Engine

Lubrication

Only use high-quality detergent oil
rated with API service classification
SF-SJ. Select oil SAE viscosity grade
according to your expected operating
temperature.
Note: Check your engine oil level
frequently to avoid possible engine
damage from running low on oil.
Change the oil after every 25 hours of
operation or at least
once a year if the tractor is not used
for 25 hours in one year. Check the
crankcase oil level before starting the
engine and after each eight (8) hours of
operation. Tighten oil fill cap/dipstick
securely each time you check the oil
level.

Changing engine oil

Establish temperature range expected
before oil change. All oil must meet API
service classification SG-SL.
Be sure tractor is on level surface.
✔
✔ Oil will drain more freely when
warm.
Catch oil in a suitable container.

Air filter

Your engine will not run properly using a
dirty air filter. Clean more often when
working in very dusty places. See Engine
