Hi folks, new member with first post.
Purchased a new Cheetah from a dealer recently and am getting ready to change the oil/filter for the first time. It's powered by a Kawasaki FX850V, 31hp, air cooled engine and is a real treat to cut with. I'm very impressed with the machine - but to be honest I haven't had much experience with ZTs before this one. Current plan is not to use it commercially, but that may change over time.
Any recommendations on using oil additives or treatments such as Lucas HD Oil Stabilizer?
Any suggestions/techniques/best practices would greatly appreciated - i.e synthetic oils (?), or tips for making preventive maintenance easier.
Thnx in advance
Scott
