Drain old oil filters of all free-flowing oil prior 
to disposal. Place used oil in appropriate 
containers and dispose of it in accordance 
with laws in your area.

Transaxle (Transmission) Fluid Change

This transaxle is designed with an external filter for 
ease of maintenance. To ensure constant fluid quality 
levels and longer life, an oil filter change interval of 
every 200 hours is recommended.
The following procedure is performed with the 
transaxles installed in the mower and the mower on 
level ground. Apply the pump release valve for each 
transaxle and set the parking brake.
1.  Remove the three ¼" filter guard screws and filter 

guard. Clean any loose debris from around the 
perimeter of the filter.

2.  Place an oil drain pan (12" or more diameter and 

8 qt. capacity is optimal) beneath the oil filter. 
Remove the oil filter from the transaxle.

3.  After the oil has drained, wipe the filter base 

surface and apply a film of new oil to the gasket of 
the replacement filter.

4.  Install the new filter by hand, turning it three-

quarters to one full turn after the filter gasket 
contacts the filter base surface.

5.  Reinstall the filter guard. Torque screws to 

65 in/lbs. each.

6.  Repeat steps on the opposite side.
7.  Drain old oil filters of all free flowing oil prior to 

disposal. Place used oil in appropriate containers 
and dispose of it in accordance with laws in your 
area.

8.  Remove the top port plug (see illustration) from 

the left side and right side of the transaxles prior 
to filling with oil. This will allow the transaxles to 
vent during oil fill.

9.  Remove the cap from the transaxles’ expansion 

tank located on the vehicle frame.

1.  Filter guard
2.  Transaxle filter
3.  Top port plug

ZT-3400 filter change

10.  Fill with 20W50 motor oil until oil just appears 

at the bottom of each transaxles’ top port 
(approximately 2 quarts per transaxle, 4 quarts 
total). Install the top port lug into each transaxle 
as the oil level reaches the port.

11.  Install and torque the top port plugs to 180 in./lbs.
12.  Continue to fill the transaxles through the 

expansion tank until the FULL COLD line is 
reached (this will take approximately 23 additional 
ounces).

13.  Reinstall the expansion tank cap by hand. Be 

careful to not overtighten.

14.  Proceed to the purge procedure.
