They are not standard fuses, they are Slow-Blow fuses. They have been used on automotive, ag, construction, and even lawnmowers for over 30 years.

To adjust the throttle lever friction, remove the screen below the dash and look under the dash at the bottom of the lever. You will see 2 nuts locked together. Lossen the lower nut and tighten the upper nut while checking the lever operation. When you get it tight enough to stay in place, hold...

Begining with the ZD300 series, they use wet brakes and all ZD series have had a wet clutch.

The hydraulic oil filter is pressure-fed, not gravity-fed like most tractors. When you change the filter, all you will lose is the oil in the filter and a few ounces from the passages. Change the filter, run the tractor for a minute, shut it off, and top off the hydraulic oil.

They probably have some accelerated wear. If they work well and do not chatter, you probably will not have a problem.

I have found a few L series with the brakes too tight right out of the crate during pre-delivery so they could have been a little tight since new. The free travel should have been checked at pre-delivery and the 100-hour service.

All ZD1211 units have a drain at the bottom of each rear axle housing. Part #130 is the final drive drain plug, there is one on each side.
