Engine Cooling System - Model MS, MC, MT,
MTEFI
Air Intake System
To prevent engine overheating and possible engine
damage, clean grass clippings, chaff, and dirt from the
rotating engine air intake screen
after every 8 hours of
operation. In certain mowing conditions (dry grass,
leaves, tree “cotton”, etc.), it may be necessary to
check and clean the screen several times each day to
prevent engine overheating.
Engine Air Intake Screen - Model MS
Cylinder Head Cooling Fins - Model MC, MT, MTEFI
It is essential for performance and longevity of the air-
cooled engine to keep the cylinder head cooling fins
clean and free of obstruction. After
every 8 hours of
operation, check the performance of the cooling system
by starting the engine, holding a hand adjacent to the
cylinder head, and feeling the cooling airflow. If there is
little or no airflow, clean the cooling fins as described.
Every 100 hours, inspect and clean the cooling fins
(more often when operating in extremely dusty, dirty
conditions). Remove the two (2) cooling fin access
panels in the engine shroud and clean the cooling fins
and external surfaces using compressed air. Make
sure to reinstall the access panels before operating the
engine.
