The intervals shown on the schedule are based on average operating conditions. Vehicles which are subjected to
severe use and wet or dusty conditions will require more frequent servicing. Use only Argo replacement parts to
ensure safe operation of the vehicle and to comply with the warranty coverage.
We strongly recommend that an Argo Dealer perform a complete check-over of your vehicle after the initial 20
hours of operation, then once each year. This will reduce maintenance costs over the life of your vehicle.
