WARNING
Never store the tractor with fuel in the tank indoors or
in poorly ventilated enclosures, where fuel fumes may
reach an open flame, spark, or pilot light as on a furnace,
water heater, clothes dryer, etc.
2. If storing the tractor for 30 days or more:
a. To prevent gum deposits from forming inside the
engine's carburetor and causing possible malfunction of
the engine, the fuel system must be either completely
emptied or the gasoline must be treated with a stabilizer
to prevent deterioration.
b. Using a fuel stabilizer for storage between 30 and 90 days:
• Read the product manufacturer's instructions
and recommendations.
• Add to clean, fresh gasoline the correct amount of
stabilizer for the capacity of the fuel system.
• Fill the fuel tank with treated fuel and run the
engine for 2-3 minutes to get stabilized fuel into
the carburetor.
• Fuel left in the fuel tank deteriorates and will cause
serious starting problems.
c. Emptying the fuel system for storage of more than
90 days:
• Prior to putting the tractor in storage, monitor
fuel consumption with the goal of running the fuel
tank empty.
• Run the engine until it begins to stall. Use the choke to
keep the engine running until all fuel in the carburetor
has been exhausted.
• Referring to the Engine Operator's Manual, drain the
fuel from the carburetor bowl.
3. Clean the engine and the entire tractor thoroughly.
NOTE: Using a pressure washer or garden hose is not
recommended for cleaning your tractor other than to
clean the underside of the deck. It may cause damage to
electrical components, spindles, pulleys, bearings or the
engine. The use of water will result in shortened life and
reduce serviceability.
4. Fully charge the battery, then disconnect the negative cable
at the battery to prevent possible discharge. Recharge the
battery periodically when in storage.
NOTE: Remove the battery if exposed to prolonged periods
of sub-freezing temperatures. Store in a cool, dry location
where temperatures are above freezing.
5. Lubricate all lubrication points.
PRODUCT CARE
REMOVING THE TRACTOR FROM STORAGE
1. Check the engine oil.
2. Fully charge the battery and inflate the tires to the
recommended pressure. See tire side wall for proper tire
inflation pressure.
3. Fill the fuel tank with clean, fresh gasoline.
4. Start the engine and allow to idle for a few minutes to ensure
engine is operating properly.
5. Drive the tractor without a load to make certain all the tractor
systems are functioning properly.
ADJUSTMENTS
Adjusting Deck Lift Pedal
1. Set the deck to the transport position.
2. Remove the hex bolt, washer and hex nut near the center of
the pedal assembly (Figure 30).
3. Position the pedal to the optimal position based on operator
preference (Figure 31).
4. Re-install the hardware previously removed and torque the
