Tires
WARNING!
Never exceed the maximum inflation
pressure shown on the sidewall of the tire.
The recommended operating tire pressure is:
•
Approximately 10 psi for the rear tires
•
Approximately 14 psi for the front tires
IMPORTANT:
Refer to the tire sidewall for exact tire
manufacturer's recommended or maximum psi. Do not over-
inflate. Uneven tire pressure could cause the cutting deck to mow
unevenly.
Off Season Storage
WARNING!
Never store lawn tractor with fuel in
tank indoors or in poorly ventilated areas where fuel
fumes may reach an open flame, spark, or pilot light
as on a furnace, water heater, clothes dryer, or gas
appliance.
Preparing the Engine
IMPORTANT:
Fuel left in the fuel tank during warm weather
deteriorates and will cause serious starting problems.
To prevent gum deposits from forming inside the engine's
carburetor and causing possible malfunction of the engine, the
fuel system must be either completely emptied, or the gasoline
must be treated with a stabilizer to prevent deterioration.
1.
If using a fuel stabilizer:
•
Read the product manufacturer's instructions and
recommendations.
•
Add to clean, fresh gasoline the correct amount of
stabilizer for the capacity of the fuel system.
•
Fill the fuel tank with treated fuel and run the engine
for 2-3 minutes to get stabilized fuel into the carburetor.
2.
If emptying the fuel system:
•
Do not drain fuel when the engine is hot. Allow the
engine adequate time to cool. Drain fuel into an
approved container outdoors, away from open flame.
•
Drain any large volume of fuel from the tank by
disconnecting the fuel line from the in-line fuel filter
near the engine. See the complete instructions for
Draining the Fuel in this section.
WARNING!
Gasoline is extremely flammable and
can be explosive under certain conditions. Drain
gasoline before storing the equipment for extended
periods. Drain fuel only into an approved container
outdoors, away from an open flame. Allow engine to
cool. Extinguish cigarettes, cigars, pipes, and other
sources of ignition prior to draining fuel. Store
gasoline in an approved container in safe location.
•
Reconnect the fuel line and run the engine until it starts
to falter, then use the choke to keep the engine running
until all fuel in the carburetor has been exhausted.
•
Disconnect the fuel line and drain any remaining
gasoline from the system.
WARNING!
Gasoline is a toxic substance. Dispose
of gasoline properly. Contact your local authorities
for approved disposal methods.
•
Remove the spark plug and pour one ounce of engine
oil through the spark plug hole into the cylinder. Crank
the engine several times to distribute the oil. Replace
the spark plug.
Draining the Fuel
1.
Locate the fuel filter, which is located on the left side of the
engine, and may be attached to the engine with a tie strap.
2.
Cut the tie strap, if present, then pinch the in-line clamp
on the fuel filter with a pair of pliers, slide the clamp up the
fuel line.
3.
Pull the fuel line free from the filter and place the open end
of the line into an approved container to drain the fuel.
Preparing the Lawn Tractor
1.
Clean and lubricate tractor thoroughly as described in the
Lubrication instructions.
2.
Do not use a pressure washer or garden hose to clean your
unit.
3.
Store mower in a dry, clean area. Do not store next to
corrosive materials, such as fertilizer.
