Maintenance Tips

Replace the mower deck belt every 200-300 hours of operation, or sooner if you notice signs of wear and tear such as cracking or fraying.
Sharpen or replace mower blades annually, or more frequently if you mow in sandy or abrasive conditions. Dull blades tear the grass instead of cutting it cleanly, leading to an unhealthy lawn.
Change the engine oil and filter every 50 hours or annually to maintain optimal engine performance. Check the air filter regularly and clean or replace it as needed.
Before storing the X394 for the winter, stabilize the fuel with a fuel stabilizer, lubricate all grease fittings, and disconnect the battery. Store the tractor in a dry, sheltered location.
