Mower Inspection
For your safety, inspect the lawn mower before each
use. Before you begin your inspection, be sure the
following conditions are met: the lawn mower should
be on a level surface, with the ignition switch off, the
key removed, the brake set, and the blades
disengaged. Also, disconnect the spark plug wires
from the spark plugs and ground them against the
engine to prevent inadvertent starting.
1. Walk around the mower and look for any fluid
spills or leaks on or underneath the mower.
Remove any and all excessive debris, dirt, and
fluids.
2. Look for signs of damage or excessive wear.
Check the tightness of all nuts, bolts, pins, and
screws. Tighten any that may be loose and
replace any that are missing.
3. Be sure the safety switches are operating
properly so that the engine cannot be started
unless the blades are disengaged.
4. Check the mower blades for any damage or
abnormal wear. If replacement is required,
replace in sets so that they are balanced.
5. Check the tire pressure of all four tires. Do not
exceed the maximum pressure indicated on the
tire.
6. Check the belts for damage or wear.
7. Check engine oil and air filters as recommended
in the engine manufacturer’s manual.
