Check Battery and Connections
Check the condition of the battery and connections
according to the intervals specified in “Periodic
Maintenance Schedule” on page 27. Specific items to
look for are:
• Loose or missing fasteners on the battery
hold-down.
• Loose cable connections.
• Frayed, cut, or broken cables.
• Cracks in battery cell cover or case.
• Dirt, oil, or water contamination.
• Corrosion at battery terminals.
• Reduction in voltage or ability to hold a charge.
Repair or replace the battery and/or components as
needed. Use only replacement parts that are
equivalent to the original equipment. Contact your
KOHLER authorized distributor/dealer for assistance.
Check and Adjust the Drive Belt
A worn, stretched, or damaged drive belt may fail,
especially under heavy loads. Check the condition of
the drive belt regularly and adjust belt tension as
needed.
Rotating parts can cause
severe injury.
Stay away while the engine is in
operation.
Keep hands, feet, hair, and clothing away from all
moving parts to prevent injury. Never operate the
engine with covers, shrouds, or guards removed.
