Service
Safe Handling of Gasoline:

To avoid personal injury or property dam-

age use extreme care in handling gaso-
line. 

Gasoline is extremely flammable 

and the vapors are explosive. Serious 

personal injury can occur when gasoline 

is spil ed on yourself or your clothes which 

can ignite.  Wash your skin and change 

clothes immediately.

Use only an approved gasoline 

container.
Never fill containers inside a vehicle or 

on a truck or trailer bed with a plastic 

liner. Always place containers on the 

ground away from your vehicle before 

fil ing.
When practical, remove gas-powered 

equipment from the truck or trailer and 

refuel it on the ground. If this is not 

possible, then refuel such equipment on 

a trailer with a portable container, rather 

than from a gasoline dispenser nozzle.
Keep the nozzle in contact with the rim 

of the fuel tank or container opening at 

all times until fueling is complete. Do not 

use a nozzle lock-open device.
Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes 

and other sources of ignition.
Never fuel machine indoors.
Never remove gas cap or add fuel while 

the engine is hot or running. Al ow en-

gine to cool at least two minutes before 

refueling.
Never over fill fuel tank. Fill tank to no 

more than ½ inch below bottom of fil er 

neck to al ow space for fuel expansion.
Replace gasoline cap and tighten 

securely.
If gasoline is spil ed, wipe it off the 

engine and equipment. Move machine 

to another area. Wait 5 minutes before 

starting the engine. 
To reduce fire hazards, keep machine 

free of grass, leaves, or other debris 

build-up. Clean up oil or fuel spil age and 

remove any fuel soaked debris.
Never store the machine or fuel 

container inside where there is an open 

flame, spark or pilot light as on a water 

heater, space heater, furnace, clothes 

dryer or other gas appliances. 
Al ow a machine to cool at least five 

minutes before storing.

General Service

Never run an engine indoors or in a poorly 

ventilated area. Engine exhaust contains 

carbon monoxide, an odorless, and 

deadly gas.
Before cleaning, repairing, or inspecting, 

make certain the blade(s) and all moving 

parts have stopped. Disconnect the spark 

plug wire and ground against the engine 

to prevent unintended starting. 
Periodical y check to make sure the 

blades come to complete stop within 

approximately (5) five seconds after oper-

ating the blade disengagement control. If 

the blades do not stop within the this time 

frame, your machine should be serviced 

professional y by an authorized Cub Cadet 

Service Dealer.
Check brake operation frequently as it is 

subjected to wear during normal opera-

tion. Adjust and service as required.
Check the blade(s) and engine mounting 

bolts at frequent intervals for proper 

tightness. Also, visual y inspect blade(s) 

for damage (e.g., excessive wear, bent, 

cracked).   Replace the blade(s) with
