Tires
WARNING
Never exceed the maximum inflation pressure shown on the sidewall of

The recommended operating tire pressure is:
•
Approximately 10 psi for the rear tires
•
Approximately 14 psi for the front tires
IMPORTANT: Refer to the tire sidewall for exact tire manufacturer's
recommended or maximum psi. Do not overinflate. Uneven tire pressure could
cause the cutting deck to mow unevenly.
Battery
The battery is sealed and is maintenance-free. Acid levels cannot be checked.
•
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.
•
Always keep the rubber boot positioned over the positive terminal to prevent
shorting.

If removing the battery, disconnect the NEGATIVE (Black) wire from its
terminal first, followed by the POSITIVE (Red) wire. When re-installing
the battery, always connect the POSITIVE (Red) wire to its terminal first,
followed by the NEGATIVE (Black) wire.
SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE
Figure 18
California Proposition 65
Battery posts, terminals, and related accessories contain lead and lead
compounds, chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and

Jump Starting
Never jump start a damaged or frozen battery. Be certain the vehicles
do not touch, and ignitions are off. Do not allow cable clamps to
touch.
1.
Connect positive (+) cable to positive post (+) of your tractor's discharged
battery.
2.
Connect the other end of the cable to the (positive +) post of the jumper
battery.
3.
Connect the second cable (negative –) to the other post of the jumper
battery.
4.
Connect the other end of the negative cable to the engine block of the
tractor, away from the battery. Attach to an unpainted part to assure a good
connection.
If the jumper battery is installed on a vehicle (i.e. car, truck), do NOT start
the vehicle's engine when jump starting your tractor.
5.
Start the tractor (as instructed earlier in this section of this manual).
6.
Set the tractor's parking brake before removing the jumper cables, in reverse
order of connection.
Charging
Batteries give off an explosive gas while charging. Charge the battery in a
well ventilated area and keep away from an open flame or pilot light as on a
water heater, space heater, furnace, clothes dryer or other gas appliances.
When charging your tractor's battery, use only a charger designed for 12V lead-
acid batteries. Read your battery charger's Owner's Manual prior to charging
your tractor's battery. Always follow its instructions and heed its warnings.
If your tractor has not been put into use for an extended period of time, charge the
battery as follows:
1.
Set your battery charger to deliver a max of 10 amperes.
2.
If your battery charger is automatic, charge the battery until the charger
indicates that charging is complete. If the charger is not automatic, charge
for no fewer than eight hours.
