FILLING FUEL TANK

WARNING: AVOID INJURY.

A Read and understand entire

Safety section before

proceeding.

To add fuel to the fuel tank:

1. Clean fuel caps and surrounding area to

prevent dust, dirt, and debris from

entering fuel tanks.

2. Remove fuel caps.

IMPORTANT: Refer to Engine Manual for

correct type and grade of fuel.

3. Fill fuel tank to the bottom of filler neck.

See SPECIFICATIONS on page 45 for

fuel tank capacity.

IMPORTANT: DO NOT OVERFILL! This

equipment and/or its engine may include

evaporative emissions control system

components, required to meet EPA and/or

CARB regulations, that will only function

properly when the fuel tank has been filled to

the recommended level. Overfilling may

cause permanent damage to evaporative

emissions control system components. Filling

to the recommended level ensures a vapor

gap required to allow for fuel expansion. Pay

close attention while filling the fuel tank to

ensure that the recommended fuel level

inside the tank is not exceeded. Use a

portable gasoline container with an

appropriately sized dispensing spout when

filling the tank. Do not use a funnel or other

device that obstructs the view of the tank

filling process.

4. Replace fuel cap and tighten.

5. ALWAYS clean up spilled fuel.

GASOLINE

IMPORTANT: ALWAYS use gasoline that

meets the following guidelines:

Clean, fresh gasoline.

A minimum of 87 octane/87 AKI (91

RON). High altitude use may require a

different octane. Consult your engine

manual.

Gasoline with up to 10% ethanol

(gasohol) or up to 10% MTBE (methyl

tertiary butyl ether) is acceptable.

Use of any gasoline other than those

approved above will void the engine

warranty. If the pumps are not marked

for the content of alcohol or ethers,

check ethanol and MTBE levels with

the fuel supplier.

Do not modify the fuel system to use

different fuels.

Never mix oil and gasoline.

Fuel Stabilizer

Gasoline left in the fuel system for extended

periods without a stabilizer will deteriorate,

resulting in gum deposits in the system.

These deposits can damage the carburetor

and the fuel hoses, filter and tank. Prevent

deposits from forming in the fuel system

during storage by adding a quality fuel

stabilizer to the fuel. Follow the

recommended mix ratio found on the fuel

stabilizer container.

Mounting and Dismounting Safely

DO NOT step on either side of the mower

deck when mounting or dismounting the

power unit. Step over the deck when

mounting or dismounting.

PRE-START INSPECTION

CAUTION: Make sure all

hardware is tight, all safety

devices are in place and all

adjustments are made correctly.

Safe operation is the responsibility of the

operator. The operator MUST be familiar with

the mower and power unit controls, how they

work, and all safety precautions BEFORE

starting operation.

IMPORTANT: Inspect the mowing blade bolts

daily, or whenever a blade has been

removed. Torque is 110- 130 Ibf-ft. (150 -

177 N.m).

Make sure all safety shields are in

place and secured properly.

Make sure the operator is instructed

on correct and safe operation of the

power unit and related attachments

and implements.

Check engine and hydraulic reservoir

oil and fill as necessary.

Check the pump belt and drive belt

tension and adjust as necessary.

Ensure air intake screens are clear of

debris to provide maximum engine

cooling.

Inspect tires, tire pressure and wheel

bolt torque. Look for external signs of

leakage and correct before operating

the mower. Check steering control

levers for looseness and correct

position.

Check for adequate fuel supply. It is

recommended that the fuel tank be filled

following each day's use to reduce

condensation and provide a full tank for

next use.
