A. CHECKING HYDRAULIC OIL LEvEL
The hydraulic oil level should be checked after the first 10 
hours  of  operation. Thereafter,  check  the  oil  after  every 
200  hours  of  machine  operation  or  monthly,  whichever 
occurs first.
- IMPoRtANt -
If the oil level is consistently low, check for leaks 
and correct immediately.
Wipe dirt and contaminants from around the 
1. 
reservoir cap. Remove the cap from the hydraulic oil 
reservoir.
When the machine is "cold" (before operation), 
2. 
visually check the level of the hydraulic system oil. 
Hydraulic system oil level should be in the middle of 
the indicator window located on the left side of the 
machine. See Figure 7-2. DO NOT overfill; (overfilling 
the oil reservoir may cause oil seepage).
Clean the fill cap and install it onto the reservoir.

B. CHANGING HYDRAULIC OIL
The hydraulic system oil should be changed after the first 
120 hours of machine operation and every 400 hours or 
annually thereafter, whichever occurs first. The oil should 
also be changed if the color of the fluid has become black 
or milky. A black color and/or a rancid odor usually indicates 
possible overheating of the oil, and a milky color usually 
indicates water in the hydraulic oil.
- IMPoRtANt -
The hydraulic system oil should be changed if you 
notice the presence of water or a rancid odor to 
the hydraulic oil.
Park the mower on a level surface and stop the

Remove the fill cap from the reservoir.
Remove the hydraulic filters from both axles and

allow the fluid to drain into the container. Properly 
discard the oil when the system has drained 
completely. See Figure 7-3.
Once the hydraulic system has drained, install new
