17
CLEAN THE MOWER
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not expose the mower to water.
The underside of mower deck should be cleaned after each use as grass clippings, leaves, dirt and other
debris will accumulate causing rust and corrosion.
Remove any buildup of grass and leaves on or around the motor cover (do not use water). Wipe the mower clean with a
dry cloth occasionally.
If debris build up on the underside of the unit while using, stop the motor and disconnect it from the power supply .
Tilt the mower forward, or on its side, and scrape it clean with an appropriate tool.
STORAGE
The following steps should be taken to prepare the lawn mower for storage.
Make certain the power cord is disconnected.
Clean mower as instructed in previous section.
Inspect and replace/sharpen blade, if required. Refer to the Maintenance section.
Store mower in a dry, clean area. Do not store next to corrosive materials, such as fertilizer and
rock salt.
Wipe extension cord to remove any foreign substances such as oil or stains. Replace extension
cord if cut or damaged in any way.
Wind cord in a series of equal loops to prevent it from tangling.
Store mower indoors, in a cool, dry place, out of the reach of children. Do not cover lawn mower
with a solid plastic sheet. Plastic coverings trap moisture around the mower causing corrosion.
The handle may be folded away completely for storage.
Loosen the hand knobs on the sides of the handle, and fold the upper handle down.
Remove the hair-pin clips, pull outwards on each side of the lower handle, and lift the sides of the
lower handle past the edges of the handle mounting brackets. Fold the lower handle forward.
Make sure not to bend or kink the power cord.
