General Recommendations
Always observe safety rules when performing any •

The warranty on this lawn mower does not cover items that
•
have been subjected to operator abuse or negligence. To
receive full value from warranty, operator must maintain
the lawn mower as instructed here.
Changing of engine-governed speed will void engine
•
warranty.
All adjustments should be checked at least once each
•
season.
Periodically check all fasteners and make sure these are •
tight.
WARNING:
Always stop engine, disconnect spark
plug, and ground against engine before performing
any type of maintenance on your machine.
Lubrication
Lubricate pivot points on the blade and drive controls 1.
at least once a season with light oil. These controls must
operate freely in both directions. See Fig. 6-1.
Lubricate the wheels and rear wheel gears at least once a 2.
season with light oil (or motor oil). If wheels are removed
for any reason, lubricate surface of the pivot arm and inner
surface of the wheel with light oil. See Fig. 6-1.
Lubricate the torsion spring and pivot points on the rear 3.
discharge door and side mulch plug periodically with light
oil to prevent rust. See Fig. 6-1.
The transmission is pre-lubricated and sealed at the factory 4.
and does not require lubrication.
Follow the accompanying engine manual for lubrication
5.
schedule and instruction for engine lubrication.
Deck Care
Clean underside of the mower deck after each use to prevent
build-up of grass clippings or other debris. Follow steps below
for this job.
Disconnect spark plug wire. Drain gasoline from lawn 1.
mower or place a piece of plastic under the gas cap.
Tip mower so that it rests on the engine housing. Keep the
2.
side with the air cleaner facing up. Hold mower firmly.
WARNING:
Never tip the mower more than 90º in
any direction and do not leave the mower tipped for
any length of time. Oil can drain into the upper part
of the engine causing a starting problem.
3. Scrape and clean the underside of the deck with a suitable
tool. Do not spray with water.
IMPORTANT: Do not use a pressure washer or garden hose
to clean your unit. These may cause damage to bearings,
or the engine. The use of water will result in shortened life
and reduce serviceability.
4. Put the mower back on its wheels on the ground. If you had
put plastic under the gas cap earlier, make sure to remove it
now.
