First , Get a service manual , then read it , that will put you in a good space to move forward
It is not hard but with the manual as your companion you will not make any mistakes

When I saw the heading I thought he was going to buy a young cow , Cud Cadet

My battery is 12 years old , and touch wood it still has enough life left to get me through Autumn/Fall and will maybe replace at the start of Spring/September
Currently attach trickle charger for half an hour before mowing and as Jackie Gleason said "Away we go"

Oil is cheap , engines are not , do what you think is the right thing that way you will not make a mistake and only have one person to blame
Me , I would do 1 hr , 5 hrs , 10hrs then per the book , if thats not right can I blame you please ?
