Maintenance
• Save all instructions
WARNING
In order to prevent accidental starting when set-
ting up, transporting, adjusting or making repairs,
always disconnect spark plug wire and place
wire where it cannot come in contact with plug.
CAUTION
If the engine has been running, the muffler will
be very hot. Be careful not to touch the muffler.
GENERAL
• Always observe all safety warnings when
performing any maintenance.
• Maintain the mower with care.
• Inspect the mower periodically. If the mower
is not working properly or damaged, have it
repaired by a qualified service center.
• Do not change engine governor setting or
overspeed the engine.
• Do not remove or modify any parts. Removing
or modifying parts could lead to injury, damage
the mower and will void the warranty.
• Use only genuine replacement parts and
accessories. Unapproved parts or
accessories could lead to injury, damage to
the unit and void your warranty
• Periodically check all fasteners and ensure
they are tight.
LUBRICATION
Keep the unit well lubricated
• Using a light lubricating oil to lubricate pivot
points on the blade control lever, wheels and
mulcher door hinge.
IMPORTANT:
Do not oil or grease plastic wheel
bearings. Viscous lubricants will attract dust and
dirt that will shorten the life of the self lubricat-
ing bearings. If you feel they must be lubricated,
use only a dry, powdered graphite type lubricant
sparingly.
• Refer to the separate Engine Owner’s manual
for lubrication schedule and instructions for
engine lubrication.
CLEANING
IMPORTANT: For best performance, keep mower
housing free of grass build-up and trash. Clean the
underside of your mower after each use.
WARNING
In order to prevent accidental starting when set-
ting up, transporting, adjusting or making repairs,
always disconnect spark plug wire and place wire
where it cannot come in contact with plug.
CAUTION
Always tip the mower so it is resting on the side of
the deck and the air filter side of the engine is fac
-
ing up. Make sure the mower is resting in a stable
position before beginning to clean the deck. Never
tip the mower more than 90º in any direction and
do not leave the mower tipped for extended periods
of time.
Oil can drain into the top part of the engine and
cause starting problems.
• Before cleaning the underside of the deck,
always drain the fuel tank by running the engine
till the tank is empty.
• Clean the underside of your mower by scraping
to remove build-up of grass and trash.
• Keep finished surfaces and wheels free of all
gasoline, oil, etc.
• We do not recommend using a garden hose to
clean mower unless the electrical system,
muffler, air filter and carburetor are covered to
keep water out. Water in engine can result in
shortened engine life.
