Part of the New Holland Operator Manuals.
Pull the dipstick before the first cut of the day and you want the level, the correct grade, and the refill amount in one place instead of three. This operator manual for the New Holland LS55-20H yard tractor keeps them together, and it does the same for every other job the machine asks of you.
Fifty pages, published by New Holland as 86599816, covering serial prefix 715695006 - T0E0001 and up. Five sections run from Safety and Gasoline and Oil into Operation, where the controls, PTO engagement, safety interlock system, and attachment power lift are explained, then Maintenance, with the service interval chart, air cleaner, engine oil, spark plug, greasing, tire pressure, brake, transaxle fluid, and battery, and finally Troubleshooting for starter, engine, power, vibration, and drive complaints.
Buy the PDF once and it stays yours for this tractor, ready the next morning the grass will not wait.
