34- DIXON MAINTENANCE Maintenance Schedule The following is a list of maintenance procedures that must be performed on the machine. For those points not described in this manual, visit an authorized service workshop.
DIXON -35 MAINTENANCE 1) First change after 5-8 hours. When operating with a heavy load or at high ambient temperatures, replace every 50 hours. 2) In dusty conditions, cleaning and replacement are required more often. 3) Performed by authorized service workshop.
36- DIXON MAINTENANCE Battery Y our mower is equipped with a maintenance free battery and does not need servicing. However , periodic charging of the battery with an automotive type battery charger will extend its life. Keep battery and terminals clean.
DIXON -37 MAINTENANCE Ignition System The engine is equipped with an electronic ignition system. Only the spark plug requires maintenance. For recommended spark plug, see T echnical Data. Remove the ignition cable boot and clean 1. around the spark plug.
38- DIXON MAINTENANCE Engine Cooling Air Intake Check that the engine’s cooling air intake is free from leaves, grass, and dirt. If the cooling air intake is clogged, engine cooling deteriorates, which can lead to engine damage.
DIXON -39 MAINTENANCE Air Filter If the engine seems weak or runs unevenly , the air lter may be clogged. If run with a dirty air lter , the spark plugs can become fouled, disrupting operation. For this reason, it is important to replace the air lter regularly (see the heading Maintenance Schedule for the proper service interval).
40- DIXON MAINTENANCE T ap the paper lter against a xed surface to 4. remove dust. If the paper lter is still dirty , it must be replaced. Ret the air lter as follows: Check that the seal on the bottom of the paper 1. lter is whole. Mount the paper lter in the air lter housing 2.
DIXON -41 MAINTENANCE Tire Pressures All four tires should have a pressure of 15 psi / 103 kPa /1 bar . 8050-824 Adjusting belt tension T ension Eyebolt W ARNING! Faulty adjustment can cause an accident. W ARNING! The machine must be standing absolutely still when the park brake is engaged.
42- DIXON MAINTENANCE Deck belt removal Park on a level surface. Apply parking brake. 1. Lower the deck into the lowest cutting position. 2. Remove bolts from belt shields and remove 3. shields. Remove any dirt or grass that may have 4. accumulated around the cutter housings and entire deck surface.
DIXON -43 MAINTENANCE Pump Belt Replacing EZT (E-Series Zeroturn T ransaxle) belt Park the mower on a level surface. Engage the parking brake. EZT belt removal NOTE: Be careful not to damage the fan blades on the EZT´s as this can affect cooling or damage the EZT´s Remove the deck belt (see Deck Belt Removal • in this section of the manual).
44- DIXON MAINTENANCE Blade replacement Remove blade bolt by turning • counterclockwise. Install new or re-sharpened blade with • stamped “GRASS SIDE” facing towards ground/grass (down) or “THIS SIDE UP” facing deck and cutter housing. Install and tighten blade bolt securely .
DIXON -45 MAINTENANCE Mower Deck Adjusting Mower Deck Check the tire pressure before adjustment of the mower deck. See “Checking T ire Pressure” in Maintenance section. Faulty mower deck adjustments will cause an uneven mowing result. Leveling Mower Deck Adjust the deck while the mower is on a level surface.
46- DIXON MAINTENANCE 8050-092 Cleaning Use protective glasses when cleaning and washing. Caster Wheels Check every 200 hours. Lift front of unit off of ground so caster wheels can rotate freely . T ighten caster bolt then back off ½ turn. Check that wheel rotates freely .
DIXON -47 MAINTENANCE Anti-scalp Rollers Deck has anti-scalp rollers. Anti-scalp rollers are properly adjusted when they are just slightly off of the ground when the deck is at the desired cutting height in the operating position. Anti- scalp rollers then keep the deck in the proper position to help prevent scalping in most terrain conditions.
48- DIXON LUBRICA TION Lubrication Schedule General Remove the ignition key to prevent unintentional movements during lubrication. When lubricating with an oil can, it must be lled with engine oil. When lubricating with grease, unless otherwise stated, use a high grade molybdenum disulde grease.

52- DIXON TROUBLE SHOOTING Problem Cause The engine will not start. Blade switch is engaged. • Ssteering controls are not locked in the neutral • position. Driver is not sitting in the driver ’s seat. • Parking brake is not activated. • Battery is dead.
DIXON -53 TROUBLE SHOOTING Problem Cause The engine seems weak. Clogged air lter . • Defective spark plugs. • Carburetor incorrectly adjusted. • Air trapped in hydraulic system. • The engine overheats. Clogged air intake or cooling ns. • Engine overloaded.
54- DIXON TROUBLE SHOOTING Problem Cause Uneven mowing results. Different air pressure in tires on left and right • sides. Bent blades. • Suspension for the mower deck is uneven. • Chain xture has come loose. • Blades are dull. • Driving speed too high.
DIXON -55 ST ORAGE Winter Storage At the end of the mowing season, the machine should be readied for storage (or if it will not be in use for longer than 30 days).
