Fuel and its vapors are extremely flammable and
explosive.
Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or death.

assembly or air filter removed.

cover (B).
2. To remove the filter (C), lift the end of the filter and
then pull the filter off the intake (D).
3. To loosen debris, gently tap the filter on a hard surface.
If the filter is excessively dirty, replace with a new
filter.

Then allow it to thoroughly air dry. Do not oil the pre-
cleaner.

Washing the Mower Deck
NOTE: The washout port allows you to connect a typical
garden hose to the left-hand side of the mower deck to
remove grass and debris from the underside.
WARNING
Before running the mower, make sure the hose is
properly connected and does not come into contact with
the blades. When the mower is running and the blades
are engaged, the person cleaning the mower deck must
be in the operator position, and there are no bystanders.
Failure to follow these precautions may result in serious
injury or death.
1. Place the tractor on a level surface.
2. Attach the quick disconnect (not included) (A, Figure
15) to garden hose (B) and connect to washout port
(C) on on either side of mower deck.
3. Run water to remove grass and debris from underside
of mower deck.
4. Turn the mower on and place in the highest cutting
position.
5. Stop the engine (see Stopping the Tractor and Engine).
6. Remove the garden hose and quick disconnect from
the washout port when completed.
7. Repeat for washout port on other side.
