out of
the tail light reflector.
• Pull the light bulb from the socket.
• Replace light bulbs with like part.
• Align the tabs of the socket with the
notches in the reflector and carefully
insert the socket.
• Turn socket clockwise to lock in
place. Make sure the socket is
locked securely in place.
Tire Inflation
Keep the pneumatic tires properly
inflated. Over-inflation will cause
operator discomfort. Under-inflation
will cause short tire life.
Improperly inflated tires will also affect
the level of the mower deck and
quality of cut.
See the tire side wall for proper
inflation range.
Always ensure that the tire valve caps
are in place and tightened securely to
prevent loss of air and to protect the
valve core and stem.
Do not overload the tractor tires by
mounting equipment on the tractor
which exceeds the load capacity of the
size of the tires on the tractor.
Checking Transmission Oil Level

NOTE: Check the oil level only while
the engine is stopped and the tractor is
