SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE
Safe Handling of Gasoline
1. Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes, and other
sources of ignition.
2. Use only approved gasoline containers.
3. Never remove the gas cap or add fuel with the
engine running. Allow the engine to cool before
refueling.
4. Never fuel the machine indoors.
5. Never store the machine or fuel container where
there is an open flame, spark, or pilot light such as
near a water heater or other appliance.
6. Never fill containers inside a vehicle or on a truck
bed with a plastic bed liner. Always place
containers on the ground away from your vehicle
before filling.
7. Remove gas-powered equipment from the truck or
trailer and refuel it on the ground. If this is not
possible, then refuel such equipment on a trailer
with a portable container, rather than from a
gasoline dispenser nozzle.
8. Keep nozzle in contact with the rim of the fuel tank
or container opening at all times until fueling is
complete. Do not use a nozzle lock-open device.
9. If fuel is spilled on clothing, change clothing
immediately.
10. Never over-fill the fuel tank. Replace gas cap and
tighten securely.
11. Use extra care in handling gasoline and other
fuels. They are flammable and vapors are
explosive.
12. If fuel is spilled, do not attempt to start the engine
but move the machine away from the area of
spillage and avoid creating any source of ignition
until fuel vapors have dissipated.
13. Replace all fuel tank caps and fuel container caps
securely.
Service & Maintenance
1. Never run the unit in an enclosed area where
carbon monoxide fumes may collect.
2. Keep nuts and bolts, especially blade attachment
bolts, tight and keep equipment in good condition.
3. Never tamper with safety devices. Check their
proper operation regularly and make necessary
repairs if they are not functioning properly.
4. Keep unit free of grass, leaves, or other debris
build-up. Clean up oil or fuel spillage. and remove
any fuel-soaked debris. Allow machine to cool
before storage.
5. If you strike an object, stop and inspect the
machine. Repair, if necessary, before restarting.
6. Never make adjustments or repairs with the engine
running.
7. Check grass catcher components and the
discharge guard frequently and replace with
manufacturer’s recommended parts, when
necessary.
8. Mower blades are sharp. Wrap the blade or wear
gloves, and use extra caution when servicing them.
9. Check brake operation frequently. Adjust and
service as required.
10. Maintain or replace safety and instructions labels,
as necessary.
11. Do not remove the fuel filter when the engine is hot
as spilled gasoline may ignite. Do not spread fuel
line clamps further than necessary. Ensure clamps
grip hoses firmly over the filter after installation.
12. Do not use gasoline containing METHANOL,
gasohol containing more than 10% ETHANOL,
gasoline additives, or white gas because
engine/fuel system damage could result.
13. If the fuel tank must be drained, it should be
drained outdoors.
14. Replace faulty silencers/mufflers.
15. Maintain or replace safety and instruction labels as
necessary.
16. Use only factory authorized replacement parts
when making repairs.
17. Always comply with factory specifications on all
settings and adjustments.
18. Only authorized service locations should be
utilized for major service and repair requirements.
19. Never attempt to make major repairs on this unit
unless you have been properly trained. Improper
service procedures can result in hazardous
operation, equipment damage and voiding of
manufacturer’s warranty.
20. On multiple blade mowers, take care as rotating
one blade can cause other blades to rotate.
21. Do not change engine governor settings or over-
speed the engine. Operating the engine at
excessive speed can increase the hazard of
personal injury.
22. Disengage drive attachments, stop the engine,
remove the key, and disconnect the spark plug
wire(s) before: clearing attachment blockages and
chutes, performing service work, striking an object,
or if the unit vibrates abnormally. After striking an
object, inspect the machine for damage and make
repairs before restarting and operating the
equipment.
23. Never place hands near the moving parts, such as
a hydro pump cooling fan, when the tractor is
running. (Hydro pump cooling fans are typically
located on top of the transaxle).
24. Units with hydraulic pumps, hoses, or motors:
WARNING: Hydraulic fluid escaping under
pressure may have sufficient force to penetrate
skin and cause serious injury. If foreign fluid is
injected into the skin it must be surgically removed
within a few hours by a doctor familiar with this
form of injury or gangrene may result. Keep body
and hands away from pin holes or nozzles that
eject hydraulic fluid under high pressure. Use
paper or cardboard, and not hands, to search for
leaks. Make sure all hydraulic fluid connections
are tight and all hydraulic hoses and lines are in
good condition before applying pressure to the
system. If leaks occur, have the unit serviced
immediately by your authorized dealer.
25. WARNING: Stored energy device. Improper
release of springs can result in serious personal
injury. Springs should be removed by an
authorized technician.
26. Models equipped with an engine radiator:
WARNING: Stored energy device. To prevent
serious bodily injury from hot coolant or steam
blow-out, never attempt to remove the radiator cap
while the engine is running. Stop the engine and
wait until it is cool. Even then, use extreme care
when removing the cap.
