owner just brought over a huskee lt3800 mower for one of our shop yards. of course the manual didn't arrive with it.. :(

i see the mower says it takes 10w30 oil. can this thing be run on syn oil from the start?

I can't find a &^^%$ MANUAL ONLINE WITHOUT THE SN.. AND THE GOOFBALL GUYS AT THE SHOP CAN'T IND THE SN ON THE MOWER.. :)

I'll have to run out there I think, if i want the number.

any ideas on the oil?

does it come with a break in oil or?

thanks

Gotta love how MTD ruins anything they put their hands on.

Synthetic should not pose a problem, ran it in our CC LT1042 until it left the property.

i hear ya. :)

so i ran to work and got the model # I kew it had to be one of 2 numbers as there is one for the other 48 and one for CA. anyway. got the # anyway.. went to their site just to double check.. AGAIN. no online manual for either :)

I ended up calling tech support ( got thru!! ) and asked them if syn from t he start was good and they told me 5w30 or 10w30 syn.. or 10w30 dino is fine.

and I'm getting the engine and owners manual for free.

at least it has a brigs engine. I kinda like those . my 16yr old muyrray rider at home has one. don't miss a lik..
