MAINTENANCE
Hydro-Gear
ZT-3100
®
Regular external maintenance of the transmission
should include the following:
1. Check oil level in expansion tanks. When
the engine is cold, the tanks should be at the
FULL COLD level.
2. Examine the vehicle drive belt, idler pulley(s),
and idler spring(s). Insure that no belt slippage
can occur. Slippage can cause low input
speed to the transmission.
3. Examine the transmission cooling fan
for broken or bent blades. Remove any
obstructions such as grass clippings, leaves
or dirt.
4. Examine the park brake and vehicle linkage to
make sure they work correctly.
5. Examine the vehicle control linkage to the
directional control arm on the transmission.
Also, make sure the control arm is correctly
fastened to the trunnion arm of the
transmission.
6. Examine the bypass mechanism on the
transmission and unit linkage to make sure it
rotates and releases fully.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION Any servicing
dealer attempting a warranty repair must have
prior approval before conducting maintenance
of a Hydro-Gear® product, unless the servicing
dealer is a current Authorized Hydro-Gear®
Service Center.
Caster Wheels
Check every 200 hours. Check that wheels turn
freely. Foam filled tires or solid tires will void the
warranty.
To replace, remove the nut and caster bolt. Pull
the wheel out of the yoke and take care with the
spacer. Install in reverse order. Tighten the caster
bolt and torque to 45 ft-lb (61 Nm).
NOTE: Tire must turn freely but axle spacers
must not. If wheels do not turn freely take the unit
to the dealer for service.

Anti-scalp Rollers
Anti-scalp rollers are correctly adjusted when
they are slightly off of the ground when the deck
is at the desired cutting height. Anti-scalp rollers
keep the deck in the correct position to prevent
scalping in most terrain conditions. Do not adjust
the rollers to support the deck. The rollers must
be approximately 6.4 mm (1/4") from ground.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION Adjust anti-scalp
rollers with the mower on a flat level surface. To
avoid deck damage, the anti-scalp rollers must
not be adjusted to support the deck.
Cleaning
Regular cleaning, especially under the mower
deck, will increase the machine's life-span. Clean
the machine directly after use (after it is cooled),
before the debris sticks.
Do not spray water on the top of the mower deck.
Use compressed air to clean the top side of the
mower deck. Do not use a high pressure washer
or steam cleaner. Avoid spraying engine and
electrical components with water.
Clean the underside of the deck with normal
water pressure. Do not rinse hot surfaces with
cold water. Let unit cool before washing.
CAUTION! Always wear eye
protection when cleaning and
washing.
Hardware
Check daily. Examine the machine for loose or
missing hardware.
