CLEANING THE RIDER
If the riding mower has been recently run, the engine,
muffler and surrounding metal surfaces will be hot and
can cause burns to the skin. Let the engine cool for at least
five (5) minutes. Exercise caution to avoid burns.
Your riding mower should be cleaned after each use and under
certain conditions, i.e. dry conditions and/or mulching situations,
additional cleaning may be necessary.
One of the best ways to keep your rider running efficiently and
to reduce fire risk is to regularly remove debris build-up from
the rider. Follow the recommendations below and contact your
authorized dealer with any questions.
• Allow the riding mower to cool in an open area before cleaning.
• Do not use water on any part of the rider except the underside
of the cutting deck. Doing so can cause damage to the rider's
spindle bearings, electrical system and engine, leading to
premature failures. The use of compressed air and/or leaf
blower will help keep the rider clean.

WARNING
• Clean under the hood. Exhaust manifold, around fuses, all
wiring and harnesses, muffler pipe, muffler shield, engine
intake screens and cooling fins, etc. See Figure 21.
• Clean the top of the mower deck, under the spindle covers
and belt area. See Figure 22.
• Clean around and near the transmission, axle and the fan
area. See Figure 22.
• Debris can accumulate anywhere on the rider, especially on
horizontal surfaces. Additional cleaning may be necessary
when mowing in dry conditions or when mulching.
• Fuel leaks/spills, oil leaks/spills and excess lubrication can
also become collection sites for debris. Immediate repair and
cleaning up oil or fuel spills can help reduce fire hazards.
• In addition to cleaning the rider before operating and storing,
do not attempt to mow unusually tall grass (10" (25 cm) or
higher), dry grass (e.g., pasture) or piles of dry leaves. Dry
grass or leaves may contact the engine exhaust and/or build
up on the mower deck presenting a potential fire hazard.
BATTERY
Clean the battery by removing it from the riding mower and
washing with a baking soda and water solution. If necessary,
scrape the battery terminals with a wire brush to remove
deposits. Coat terminals and exposed wiring with grease or
petroleum jelly to prevent corrosion.
The battery is sealed and is maintenance-free. Acid levels cannot
be checked.
