Every 10 or so operating hours (this is from memory,not the manual so check your manual in case I leave somethingn out)
Check fasteners and lug nuts/bolts, tighten if loose
be sure radiator is clean (blow from fan side with compressed air
Greese all zerk fittings
at 35-50 hours
Change engine oil and filter (this is critical)
check valve lash
torque head bolts (do not loosen first)
Change fuel filter
clean air filter & re-oil (TY290 engine has oil bath type)
check hoses and belt condition upgrade from chinese if necessary
If you have not done it, change hyd oil to 10w Aw32 or R&O.
at 100 hours you can change the gear oil.

Chip, what oil do you recommend for the first or any oil change? Is the 25hp diesel a 5qt (w/filter) job?
Thanks,
K ....
