Use regular unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 87
or higher. Maximum of 10% ethanol (E10) in fuel. Fuels with
greater than 10% ethanol (such as E15, E20 and E85) voids
warranty. Fuels with greater than 10% ethanol are not
approved for use and such illegal use could cause equipment
failure and pose a fire hazard.
Refer to the
Engine Owner’s Manual
for additional fuel spec-
ification requirements.
The fuel filter is installed in the fuel line between fuel tank
and engine fuel pump. Replace filter annually or after every
500 hours of operation, whichever occurs first. Figure 4-5
When replacing the fuel filter, check the fuel line hoses for
any cracks or leaks. Replace as needed.
Fuel Evaporation System Filter
These mowers have a fuel evaporation system filter. This
filter must be checked and replaced every 300 hours or annu-
ally whichever comes first. Figure
Engine Oil and Filter
Check engine oil daily and after every 4 hours of operation.
Mower must be on a level surface when checking oil. Refer to
engine manual and maintenance schedule for oil recommen-
dation and capacities. Hustler
®
Motor Oil is recommended.
Change the engine oil and filter after the first 5 hours of
operation and then per the engine manufacturer’s recommen-
dations after that. If mower is being operated in extremely
dirty conditions, then it is recommended oil be changed more
frequently.
Draining the engine oil:
1.
Locate the oil drain valve on the lower right side of the
engine. Figure 4-7
2.
Locate the oil drain hose that was supplied with the
machine. Be sure to clean and clear it of debris that
might block the flow of the engine oil.
3.
Attach one end of the hose onto the oil drain valve nip-
ple. Make sure the hose is pushed all the way onto the
valve.
4.
Position the loose end of the hose so that it can drain
into a suitable oil drain container.

If the engine has been running and is up to operating
temperature, allow the engine to cool before chang-
ing the oil. Engine and engine oil will be very hot, so
be very careful when changing oil and wear the
appropriate protective gear to avoid being burned or
exposed to engine oil.
