Deck Wash
Your mower’s deck is equipped with a water port on its surface as
part of its deck wash system.

Complete the following steps AFTER EACH MOWING:
WARNING!
Before using the deck wash system,
always disengage the blade control, stop engine and
remove key to prevent unintended starting.
1. Position the mower on a level, clear location on your lawn,
near enough for your garden hose to reach.
CAUTION:
Make certain the mower’s discharge
chute is directed AWAY from your house, garage,
parked cars, etc.
2. Remove the fast attach deck wash nozzle from the mower
deck and thread it onto the end of your garden hose.
3. Attach garden hose with the deck wash nozzle to the water
port on your deck’s surface. See Figure 5-5.
