Oil
IMPORTANT: Your tractor is shipped with motor oil in the engine.
However, you MUST check the oil level before operating. See the
"Service and Maintenance" section.
Gasoline
wArNING
Use extreme care when handling gasoline. Gasoline is extremely
flammable and the vapors are explosive. Never fuel machine
indoors or while the engine is hot or running. Extinguish cigarettes,
cigars, pipes, and other sources of ignition.
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.
•
Gasohol (up to 10% ethyl alcohol, 90% unleaded gasoline by
volume) is an approved fuel. Other gasoline/alcohol blends, such
as E85, 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.
•
Fill fuel tank outdoors or in well-ventilated area.
OPERATION
•
Do not overfill fuel tank. Fill tank to no more than 1/2 inch below
bottom of filler neck to allow space for fuel expansion.
•
Never remove gas cap or add fuel while the engine is hot or run-
ning. Allow engine to cool at least two minutes before refueling.
•
If gasoline is spilled, wipe it off the engine and equipment. Move
machine to another area. Wait 5 minutes before starting the
engine.
1.
Turn the engine off and let engine cool at least 2 minutes before
removing the fuel cap. 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.
2.
Fill the fuel tank with gasoline.
3.
Reinstall the fuel cap.
SAfeTy INTerloCK SySTeM
The safety interlock system is designed for safe operation of the trac-
tor. If this system should ever malfunction, do not operate the tractor,
immediately contact your Sears Parts & Repair Service Center.
•
The safety interlock system prevents the engine from starting
unless the parking brake is engaged and the PTO knob is in the
disengaged (OFF) position.
•
The safety interlock system will automatically shut off the engine if
the operator leaves the seat before engaging the parking brake.
•
The safety interlock system will automatically shut off the engine
if the operator leaves the tractor's seat with the PTO (Blade
Engage) knob engaged, regardless of whether the parking brake
is engaged.
•
With the ignition key in the NORMAL MOWING position, the
electric PTO clutch will automatically shut off if the PTO knob is in
the engaged (ON) position and the drive pedal is depressed for
Reverse travel.
Tampering with or attempting to bypass the Safety Interlock Switches
in any way will void your tractor's warranty. Do not operate the tractor
if the interlock system is malfunctioning.
reverSe CAuTIoN Mode
Use extreme caution while operating the tractor in the REVERSE
CAUTION MODE. Always look down and behind before and while
backing. Do not operate the tractor when children or others are
around. Stop the tractor immediately if someone enters the area.
The REVERSE CAUTION MODE position of the key switch module
allows the tractor to be operated in reverse with the blades (PTO)
engaged.
