Remove all grass and debris from the engine including the
exhaust/exhaust guard, the air ways in the top cowl and the surround-
ing deck areas on a daily basis after use. Never spray the engine with
water during cleaning. Water can contaminate the fuel. Always clean
with a brush or compressed air.
Grass and debris may clog the engine’s air cooling system especially
after prolonged operation while cutting tall, dry grass. The internal cool-
ing fins and surfaces may require cleaning to prevent overheating and
engine damage. We recommend that this service be carried out by an
authorised dealer.
Remove grass debris from the top and underside of the deck immedi-
ately after use.
Regularly check that all securing nuts and bolts are tight. Replace
missing or damaged items immediately.
Check the oil level daily before starting the engine and ensure that the
correct oil level is maintained. Refer to-‘Before Starting the Mower’
for oil checking and filling instructions.
