to the State of California to cause cancer and
reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.
The battery is sealed and is maintenance-free. Acid levels cannot
be checked and fluid can not be added.
• Always keep the battery cables and terminals clean and
free of corrosive build-up.
• After cleaning the battery and terminals, apply a light coat
of petroleum jelly or grease to both terminals.
CAUTION:
If removing the battery for cleaning,
disconnect the NEGATIVE (Black) wire from it's
terminal first, followed by the POSITIVE (Red) wire.
When re-installing the battery, always connect the

the NEGATIVE (Black) wire. Be certain that the wires
are connected to the correct terminals; reversing
them could result in serious damage to your
engine's alternating system.
Cleaning the Tractor
Any fuel or oil spilled on the machine should be wiped off
promptly. Do NOT allow debris to accumulate around the cooling
fins of the engine, the transmission's cooling fan or on any other
part of the machine, especially the belts and pulleys.
