• Si el césped está demasiado alto, se debe
segar dos veces para reducir la carga y los
posibles peligros de incendio debido a los
recortes secos. Haga el primer corte re la ti va-
men te alto; el segundo a la altura deseada.
• No siegue el césped cuando está mojado. El
césped mojado taponará la segadora y dejará
montones indeseables. Per mi ta que se seque
el césped antes de segarlo.
• Siempre opere el motor con una aceleración
completa cuan do siegue para asegurarse
de conseguir un mejor ren di mien to y una
descarga apropiada de los materiales. Regule
la velocidad de recorrido seleccionando un
cambio lo su fi cien te men te bajo para obtener
un rendimiento de corte de parte de su sega-
dora y también la calidad del corte deseada.
• Cuando opere con accesorios, seleccione una
velocidad de recorrido que se acomode al ter-
reno y le permita obtener el mejor rendimiento
del accesorio que se está usando.
CONSEJOS PARA SEGAR
• NO use cadenas de llanta cuando la carcasa
de la cortadora de césped esté colocada en
el tractor.
• La segadora debe estar nivelada en forma
adecuada para obtener el mejor rendimiento
al segar. Vea “PARA NIVELAR LA CAJA DE
LA SEGADORA” en la sección de Servicio y
Ajustes de este manual.
• El lado izquierdo de la segadora se debe usar
para recorte.
• Maneje de modo que los recortes se desc-
arguen en el área que ya ha sido cortada.
Mantenga el área de corte a la derecha del
tractor. Esto producirá una distribución más
pareja de los recortes y un corte más uniforme.
• Al segar las área grandes, empiece girando a
la derecha de modo que los recortes se des-
carguen, alejándose de los arbustos, cercos,
entradas de automóviles, etc. Después de una
o dos vueltas, siegue en la dirección opuesta,
haciendo virajes a la izquierda, hasta que
termine.

fuel line sec tions.
2. Place new fuel filter in position in fuel line
with arrow pointing towards carburetor.
3. Be sure there are no fuel line leaks and
clamps are properly positioned.
4. Immediately wipe up any spilled gasoline.
CLEAN AIR SCREEN
The air screen is over the air intake blower
located on top of engine. The air screen
must be kept free of dirt and chaff to prevent
engine dam age from overheating. Clean with
a wire brush or compressed air to re move
dirt and stubborn dried gum fibers.
ENGINE OIL FILTER
Replace the engine oil filter every sea son or
every other oil change if the tractor is used
more than 100 hours in one year.
NOTE: If needed, remove lower dash covers
using steps from "Lower dash cover removal"
section of this manual.
11. Use gauge on oil fill cap/dipstick for
checking level. Insert dipstick into the
tube and rest the oil fill cap on the tube.
Do not thread the cap onto the tube when
taking reading. Keep oil at “FULL” line
on dipstick. Tighten cap onto the tube
securely when finished.
MUFFLER
Inspect and replace corroded muffler and
spark arrester (if equipped) as it could create
a fire hazard and/or dam age.
SPARK PLUG(S)
Replace spark plug(s) at the beginning of each
mowing season or after every 100 hours of
operation, whichever occurs first. Spark plug
type and gap setting are shown in “PROD UCT
SPEC I FI CA TIONS” section of this manual.
AIR FILTER
Your engine will not run properly using a
dirty air filter. Clean the foam pre-cleaner
after every 25 hours of op er a tion or every
season. Service paper cartridge every
100 hours of operation or every season,
whichever occurs first.
Service air cleaner more often under dusty
conditions.
1. Remove cover.
TO SERVICE PRE-CLEANER
2. Wash it in liquid detergent and water.
3. Squeeze it dry in a clean cloth.
4. Saturate it in engine oil. Wrap it in
clean, absorbent cloth and squeeze to
remove excess oil.
NOTE: If very dirty or damaged, replace
pre-cleaner.
TO SER VICE CARTRIDGE
1. Clean cartridge by tap ping gen tly on
flat surface. If very dirty or damaged,
replace cartridge.
2. Reinstall precleaner cartridge, cover
and secure.
IMPORTANT: Petroleum solvents, such
as kerosene, are not to be used to clean
the cartridge. They may cause de te ri o ra-
tion of the cartridge. Do not oil cartridge.
Do not use pres sur ized air to clean or dry
car tridge.
ENGINE COOLING SYSTEM
To ensure proper cooling, make sure the
grass screen, cooling fins, and other exter-
nal surfaces of the engine are kept clean
at all times.
Every 100 hours of operation (more often
under extremely dusty, dirty conditions),
remove the blower housing and other cooling
shrouds. Clean the cooling fins and external
surfaces as necessary. Ensure the cooling
shrouds are reinstalled.
NOTE: Operating the engine with a blocked
grass screen, dirty or plugged cooling fins,
and/or cooling shrouds re moved will cause
engine damage due to overheating.
