MTD i1046 사용자 설명서

To attach the negative battery cable and check the 
engine oil level the hood must be open. Locate the hood 
lift notch (Refer to Figure 4 on page 10) at the front/cen-
ter of the dash panel.  Grasping the hood at the notch, 
lift and pivot the hood forward to open. 

The tractor is shipped with an activated sealed battery. 
The positive battery cable is factory connected. The 
negative cable must be connected. The positive battery 
terminal is marked Pos. (+). The negative battery 
terminal is marked Neg. (–).
IMPORTANT: Make sure the ignition switch is in the 
“OFF” position before attaching the battery cables.
•  From the center notch at the front of the dash panel, 

lift the tractor hood and pivot forward to open.

•  Remove the hex shoulder bolt and wing nut from the 

negative (black)cable. 

•  Pull the protective cap, if present, off the negative 

battery terminal. Attach the negative cable (heavy 
black wire) to the negative battery terminal (–) with 
the bolt and wing nut. See Figure 1.

•  The positive cable (red cable) is secured to the 

positive battery terminal (+) with a carriage bolt and 
hex sems nut at the factory. Make certain that the 
rubber boot covers the positive battery terminal.

NOTE: If the battery is put into service after the date 
shown on top of battery, charge the battery as instructed 
on page 24

 

of this manual prior to operating the tractor.

NOTE: Purchase gasoline in small quantities. Do not use 
gasoline left over from the previous season, to minimize 
gum deposits in the fuel system.
•  This engine is certified to operate on unleaded 

gasoline. For best results, fill the fuel tank with only 
clean, fresh, unleaded gasoline with a pump sticker 
octane rating of 87 or higher. In countries using the 
Research method, it should be 90 octane minimum.

•  Unleaded gasoline is recommended because it leaves 

less combustion chamber deposits and reduces 
harmful exhaust emissions. Leaded gasoline is not 
recommended and must not be used where exhaust 
emissions are regulated.

•  Gasohol (up to 10% ethyl alcohol, 90% unleaded 

gasoline by volume) is an approved fuel. Other 
gasoline/alcohol blends are not approved.

•  Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether (MTBE) and unleaded 

gasoline blends (up to a maximum of 15% MTBE by 
volume) are approved fuels. Other gasoline/ether 
blends are not approved.

The gasoline tank is under the rear fender, with the fuel 
fill cap located in the center of the rear fender.  The fuel 
cap is tethered to the tractor to prevent its loss. Do not 
attempt to remove the cap from the tractor. 

IMPORTANT: Your tractor is shipped with motor oil in the 
engine. However, you MUST check the oil level before 
operating. Refer to ‘checking the oil level in the Maintain-
ing your Tractor - Section 6 of this manual. Be careful not 
to overfill.
