Cleaning
Plug and Discharge Tunnel
To ensure best performance, the discharge tunnel plug
must be cleaned after each use. When grass is thick
and lush, clippings may collect on and around the
plug; this may make plug removal difficult. After
each use, remove plug from discharge tunnel and
clean off all debris.
Underside of Mower Housing
Keep underside of mower housing clean. Be
especially careful to keep kickers free of debris
(Fig. 29).
Washing Method
1.
Position mower on a flat surface near a garden
hose.
2.
Start the engine.
3.
Hold the running garden hose at handle level and
direct water to flow on ground just in front of
right rear tire (Fig. 28). The rotating blade will
draw water under the housing and wash out
clippings. Let the water run for a few minutes or
until you no longer see clippings being washed
out from under housing.
