Fuel system
DANGER: Observe usual fuel handling precautions:
Do not smoke while refueling. Extinguish all ciga-
rettes, cigars, pipes andother sources of ignition.
Do not remove fuel cap or fill tank with engine run-
ning or while engine is hot. Clean up any gasoline
spills.
Allow engine to cool before storing machine inside a
building.
Keep fuel away from open flame or spark and store
machine away from open flame or spark or pilot light
such as on a water heater or other appliances.
Use extreme care when handling gasoline and other
fuels. They are extremely flammable and vapors are
explosive. A fire or explosion from gasoline can burn
you and others and can damage property.
Never refuel or drain the fuel from the machine
indoors.
Never attempt to start engine when there is a strong
odor of gasoline fumes present. Locate and correct
cause.
Store gasoline in an approved container and keep it
out of the reach of children. Never buy more than a
30 day supply of gasoline.
Always place gasoline containers on the ground away
from your vehicle before filling.
Do not fill gasoline containers inside a vehicle or on a
truck or trailer bed with interior carpets or plastic
truck bed liners. Always place gasoline containers on
the ground away from your vehicle before filling.
When practical, remove gas-powered equipment from
the truck or trailer and refuel the equipment with its
wheels on the ground. If this is not possible, then
refuel such equipment on the truck or trailer using a
portable container and not a gasoline dispenser noz-
zle. If a gasoline dispenser nozzle must be used, keep
the nozzle in contact with the rim of the fuel tank or
container opening at all times until fueling is com-
plete. Do not use a nozzle lock-open device.
Read and observe safety precautions elsewhere in this
manual.
WARNING:
Gasoline is harmful or fatal if swal-
lowed.
Long-term exposure to vapors can cause serious
injury and illness.
Avoid prolonged breathing of vapors.
Keep face away from nozzle and gas tank or fuel con-
tainer opening.
Keep gas away from eyes and skin.
If fuel is spilled on clothing, change clothing immedi-
ately.
The fuel tank is located in the tractor’s left fender.
Use regular unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 87 or
higher.
IMPORTANT:
Never use methanol, gasoline containing
methanol, or gasohol containing more than 10% ethanol because
the fuel system could be damaged. Do not mix oil with gaso-
line.
IMPORTANT:
Do not overfill the fuel tanks. The fuel
tanks should be filled no higher than 2” (5.08 cm) below the
tank’s fill neck.
Engine oil and filter
Check engine oil daily and after every 4 hours of operation.
Tractor must be setting level when checking oil. Refer to
engine manual and maintenance schedule for oil
recommendation and capacities.
Change the engine oil and filter after the first 5 hours of
operation, per the engine manufacturer’s recommendations after
that. If tractor is being operated in extremely dirty conditions,
then it is recommended oil be changed more frequently.
IMPORTANT:
When removing the oil filter take precautions to
minimize oil spillage on the exhaust system.
Attach the oil drain hose, furnished with the unit, to the oil
drain valve when draining the engine oil. Oil drain hose must
be removed after oil is drained.
IMPORTANT:
All oil drips or
spills must be cleaned off of the exhaust system before
operating the machine. Fig. 5-2
