Rider Maintenance Items WARNING Move the ground speed levers to START/PARK positions, engage the parking brake, turn the mower blades OFF, turn the ignition switch OFF, and wait for all moving parts to stop before accessing the engine compartment or performing any maintenance procedures. ACCESSING THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT Lift up on the back edge of the seat deck to access the engine compartment (see Figure 17). CLEAN DEBRIS FROM RIDER AND ENGINE COMPARTMENT Service Interval: Before each use. CAUTION: If debris is not removed from the engine compartment and other hot surfaces, it creates a fire hazard. Before starting the unit at the beginning of the mowing session, remove any grass clippings, dirt, leaves, or other debris from the unit. Also clean out the engine compartment. CLEAN DEBRIS FROM ENGINE COOLING AREAS AND AIR FILTER Service Interval: Before each use. CAUTION: If debris is not removed from the engine compartment and other hot surfaces, it creates a fire hazard. Before starting the unit at the beginning of the mowing session, lift the seat deck and clean any debris from the intake screen on top of the engine (A, Figure 18), exposed engine cooling fins, and around the air filter assembly. Also open the air filter cover (B) and remove any debris that has accumulated in the air filter compartment. CHECK TIRE PRESSURE Service Interval: 25 Hours. Tire pressure should be checked periodically, and maintained at the levels shown in Figure 19. Note that these pressures may differ slightly from the "Max Inflation" stamped on the side-wall of the tires. The pressures shown provide proper traction, improve cut quality, and extend tire life.
