Engine oil should be checked daily before starting 

the machine. See the engine manufacturers manual 

for specifications on type of oil, filling instructions and 

service intervals.

The machine is equipped with a safety system that 

prevents starting or driving under the following 

conditions. 
The engine can only be started when: 

The mower deck is disengaged. 

• 

The steering controls are in the outer, locked 

• 

neutral position. 
The driver is sitting in the driver’s seat.

• 

The parking brake is on.

• 
Make daily inspections to ensure that the safety 

system works by attempting to start the engine 

when one of the conditions is not met. Change the 

conditions and try again. 
If the machine starts when one of these conditions 

is not met, turn the machine off and repair the safety 

system before using the machine again.
Make sure the engine stops when the park brake is not 

engaged and the operator leaves the seated position. 
Check that the engine stops if the mower blades are 

engaged and the driver temporarily stands up.

Check daily. Inspect the entire machine for loose or 

missing hardware.

See engine manufacturers specifications for cleaning 

and replacement intervals.
