raised.

NOTICE
Do not wash any portion of the equipment while it is hot.
Do not use high pressure spray or steam. Use cold water
and automotive cleaners.

encourage rust and corrosion of metal parts resulting
in premature deterioration or failure. Damage of this
nature is not covered by the factory warranty.
CAUTION
Clean grass and debris from cutting units, drives,
muffler, and engine to prevent fires.
