Proper and timely service of the Power Ox 220A is
critical to keep the tractor in safe and reliable oper-
ating condition.
Cleaning and Appearance Care
For best results, and to maintain the finish of the
power unit, clean or wash the power unit.
Attention
To maintain the finish of the Power Ox 220A,
thoroughly wash the equipment after each use to
remove any corrosive agents. Failure to clean the
equipment may result in corrosion of (including
but not limited to) steel, and aluminium.
CAUTION
If the engine has been running, it must be allowed
to cool in order to prevent damage to the block
and exhaust manifold.
Do not use high pressure water to clean the trac-
tor. High pressure water can force its way into
bearings and other components causing damage
to equipment.
Allow the power unit and all components to cool

engine compartment. Use mild soap and water to
clean the power unit. Harsh chemical cleaners could
