General Practices
1. Keep unit clean, checking that engine is free of dirt and
chaff. Make sure all fasteners are tight. Check
deflectors, baffles and shields for wear and replace as
needed.
2. Clean grass clippings from hopper, chute, blower and
cutting unit after each use. Wash underside of cutting
unit daily with hose. An excessive buildup of clippings
will impair collection system performance.

Manuals for service requirements of each.
