Checklist 

 

Ensure the unit has been maintained following the 
T3000i/T3100 Daily Checklist Quick Tip 

 

Grease all grease fittings on the machine 

(FIGURE 1)

 

A.

 

2 Front Wheel fittings (2011 and newer units will not have 
these fittings) 

B.

 

2 Front wheel spindles (All model years will have these fittings)  

C.

 

1 Front wheel pivot (All model years will have these fittings)  

D.

 

1 Idler arm for drive belt tensioner pulley (T3100’s do not

 have this fitting) 

E.

 

1 Steering Arm (2016 & Newer Models)

 

 

 

Check and clean your engine air filter.  To loosen debris, gently tap the filter on a hard surface.  If 
excessively dirty replace the filter. 

 

Clean carb linkage, choke control, and governor spring. Blow off the area with air (brake cleaner 
works as well) and then using a DRY LUBRICANT work the linkage back and forth  

(FIGURE 2)

 

 

Check air pressure in tires and inflate to marked PSI on tire 

 

Check your engine and transmission oil levels 

 

Check Steering cable tension. Adjust both sides evenly if needed. 

(See 

T3000/T3000i Service Quick Tip 

 Steering Cable Adjustment)

  

 

Inspect belts for wear 

 

Clean and inspect your Trim and broadcast nozzle.  Do not use metal 
objects to clean the nozzles as it can damage the tip and affect your 
spray pattern. 

 

Check all cables for smooth function (hopper gate, variable speed, 
throttle, and trim guard cable)
