CARE AND MAINTENANCE

CHECKING & REPLENISHING OIL IN HYDROSTATIC

TRANSMISSION:

Dirt or water in oil can ruin the

hydrostatic transmissions.

Check the oil level in hydrostatic transmission oil
reservoir after every 25 hours of usage. Clean the oil
reservoir cap and the area around it prior to removal.
Check the oil level. Oil should be approximately 1-3/8”
below top of oil tank. Replenish as needed with SAE
20W-50 motor oil. DO NOT OVERFILL. When checking
the oil level, be very careful to keep the reservoir clean.

Change the oil in the reservoir and hydrostat transmis-
sion oil filter after the first 100 hours of use. Then
every 500 hours after that. Remove the filter and be
sure all oil has drained from the reservoir. Replace with
new filter and SAE 20W-50 motor oil.

Please dispose of used oil at proper collection centers -
