MAINTENANCE
Caster Wheels
Check at 200 hour intervals. Check that wheels
turn freely. If wheels do not turn freely, take the
unit to a dealer for service.
Foam lled tires or solid tires will void the
warranty.
Removal and installation
Remove nut and caster bolt. Pull the wheel out of
the yoke and take care of the spacers. Install in
reverse order. Tighten caster bolt.
lower the front. Adjust nuts until rear of mower
deck is positioned level to 3,2 mm higher in
the rear than the side-to-side measurement.
NOTE: This will position the mower deck in a
standard measurement position. Depending on
the type of grass being mowed or environmental
conditions, additional adjustments may be
required to get the desired cut.
Cleaning
Regular cleaning, especially under the mower
deck, will increase the machine’s life-span. Clean
the machine directly after use (after it is cool,
before the debris sticks. Do not ush hot surfaces
with cold water.
Do not spray water on the top of the mower deck.
Use compressed air to clean the top side of the
mower deck. Do not use a high pressure washer
or steam cleaner. Avoid spraying engine and
electrical components with water.
Clean the underside of the deck with normal
water pressure. Attach the quick connect (from
the accessory packet) to a garden hose. After
mowing, snap the hose to the clean out port and
turn on water supply.
Restart the mower and engage the blades to use
the turning action to wash away debris. Make
sure the hose is away from the mower blades.
CAUTION! Use protective glasses
when cleaning and washing.
Anti-scalp Rollers
Anti-scalp rollers are correctly adjusted when
they are slightly off of the ground when the deck
is at the desired cutting height in the operating
position. Anti-scalp rollers keep the deck in the
proper position to help prevent scalping in most
terrain conditions.
The anti-scalp rollers can be set in three
positions:
• Upper 38 mm -63 mm grass
• Middle 63 mm -102 mm grass
• Lower 102 mm -152 mm grass.
The rollers must be approximately 6,4 mm from
the ground.
Hardware
Check daily. Do an inspection of the machine for
loose or missing hardware.
