Deck Wash
Your mower’s deck is equipped with a water port on its surface as
part of its deck wash system.
Use the deck wash to rinse grass clippings from the deck’s
underside and prevent the buildup of corrosive chemicals.
Complete the following steps AFTER EACH MOWING:
1.
Push the mower to 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 6-2.

the water port on your deck’s surface.
After cleaning your deck, restart the mower. Keep the engine
and blade running for a minimum of two minutes, allowing the
underside of the cutting deck to thoroughly dry.
