V-BELTS: 
There are 3 V-belts on your Dixon Zero

belts found to be in poor condition. All 
belts are equipped with spring loaded belt 
tighteners and do not require tightening 
adjustments.

LUBRICATION: 
A. Engine: Follow engine 
manufacturer's recommendation.
 
B. Deck Spindles: Lubricate with 3 
"shots" only, every 100 hours.
 
C. Hydrostatic Transmission & Filter: 
Follow instructions listed below.
 
Check the oil level in hydrostatic 
transmission oil reservoir after every 25 
hours of usage. Clean the oil reservoir 
cap and the area around it prior to 
removal. Check the oil level on the 
dipstick. The proper oil level should 
register between the marked hole on the 
dipstick and the end of the dipstick. 
Replenish as needed with 20W-50 Motor 
Oil.   DO NOT OVER FILL. When 
checking the oil level, be very careful to 
keep the reservoir clean
 
Change the oil in the reservoir and 
hydrostatic transmission filter after the 
first 100 hours of use, then every 500 
hours after that. Remove the filter and be 
sure all oil has drained from the reservoir. 
Replace with new filter (P/N 7252) and 
20W-50 Motor Oil.
 
A. With the brake handle in the 
"RELEASE" position and the actuating 
lever against the stop, remove the cotter 
pin from the castle nut. Insert a 0.010 
feeler gauge between the brake disc and 
the brake puck. Tighten the castle nut 
with the feeler gauge inserted until the 
gauge fits snugly«between the disc and 
puck. The gap should not be so tight that 
the feeler gauge cannot be reinserted 
after removal. Back the castle nut to the 
closest pin hole and reinsert the cotter pin.
