Kenmore 3 Manuel D’Utilisation

•  Check all hydraulic fittings, connections and 

hoses for signs of leaks, damage or wear.  

•  Hoses must be routed clear of any moving 

parts, and secured to prevent ‘rubbing’  to 
prevent damage. 

•  Keep all hydraulic connections clean. 

 
Refer to pages 16 to 19 for the hydraulic system 
diagrams and operation. 
 
GUARDS AND DECALS 
 
Before starting mowing operations : 

•  Check that all safety Guards are in place and 

not damaged. 

•  Check that all Safety/Warning Decals are in 

place, are clean and readable. 

 
                                  WARNING 
Do not operate the machine if any Safety Guards or 
Safety/Warning Decals are missing or damaged.  
To do so may result in serious personal injury. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 
 
INITIAL OPERATION CHECK 
 
After the first 10 hours of operation : 
 

•  Check all fasteners for tightness. 

•  Check the Main Wheel Retainer Bolts. 

Remove the lower bearing Blocks. Check that 
the Bearing Retainer Washers are tightly 
locked by the Retainer Bolts. (Refer to illustra- 
tions on pages 34 and 35). If the washer is 
loose, remove the Retainer Bolt and apply 
‘Loctite 242’ to the threads and refit the bolt and 
washer. Torque the Retainer Bolt to 76 in/lb. 
Re-assemble the Lower bearing Blocks. 

 
                              IMPORTANT 
With the Lower Bearing Blocks removed check also that 
the inner races of the bearings show no signs of turning 
on the axle shaft. 
This check should be done at regular service 
intervals. 

 

For  main axles with Taper Roller Bearings refer to 
pages 33 and 34.
