To replace the engine oil If the engine is cold, start the engine for 1-2 minutes before you drain the engine oil. This makes the engine oil warm and faster to drain. WARNING: Do not operate the engine for more than 1-2 minutes before you drain the engine oil. The engine oil becomes very hot and can cause burn injuries. Let the engine become cool before you drain the engine oil. WARNING: If you spill engine oil on your body, clean with soap and water. 1. Park the product on level ground and stop the engine. 2. Engage the parking brake. Refer to To engage and disengage the parking brake on page 12. 3. Remove all dirt around the oil tank cap. 4. Remove the oil tank cap and the dipstick. 5. Find the drain hose at the right rear part of the engine. 6. Put a container below the oil drain hose. 7. Remove the oil drain plug. 8. Let the oil run out into the container. 9. Replace and install the oil drain plug. 10. Fill with new oil and do a check of the engine oil level. Refer to To do a check of the engine oil level on page 22. 11. Install the oil tank cap and the dipstick. Note: For safe disposal of used engine oil, refer to Disposal on page 27. To remove air from the hydrostatic system You must remove air from the hydrostatic system regularly to prevent high noise operation, high operation temperature, component damage, excessive expansion of hydraulic oil, and decrease of the drive. The first time that air is removed from the hydrostatic system, the drive wheels must be set above the ground. You must also remove air from the hydrostatic system each time the hydrostatic system has been opened for maintenance and when hydraulic oil has been added. 1. Make sure that the hydraulic oil level is correct. 2. Disengage the parking brake. 3. Disengage the drive system. Refer to To disengage and engage the drive system on page 12. 4. Start the engine and apply fast idle speed. Refer to Throttle control on page 4. 5. Slowly move the control levers forward and rearward approximately 5 or 6 times. When air is removed from the hydrostatic system, the hydraulic oil level will decrease. 6. Set the throttle control to idle speed. Refer to Throttle control on page 4. 7. Engage the drive system. Refer to To disengage and engage the drive system on page 12. 8. Slowly move the control levers forward and rearward for 5 or 6 times. 9. Stop the engine. 10. Do a check of the hydraulic oil level and fill hydraulic oil if it is necessary. 11. If it is necessary, do the above steps again until all air has been removed from the hydrostatic system. When the product operates correctly, all air has been removed from the hydrostatic system. Lubrication, general information • Remove the ignition key to prevent accidental movements during lubrication. • Clean the area before you lubricate a part on the product. • Use oil when you lubricate with an oil can. • When you lubricate with grease, use a chassis or ball bearing grease that prevents corrosion. Remove unwanted grease after lubrication. • Lubricate 2 times a week if you operate the product daily. • Do not spill lubricant on the drive belts or the grooves of the belt pulleys. If you do spill, clean with alcohol. If the friction between the drive belt and the pulley is not sufficient after you clean with alcohol, replace the drive belt. CAUTION: Do not use gasoline or other petroleum products to clean drive belts. 2060 - 001 - 07.02.2023 23
