SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE
Cleaning the Underside of the Deck
Deck Wash System
Your tractor’s deck is equipped with a water port on its surface as part of its deck wash system.
Use the Smart Jet to rinse grass clippings from the deck’s underside and prevent the buildup of corrosive chemicals. Complete the following steps AFTER EACH MOWING:
- Drive the tractor to a level, clear spot on your lawn, near enough for your garden hose to reach.
- Disengage the PTO, set the parking brake and stop the engine.
- Thread the hose coupler (packaged with your tractor’s Operator’s Manual) onto the end of your garden hose.
- Attach the hose coupler to the water port on your decks surface.
- Turn the water on.
- While sitting in the operator’s position on the tractor, start the engine and place the throttle lever in the FAST position.
- Move the tractor’s PTO into the engaged (ON) position.
- Remain in the operator’s position with the deck engaged for a minimum of two minutes, allowing the underside of the deck to thoroughly rinse.
- Move the tractor’s PTO into the disengaged (OFF) position.
- Turn the ignition key to the STOP position to turn the tractor’s engine off.
- Turn the water off and detach the hose coupler from the water port on your deck’s surface.
- After cleaning your deck with the Smart Jet system, return to the operator’s position and engage the PTO. Keep the deck running for a minimum of two minutes, allowing the underside of the deck to thoroughly dry.
Cleaning the Tractor
Your tractor should be cleaned after each use and under certain conditions, i.e. dry conditions and/or mulching situations, additional cleaning may be necessary. One of the best ways to keep your tractor running efficiently and to reduce fire risk is to regularly remove debris buildup from the tractor. Follow the recommendations below and contact your authorized dealer with any questions.
- Allow the machine to cool in an open area before cleaning.
- Do not use water on any part of the tractor except the underside of the cutting deck. Doing so can cause damage to the tractor’s spindle bearings, electrical system and engine, leading to premature failures. The use of compressed air and/or leaf blower will help keep the tractor clean.
- Clean under the hood. Exhaust manifold, around fuses, all wiring and harnesses, muffler pipe, muffler shield, engine intake screens and cooling fins, etc.
- Clean the top of the mower deck, under the spindle covers and belt area.
- Clean around and near the transmission, axle and the fan area.
- Debris can accumulate anywhere on the tractor, especially on horizontal surfaces. Additional cleaning may be necessary when mowing in dry conditions or when mulching.
- Fuel leaks/spills, oil leaks/spills and excess lubrication can also become collection sites for debris. Immediate repair and cleaning up oil or fuel spills can help reduce fire hazards.
- In addition to cleaning the tractor before operating and storing, do not attempt to mow unusually tall grass (10” or higher), dry grass (e.g., pasture) or piles of dry leaves. Dry grass or leaves may contact the engine exhaust and/or build up on the mower deck presenting a potential fire hazard.
