Belt Inspection: Regularly inspect the mower deck belt and drive belt for wear and tear. Replace belts every 2-3 years, or sooner if cracks or fraying are visible.
Blade Sharpening: Sharpen mower blades at least once a season, or more frequently if you notice a decrease in cutting performance. Dull blades can tear the grass and damage your lawn.
Filter Changes: Change the engine oil and air filter annually, or every 50 hours of use, to maintain optimal engine performance.
Seasonal Storage: Before storing your tractor for the winter, stabilize the fuel, change the oil, and disconnect the battery to prevent damage during the off-season.
