Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) System -

EFI Models

EFI is an electronically-controlled fuel management system

which is monitored by an Electronic Control Unit (ECU). A

Malfunction Indicator Lamp (M.I.L.) will illuminate if problems

or faults are detected. Servicing by an authorized dealer is

necessary.

 CAUTION

Do not disconnect or reconnect ECU wiring harness

connector or any individual components with the ignition

switch in the "ON" position. This can send a damaging

voltage spike through the ECU.
Unplug harness from ECU before performing any welding

on equipment.

Fuse Location and Identification

The electrical system for this unit is equipped with two

replaceable fuses. See the chart below for the circuit,

amperage, and approximate location of the fuses.

Check / Fill Transmission Oil Level

This unit is equipped with two transmission oil tanks. One

transmission oil tank only supplies oil to one transmission.

The level of oil in both transmission tanks must be checked,

and if necessary, filled.

Oil Type:

 SAE 20W-50 motor oil

1. Locate the transmission oil tanks (B, Figure 24) by raising

the seat plate of the unit.

2. Check the oil level when the unit is cold. The oil should be

up to the "FULL COLD" mark (A) on the transmission oil

tanks (B). If the oil is below this level, proceed to step #3.

24

3. Before removing the tank cap (C), make sure that the

area around the tank cap and fill neck of the tank is free

of dust, dirt, and other debris. Remove the tank caps.

4. Add oil up to the "FULL COLD" mark.
5. Re-install the tank cap.
6. After adding oil to the tanks, it may be necessary to purge

air from the hydraulic system. If the unit is not driving

properly perform the 

Purging the Air from the Hydraulic

System

 procedure.

Purging the Air from the Hydraulic

System

Due to the effects air has on efficiency in hydraulic drive

systems, it is critical that it be purged from the system.

These purge procedures should be implemented any time a

hydraulic system has been opened to facilitate maintenance

or any additional oil has been added to the system.
The resulting symptoms of air in the hydraulic system may be:

• Noisy operation.
• Lack of power or drive after short term operation.
• High operation temperature and excessive expansion of

oil.

Before starting, make sure the transaxles/transmissions are

at the proper oil levels. If it is not, fill to the specifications

outlined in the 

Check / Fill Transmission Oil Level

 procedure.

Purging Air from the Hydraulic System:

1. Chock the front wheels to prevent the machine from

rolling. Raise the rear of the machine so that the vehicle’s

rear tires do not contact the ground. Position jack stands

under the rear bumper of the machine to secure it.

2. Open the transaxle’s bypass valves (see 

Pushing the

Rider by Hand

 for the location and function of the bypass

valves), start the engine, release the parking brake, and

slowly move the zero-turn rider’s ground speed control

levers in both forward and reverse directions (5 to 6
