1. 

Never store 

the tractor with fuel in 

the fuel tank inside 

a building where 

open flames or sparks are present. 
Allow the engine to cool before storing 
in any enclosure. 

2. Avoid exposing broom bristles to 

direct sunlight for long periods. Long 

exposure to direct sunlight 

will damage 

the 

bristles.

working under the broom. 

4. 

Because of dust raised when sweeping 

(other than snow), 

the tractor air 

cleaner should 

be checked daily and 

replaced when necessary.
