Charging
WARNING! Batteries give off an explosive gas
while charging. Charge the battery in a well
ventilated area and keep away from an open flame
or pilot light as on a water heater, space heater,
furnace, clothes dryer or other gas appliances.
CAUTION: When charging your tractor's battery,
use only a charger designed for 12V lead-acid
batteries. Read your battery charger's Owner's
Manual prior to charging your tractor's battery.
Always follow its instructions and heed its warnings.
If your tractor has not been put into use for an extended period
of time, charge the battery as follows:
1. Set your battery charger to deliver a max of 10 amperes.
2. If your battery charger is automatic, charge the battery
until the charger indicates that charging is complete. If the
charger is not automatic, charge for no fewer than eight
hours.
Fuse
ill_ WARNING! Before servicing, repairing, or
inspecting, always disengage PTO, set parking
brake, stop engine and remove key to prevent
unintended starting.
A 20 Amp fuse is installed in your tractor's wiring harness to
protect the tractor's electrical system from damage caused by
excessive amperage.
If the electrical system does not function, or your tractor's engine
will not crank, first check to be certain that the fuse has not
blown. It is located under the hood, mounted behind the top of
the dash panel on the support bar.
i_ CAUTION:
Always use a replacement fuse with the
same amperage capacity as the blown fuse.
Tires
_ ARNING! Never exceed the maximum inflation
pressure shown on the sidewall of the tire.
Refer to the tire sidewall for exact tire manufacturer's
recommended or maximum psi. Do not overinflate.
Uneven tire pressure could cause the cutting deck to mow
unevenly.
Changingthe Transmission DriveBelt
Several components must be removed and special tools used in
order to change the tractor's transmission drive belt. See your
Cub Cadet dealer to have the transmission drive belt replaced.
