REPLACEMENT (self-propelled models) on 
page 20.

Check all fasteners for proper tightness. Pay 
special attention to blade hardware and all 
guards, shields and safety devices.

See engine manual for specific information.

IMPORTANT: Change engine crankcase oil 
after first five (5) hours of operation. Then 
change oil after every 25 hours of operation.
Refer to engine manual for instructions and 
proper oil type.

IMPORTANT: Proper oil level must be 
maintained at all times or engine damage will 
result. DO NOT overfill. Be sure engine is 
level when adding oil.

Replace oil filter every 100 hours of use or 
every season.

1. Change engine oil.

(Figure 19).

filter.

securely.

NOTE: The mower transmission is lubricated 
and sealed at the factory. It should need no 
routine lubrication. If the transmission leaks 
grease, bring the mower to your local Ariens 
dealer for repair.

Spark plug should be replaced every 100 
hours of operation or each year.
NOTE: Loose spark plug wire terminals can 
cause sparking. Replace terminal if 
damaged.

To prevent overheating, air must circulate 
freely around the cooling fins, cylinder head 
and block.

Every 100 hours of operation or yearly (more 
often if conditions require) remove blower 
housing and clean cooling fins. See engine 
manual for instructions.

Check muffler for debris, cracks, wear, or 
other damage.

Every 500 hours of operation, have your 
authorized Ariens dealer replace the 
Engine/Blade Control Cable on your mower.
