at bearing housings and seals.

mark.
Drain and refill annually. Remove the radiator cap, open the
engine block drain and the radiator drain. Empty and clean
the recovery bottle.
Mix clean water with ethylene glycol based anti-freeze for
the coldest ambient temperature. Read and follow the
instructions on the anti-freeze container and engine manual.
Keep radiator air passages clean. Use compressed air (30
psi maximum) to clean the fins.
Check and tighten the fan belt. Replace clamps and hoses
every two years.
If you have to add coolant more than once a month, or add
more than one quart at a time, have a authorized Textron
Turf Care And Specialty Products Dealer check the cooling
system.

chocks in front of and behind the wheels that are not
raised.
