Tire Pressure
WARNING
Equal tire pressure should be maintained at all times.
Never exceed the maximum inflation pressure shown on
the sidewall of the tire.
The recommended operating tire pressure is:
• Approximately 10 psi for the rear tires
• Approximately 14 psi for the front tires
IMPORTANT! Refer to the tire sidewall for exact tire
manufacturer’s recommended or maximum psi. Do not
overinflate. Uneven tire pressure could cause the cutting deck to
mow unevenly.
Gas & Oil Fill-up
The gasoline tank is located under the left side of the seat on
30” deck models and on the engine on 24” deck models. Do
not overfill.
WARNING
Use extreme care when handling gasoline. Gasoline
is extremely flammable and the vapors are explosive.
Never fuel machine indoors or while the engine is hot or
running. Extinguish cigarettes, cigars, pipes, and other
sources of ignition.
IMPORTANT! Your riding mower is shipped with motor oil in the
engine. However, you MUST check the oil level before operating.
Be careful not to overfill.
Service and check the engine oil as instructed in the Engine
Operator’s Manual packed with your riding mower. Read the
instructions carefully.
IMPORTANT! It is important to NOT top off your fuel tank when
filling with fuel. Leave an expansion area available inside the fuel
tank to allow for the fuel to expand and for proper ventilation.
Otherwise the unit may not run properly.
Fill the tank on 30” deck models in accordance with Figure 18, for
24” deck models refer to the Engine Operator’s Manual.
