※ Wash the tractor cleanly and follow the
procedure as below.

non-painted metal to avoid corrosion. Keep the
tractor in a covered, dry and well-ventilated
place.
Temperature : 10℃ ~ 35℃ (50℉ ~ 95℉)
Humidity : 45% ~ 70%
z Place all controls, including electrical switches,
in neutral position and apply the wheel chocks to
the tires and disengage the parking brake.
z Check the lubricant level of each parts and if the
engine oil has exceeded 100 hours of work,
change the oil and run the engine for 5 minutes
at idle rpm.

coolant is anti-freeze solution, it is not necessary
to drain but check its density.
z Fill the fuel tank full with fuel.
z Loosen all drive belts and clean the air cleaner.
z Loosen the rubber plug (if fitted) under the clutch
chamber to drain water.

highest position to lubricate the internal cylinder.
