Cleaning and Storage
1.
Disengage the power take off (PTO), set the
parking brake, and turn the ignition key to
“OFF” to stop the engine. Remove the key.
2.
Remove grass clippings, dirt, and grime from the
external parts of the entire machine, especially
the engine. Clean dirt and chaff from the outside
of the engine’s cylinder head fins and blower
housing.
IMPORTANT: You can wash the machine
with mild detergent and water. Do not
pressure wash the machine. Avoid excessive
use of water, especially near the control panel,
and engine.
3.
Check the brake; refer to Brake, page 28.
4.
Service the air cleaner; refer to Air Cleaner,
page NO TAG.
5.
Grease the machine; refer to Greasing and
Lubrication, page 26.
6.
Change the crankcase oil and filter; refer to
Engine Oil, page 23.
7.
Change the hydraulic system oil and filter; refer
to Change Hydraulic Oil and Filter, page 34.
8.
Remove the battery from the chassis, check the
electrolyte level, and charge fully; refer to
Battery, page 37. Do not connect the battery
cables to the battery posts during storage.
IMPORTANT: The battery must be fully
charged to prevent it from freezing and being
damaged at temperatures below 0
°
C (32
°
F).
A fully charged battery maintains its charge
for about 50 days at temperatures lower than
4
°
C (40
°
F). If temperatures will be above
4
°
C (40
°
F), check the electrolyte level in the
battery and charge every 30 days.
9.
Check the tire pressure; refer to Tire Pressure,
page 29.
10. During long-term storage, either drain gasoline
from the fuel tank (step 11) or add a fuel
stabilizer/conditioner additive to a full tank of
gasoline (step A).
11. Drain gasoline from the fuel tank. After fuel is
drained, start the engine and let it idle until all
gasoline is consumed and the engine stops. This
eliminates gum-like buildup in the fuel system,
which causes hard starting. Try to start the
engine two more times to assure that no gasoline
is in the fuel system.
A.
Add the correct amount of a fuel
stabilizer/conditioner to a full tank of
gasoline.
Note:
Stabilizer/conditioners normally
preserve gasoline for six to eight
months.
