MAINTENANCE
AIR CLEANER
Clean and replace the air cleaner element as speci-
fied in the service chart. Uneven running, lack of
power or black exhaust may indicate a dirty air
cleaner.
1. Unclamp end cover C and remove existing
cleaner element A .
2. Insert new element A and replace cover C .
Ensure breathing port B is pointing down and
towards the front of the tractor.
CLEANING MACHINE
Clean the machine after use. The machine will run
cooler and last longer if kept free of clippings and
other debris. A clean machine also reduces the risk
of fire due to accumulation of combustible debris and
chaff
Brush or blow clippings and debris off the cutterdeck
and engine deck.
WASHING MACHINE
CAUTION: Improperly washing a machine can cause
water to enter bearings and other components. This
can greatly reduce component life.
– Do not use a pressure washer. Do not direct
water at bearings or seals. High pressure water
can blow past seals ad enter seal bearings.
– Allow the machine to cool down before washing.
Water on a warm machine can be sucked into
sealed bearings as they cool.
– Avoid getting electrical connections wet. Water
can cause electrical faults and corrosion of elec-
trical components.
