Fuse
Fuses are installed to protect the trac-
tor’s electrical system from damage
caused by excessive amperage.
Always use the same capacity fuse for
replacement. Refer to the Specifica-
tions Chart. If the electrical system
does not function, check the fuses.
To replace a fuse, note the position of
the fuse and pull the old fuse from the
electical box.
Compare the suspect fuse with Figure
22 to determine if is good or bad.

Install the new fuse in the position
from which the old fuse was removed.
Off-Season Storage
If the machine is to be inoperative for
a period longer than 30 days, the fol-
lowing procedures are recommended:
WARNING: Never store the
tractor with fuel in the tank
indoors or in poorly venti-
lated enclosures, where fuel
fumes may reach an open
flame, spark or pilot light as
on a furnace, water heater,
clothes dryer, etc.
WARNING: 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, remove all gasoline from
thefuel tank as follows:
• Towards end of the season, monitor
fuel consumption with the goal of
running the fuel tank to empty.
• Remove the fuel cap and siphon the
the bulk of the fuel into an approved
container. Then run the engine until
it starts to falter and use the choke
to keep the engine running until all
fuel in the carburetor has been
exhausted.
• Remove the spark plugs and pour
one (1) ounce of engine oil through
the spark plug holes into the
cylinders. Crank the engine several
times to distribute the oil.
• Replace the spark plugs.
• Clean the engine and the entire
tractor thoroughly.
• Lubricate all lubrication points.
• Prepare the battery for storage.
• Protect the tires and seat from
sunlight. Regularly check the tires
for proper inflation.
NOTE: We do not recommend the use
of a pressure washer or garden hose
to clean your unit. They may cause
damage to electrical components;
spindles; pulleys; bearings; or the
engine. The use of water will result in
shortened life and reduce
serviceability.
