General Engine Maintenance
Detailed instructions and recommendations for break-in
and regular maintenance are specified in the Engine Owner’s
Manual. Please refer to this manual for engine servicing,
lubricating oil levels with quality and viscosity
recommendations, bolt torques, etc. The engine warranty is
backed by the engine manufacturer. Special attention should
be paid to applicable data which will not be duplicated here.
Engine Oil and Filter
Check engine oil daily and after every 4 hours of operation.
Machine must be sitting level when checking oil. Refer to
engine manual and maintenance schedule for oil
recommendation and capacities. Hustler
®
Motor Oil is
recommended.
Change the engine oil and filter after the first 5 hours of
operation and per the engine manufacturer’s
recommendations after that. If mower is being operated in
extremely dirty conditions, then it is recommended oil be
changed more frequently.
IMPORTANT: After the new oil filter has been installed,
clean up any oil which may have spilled onto the engine
plate, engine exhaust system, and muffler guard.
Draining the engine oil:
1. Locate the oil drain valve on the engine. Figure 7-1 &
Figure 7-2
2. Position a suitable oil drain container under the
machine below the oil drain valve.
3. Twist the valve counterclockwise to open the valve.
Allow 10 minutes for engine oil to adequately drain.
4. After the oil is drained, close the valve by twisting it
clockwise.
5. Once the valve is closed, clean up any spilled oil.
IMPORTANT: All oil drips or spills must be cleaned off of
the engine plate, engine exhaust system, and muffler
guard before operating the machine.

Engine Air Filter
Perform engine air filter maintenance per the Maintenance
Schedule shown elsewhere in this manual.
A specially designed dry filter is standard equipment on
these mowers and supplies clean combustion air to the
engine. Figure 7-3 & Figure 7-4
These mowers are equipped with a safety filter. The filter
element slides over the safety filter. Figure 7-5
Allow the engine to cool before changing the
engine oil. If the engine has been running, use
caution when changing the engine oil as it will be
very hot. You should wear the appropriate
protective gear to avoid being burned or exposed
to engine oil.
