MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE
Perform these required maintenance procedures at the frequency
stated in the table. These procedures should also be a part of any
seasonal tune-up.

or skills. If you are unsure about these procedures take
your unit to a Cub Cadet or other qualified service dealer.
NOTE: Maintenance, replacement, or repair of the emission
control devices and system may be performed by a Cub
Cadet or other qualified service dealer.
In order to assure peak performance of your engine, inspection of
the engine exhaust port may be necessary after 50 hours of
operation. If you notice lost RPM, poor performance or general lack
of acceleration, this service may be required. If you feel your engine
is in need of this inspection, refer service to a Cub Cadet or other
qualified service dealer for repair. DO NOT attempt to perform this
process yourself as engine damage may result from contaminants
involved in the cleaning process for the port.
