BRAND-NEW riding lawn tractor'
FIRST OFF... I'm an ASE certified Master automotive technician., so I know the in's & out's of passenger vehicles (toot-toot) I have just purchased a Southern Statesman (model #SP25PH48ST) and it is sitting in my backyard. I have washed it and I am getting ready to wax the exterior. I am wondering if there is any other prep-work to be done that will extend the life of this tractor. I have heard that putting a coat of wax on the deck will extend the life... however, to me, this seems as if this will 'bead moisture' and shorten the deck life... also, I have heard the 'trick' about spraying the underside of the deck with "PAM" cooking spray, and am wondering if there's any truth in this. (PAM keeps grass from clumping under the mower deck). This tractor was shipped with 30W oil. What about under-coating? What about tire treatment (Armor-all) ANY input will be appreciated! Dave PS tractor has 25HP briggs/stratton V-twin INTEK, Pressure lubricated, 48"electric blade clutch, automatic foot control trans, 'infinite' height adjustment, and cast iron front axels.... oh yeah, and a cupholder. |
