We do not recommend using a garden hose or pressure 
washer to clean your tractor unless the engine and trans-
mission are covered to keep water out. Water in engine or 
transmission will shorten the useful life of your tractor.  Use 
compressed air or a leaf blower to remove grass, leaves 
and trash from tractor and mower.

Remove any dust, dirt or oil from engine cooling fi ns to 
prevent engine damage from overheating.  Hood and engine 
blower housing must be removed to clean engine cooling 
fi ns. See Engine Manual.

Your engine will not run properly using a dirty air fi lter.  
Remove cartridge every 25 hours of operation and tap to 
clean. Replace paper car tridge once a year or after every 
100 hours of operation, more often if used in very dusty, 
dirty conditions. See Engine Manual.

The fuel fi lter should be replaced once each season.  If fuel 
fi lter becomes clogged, ob struct ing fuel fl ow to car bu re tor, 
re place ment is re quired.

 tions.
