Engine Oil Change

WARNING: Engine oil is a toxic substance.
Dispose of used oil properly. Contact your local
authorities for approved disposal methods or
possible recycling.
Change the engine oil and filter after the first 8 hours of
operation. Change the oil each subsequent 100 hours of
operation after the initial change.
1. Run the engine to warm the oil.
2. Park the mower on level ground.
3. Stop the engine, put the steering control levers in the
park position and remove the key.
4. Remove the oil drain screw, see figure 15, and drain
the oil into a suitable container while the engine is still
warm.
WARNING: Hot engine oil can cause severe
burns. Allow engine oil temperature to drop from
hot to warm before attempting to drain and
handle the oil.

HYDRAULIC SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
IMPORTANT: Avoid damage to hydraulic components as a
result of contamination. Be sure to wipe around the filler
neck and cap before removal of the hydraulic oil reservoir
cap. Do not open the oil reservoir cap when hot unless it is
absolutely necessary.
Check the reservoir daily for the proper fluid level.
The pump and motor units require fluid changes yearly or
every 250 hours whichever occurs first. The system filter
should be changed initially after the first 50 hours of
operation. The fluid and filter must be changed and the
system cleaned if the fluid would become contaminated with
dirt, water, etc.
NOTE: The integrated pump/motor units are equipped with
bypass valves. (See Moving the Unit with the Engine Off on
page 17.)
Changing Hydraulic Fluid
1. Park the machine on a level surface, stop the engine,
put the steering control levers in the park position and
remove the key.
2. Clean the area around the reservoir filler cap and
remove the filler cap from the reservoir.
3. To drain the hydraulic fluid, place a suitable container
under the hydraulic filter and remove it.
4. Place a thin coat of hydraulic oil on the gasket on the
oil filter. Before reinstalling, make sure mount area is
clean of debris.
5. Install the hydraulic oil filter onto the filter adapter.
6. Refill the hydraulic reservoir to the recommended
level. Reinstall the oil reservoir filler cap.
7. Clean up any fluid which may have spilled.
