COOLING SYSTEM
Remove and clean radiator screen regularly. A
dirty screen will cause the engine to overheat.
Do not use high pressure water or
steam to clean the engine or drive
compartment. Water and clean-
ing detergent may damage electrical
components and terminals, possibly
leading to component and safety cir-
cuit failure.
Use a vacuum cleaner or air blower to remove
foreign material from the engine and drive com-
partment.
Check engine coolant when the engine is cool. If
coolant is required, fi ll expansion tank to proper
level through radiator. A solution of 50% anti-
freeze and 50% water must be used (freezing
point about –34° F [–36° C]). Do not use 100%
antifreeze or severe damage will occur.
WARNING
CAUTION
CAUTION
Always wear safety glasses and ear
protection when performing any
maintenance function that could cause
injury to eyes or ears.
Read all safety information on pages 6 through
10.
Lower attachment to ground, shut off
tractor engine, remove key and wires
to fuel solenoid before performing any
maintenance.
LUBRICATION
Do not let excess grease collect on or around
parts, particularly when operating in sandy ar-
eas.
The chart gives the frequency of lubrication
in operating hours based on normal operating
conditions. Severe or unusual conditions may
require more frequent lubrication.
Use an SAE multipurpose type grease for all
locations shown. Be sure to clean fi tting thor-
oughly before using grease gun.
For H
