CLEANING
Clean engine, battery, seat, finish, etc. of

Keep finished surfaces and wheels free
of all gasoline, oil, etc.
Protect painted surfaces with automotive

or pressure washer to clean your tractor
unless the engine and transmission are
covered to keep water out. Water in engine
or transmission will shorten the useful life of
your tractor. Use compressed air or a leaf
blower to remove grass, leaves and trash
from tractor and mower.

spark attester (if equipped) as it could cre-
ate a fire hazard and/or damage.

mowing season or after every 100 hours of
operation, whichever occurs first. Sparkplug
type and gap setting are shown in "PRODUCT
