Maintenance Introduction
Regular maintenance is the best prevention for downtime
or premature failure. The following pages contain suggested
maintenance information and schedules which the operator/
mechanic should follow on a routine basis.
Remain alert for unusual noises, they could be signaling a
problem. Visually inspect the machine for any abnormal wear
or damage. A good time to detect potential problems is while
performing scheduled maintenance service. Correcting the
problem as quickly as possible is the best insurance.
Clear away heavy build-up of grease, oil and dirt, especially
in the engine compartment and under the seat platform
areas; minute dust particles are abrasive to close-tolerance
engine and hydraulic assemblies.
Daily inspect mower for grass clippings and wire and string
tangles. The underside of the mower deck will collect a build-
up of grass clippings and dirt, especially when grass is wet or
has high moisture content. This build-up will harden,
restricting blade and air movement and will probably show a
lesser quality of cut. Therefore it should be removed
routinely.
To do this it will be necessary to raise and block the deck,
using jack stands or blocks, in the full up position and scrape
the build-up from underneath.
Some repairs require the assistance of a trained service
mechanic and should not be attempted by unskilled
personnel. Consult your BigDog
®
Mowers service center
when assistance is needed.
