BATTERY
Your tractor
has a battery charging
system

for normal use. However,
periodic
charging
of the battery with an au-
tomotive
charger will extend its life.
- Keep battery
and terminals
clean.
• Keep battery
bolts tight.
o Keep small vent holes open.
• Recharge
at 6-10 amperes
for 1 hour.
NOTE:
The original
equipment
battery on
your
tractor
is maintenance
free.
Do not
attempt to open or remove
caps or covers,
Adding
or checking
level of electrolyte
is
not necessary.

V-BELTS
Check V-belts for deterioration
and wear after

and replace if neces-
sary. The belts are not adjustable.
Replace
belts if they begin to slip from wear.
TRANSAXLE COOLING
The transmission fan and cooling fins should
be kept clean to ensure proper cooling.
Do not attempt to clean fan or transmission
while engine is running or while the trans-
mission is hot, To prevent possible damage
to seals, do not use high pressure water or
steam to clean transaxle.
• Inspect cooling fan to Ensure fan blades
are intact and clean,
• lnspectcoolingfinsfordirt,
grassctippings
and other materials. Toprevent damage to
seals, do not use compressed air or high
pressure sprayer to clean cooling fins.
TRANSAXLE
PUMP FLUID

fluid maintenance is not required for the life
of the transaxle. Should thetransaxle ever
leak or require servicing, contact your near-
est Sears or other qualified service center.
ENGINE
LUBRICATION
only use high quality detergent oil rated with
API service classification SG-SL. Selectthe
oil's SAE viscosity grade according to your
expected operating temperature.
NOTE:
Although
multi-viscosity
oils (5W30,
t0W30 etc.) improve starting in cold weather,
they will result in increased
oil consumption
when used above 32°F/0°0.
Check your
engine oil level more frequentlyto
avoid pos-
sible engine damage from running low on oil.
Changethe
oil after every 50 hours of opera-
tion or at least once a year if the tractor is
not used for 50 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.
TO CHANGE ENGINE OIL
Determine 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.
