apart certain components and is more difficult than normal preventive maintenance).
1000 Hour Maintenance (Every 1000 Hours) (If you operate your tractor less than 125 hours per year, you
may want to consider the 1000 Hour Maintenance every 8 years.)
1. Complete Shift, 50 Hour, 250 Hour, and, 500 Hour maintenance.
2. Clean the gathered carbon in the silencer and exhaust manifold by removing the silencer and
running water through it (Note: make sure the silencer is completely dry before reinstalling).
3. After the maintenance has been done, run the tractor for a short time to make sure that every
part is in normal operating condition. Recheck fluid levels.

Maintenance for Long Term Storage
If the tractor is to be in long term storage (3 months or more), you should fully examine mechanical
condition and follow the steps listed below.
1. Store the tractor in dry shelter if possible. If storing in the open air for limited time, cover the
tractor with a tarp.
2. Clean the outside of the tractor, wax painted surfaces and lubricate each lubrication point with
grease.
3. Check antifreeze level and protection in the cooling system.
4. Remove the battery for storage or disconnect the battery and put a slow trickle charge on the
battery.
5. Cover the exhaust system opening to keep out all water, dust, and “critters.”
6. Support the front and rear wheels so full weight is not on the tires.
7. Start the engine to run for 20 minutes every three months to insure the proper lubrication of
seals, gaskets, and internal engine parts.
Start the tractor and let it run for at
least 20 minutes every three months.
