Cleaning and Storage
1. Disengage the power take off (PTO), set the
parking brake, and turn the ignition key to
“OFF” to stop the engine. Remove the key.
2. Remove grass clippings, dirt, and grime from the
external parts of the entire machine, especially
the engine. Clean dirt and chaff from the outside
of the engine’s cylinder head fins and blower
housing.
IMPORTANT: You can wash the machine
with mild detergent and water. Do not
pressure wash the machine. Avoid excessive
use of water, especially near the control panel,
lights, engine, and the battery.
3. Check the brake; refer to Brake, page 23.
4. Service the air cleaner; refer to Air Cleaner,
page 18.
5. Grease the chassis; refer to Greasing and
Lubrication, page 23.
6. Change the crankcase oil; refer to Engine Oil,
page 20.
7. Remove the spark plug(s) and check its
condition; refer to Spark Plug, page 22. With the
spark plug(s) removed from the engine, pour two
tablespoons of engine oil into the spark plug
hole. Now use the electric starter to crank the
engine and distribute the oil inside the cylinder.
Install the spark plug(s) and tighten it to 30 ft–lb
(40 Nm). Do not install the wire on the spark
plug(s).
8. Remove the battery from the chassis, check the
electrolyte level, and charge it fully; refer to
Battery, page 30. Do not connect the battery
cables to the battery posts during storage.
IMPORTANT: The battery must be fully
charged to prevent it from freezing and being
damaged at temperatures below 32
°
F (0
°
C). A
fully charged battery maintains its charge for
about 50 days at temperatures lower than
40
°
F (4
°
C). If the temperatures will be above
40
°
F (4
°
C), check the water level in the
battery and charge it every 30 days.

stabilizer/conditioner additive to fuel in the tank
(1 oz. per gallon).

Repeat, on “CHOKE” until engine will not
restart.
D. Dispose of fuel properly. Recycle as per
local codes.
Note: Do not store stabilizer/conditioned
gasoline over 90 days.

Repair or replace any part that is damaged or
defective.
