Use and Care Manual

5. Wash the machine and apply wax to metal and plastic surfaces.
6. Run machine for ve minutes to dry belts and pulleys.
7. Apply light coat of engine oil to pivot and wear points to prevent
rust.
8. Lubricate grease points and check tire pressure.
Preparing Fuel and Engine For Storage
Fuel:
If you have been using “Stabilized Fuel,” add stabilized fuel to tank until
the tank is full.
NOTE: Filling the fuel tank reduces the amount of air in the fuel tank
and helps reduce deterioration of fuel.
If you are not using “Stabilized Fuel:”
1. Park machine safely in a well-ventilated area. (See Parking Safely
in the SAFETY section.)
NOTE: Try to anticipate the last time the machine will be used for the
season so very little fuel is left in the fuel tank.
2. Turn on engine and allow to run until it runs out of fuel.
3. For machines equipped with key switch, turn key to off position.
IMPORTANT: Stale fuel can produce varnish and plug carburetor
or injector components and affect engine performance.

4. Mix fresh fuel and fuel stabilizer in separate container. Follow
stabilizer instructions for mixing.
5. Fill fuel tank with stabilized fuel.
6. Run engine for a few minutes to allow fuel mixture to circulate
through carburetor on gas engine or fuel injectors on diesel engine.
Engine:
Engine storage procedure should be used when vehicle is not to be
used for longer than 60 days.
1. Change engine oil and lter while engine is warm.
2. Service air lter if necessary.
3. Clean debris from engine air intake screen.
4. On gas engines:
a. Remove spark plugs. Put specied amount of clean engine oil in
cylinder(s).

b. Install spark plugs, but do not connect spark plug wires.
c. Crank the engine ve or six times to allow oil to be distributed.
5. Clean the engine and engine compartment.
6. Remove battery.
7. Clean the battery and battery posts. Check the electrolyte level, if
your battery is not maintenance free.
8. Close fuel shut-off valve, if your machine is equipped.
9. Store the battery in a cool, dry place where it will not freeze.
NOTE: The stored battery should be recharged every 90 days.
10. Charge the battery.
IMPORTANT: Prolonged exposure to sunlight could damage the
hood surface. Store machine inside or use a cover if stored
outside.
11. Store the vehicle in a dry, protected place. If vehicle is stored
outside, put a waterproof cover over it.
Removing Machine From Storage
1. Check tire pressure.
2. Check engine oil level.
3. Check battery electrolyte level, if your battery is not maintenance
free. Charge battery if necessary.
4. Install battery.
5. On gas engines: Check spark plug gap. Install and tighten plugs to
specied torque.
6. Lubricate all grease points.
7. Open fuel shut-off valve, if your machine is equipped.
8. Run the engine 5 minutes without the mower or any attachments
running to allow oil to be distributed throughout engine.
