7 MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION
en-76
7.10 AIR CLEANER ____________________________________________________________
Check the service indicator (A) each day. If the red band becomes visible in the
window, replace the primary filter element (D).
Only remove the safety filter element (E) when replacement is required. Removal
of the safety filter that is not necessary increases the risk of dust and other
particles to enter the engine. Replace the safety element every third change of the
primary element (D).
When service is needed, first clean the outside of the filter housing (B), release the
two clips and remove the cap (C). Remove the primary filter element (D) carefully.
Clean the inside of the filter housing. Make sure dust and other particles do not get
into the engine inlet hose.
Inspect the new element. Do not use a damaged element and never use an incorrect element.
Install the filter element. Make sure the element seats correctly. Press the button (G) to reset the service indicator.
Install the cap (C) onto the filter housing (B). Make sure the cap seals around the filter housing. The dust valve (F) on
the cap must be at the bottom of the filter. Fasten the cap with the two clips.
Check the air filter hose for wear or damage. Make sure the hose clamps are tight and hold the hose in position.
7.11 CHARGE THE BATTERY __________________________________________________________
Read the battery charger manual for specific instructions on the operation of the charger.
When possible, remove the battery from the mower before you charge the battery. If the battery is not sealed, check
and make sure the level of the electrolyte is above the plates in all of the cells.
Make sure the battery charger is turned OFF, then connect the battery charger to the battery terminals as specified in
the battery charger manual.
Always turn OFF the battery charger before you disconnect the battery charger from the battery terminals.
WARNING
Charge the battery in an area with good airflow. The battery can release hydrogen gas that is explosive. To prevent
an explosion, keep any device that can cause sparks or flames away from the battery.
When the battery charger is turned on, to prevent injury, stay away from the battery. A battery that is damaged can
cause an explosion.
