Pre-Maintenance
Procedures
Do not tilt the machine unless it is necessary. If you
tilt the machine, engine oil could enter the cylinder
head of the engine, and hydraulic fluid could leak from
the cap located on top of the tank. These leaks may
result in expensive repairs to the machine. To perform
service under the deck, lift the machine with a hoist or
a small crane.
Maintenance Safety
•
Before adjusting, cleaning, repairing, or leaving
the machine, do the following:
– Park the machine on a level surface.
– Move the throttle switch to the low-idle position.
– Ensure that the traction is in neutral.
– Engage the parking brake.
– Shut off the engine.
– Wait for all moving parts to stop.
– Allow machine components to cool before
performing maintenance.
•
If possible, do not perform maintenance while the
engine is running. Keep away from moving parts.
•
Use jack stands to support the machine or
components when required.
•
Carefully release pressure from components with
stored energy.
