Regular motor oil (10W-30) |

Can I replace my current turf tires with the knobby tires that are currently being used in production?
No, because they will hit the main frame, but you can install other knobby tires by ordering Part No. 18318A.

My model 900 with turf tires seems to lack traction, is there anything I can do?
Yes, fill the right hand drive tire with 1˝ gallons of windshield washer fluid. |
|
|
I burnt out my 18202 drive belts, is there anything I can do to prevent this?
Yes, install one Part No. 22172 belt in place of the two Part No. 18202 belts, and train the operator not to start the machine with the blade in the ground. |
|
|
How can I control the depth of cut on the go while edging sand traps.
Install the Part No. 80004 golf course quadrant. |
|
|
My machine arrived with the hydrostatic transmission oil below the add mark on the oil expansion tank.
That mark is not an add mark, but is a cold mark. As long as there is some oil in the expansion tank, the level is fine. |
|
|
What are the maintenance requirements of the transmission, gearbox, and differential?
None. The oil does not need to be checked or changed – ever because they are sealed systems. |
|
|
How long will a blade last?
Typically, the blade can edge about 10 miles of bed. Wet soil will wear the blade less; dry soil will wear the blade more. |
|
|
Can I adjust the angle of the cutting blade?
No, it is fixed. What looks like an adjusting rod is really a stabilizing rod to absorb the trust loads coming from the soil. |
