STORAGE

Your mower should be prepared for off-season storage as follows:

MOWER

•Clean underside of mower housing (See "CLEAN-

ING" in Maintenance section of manual),

•Inspect and replace/sharpen blade, if required (See "BLADE CARE" in Maintenance section of manual).

•Lubricate as shown in Service Recommendation chart below.

•Make sure motor/blade control is in OFF (released) position for storage.

HANDLE

The handle may be folded away completely for storage.

•Remove the grass bag.

•Loosen the hand knobs on the sides of the handle, and let the upper handle fold down to the rear.

•Pull outward on the handle locks on each side of the lower handle, and lift the sides of the lower handle

past the locks as shown in figure 10. Fold the lower handle forward.

CAUTION: When folding the handle for storage or transportation, be careful not to bend or kink the power cord.

To return the mower to the operating position, pull up and back on the handle until it locks in position. Tighten

the hand knobs which secure the upper and lower handles.

EXTENSIONCORD

•Replace extension cord if cut or abraded.

•Extension cord should be wiped dry of any foreign substances such as oil or stains.

•Wind cord and store in cool, dry place (See cord winding instruction on page 9).

OTHER

Do not store your mower under any plastic cover.

Plastic cannot breathe which allows condensation to

form and cause the metal components of your mower to rust.

LUBRICATION

MOTOR

The motor on your mower does not require lubrication.

WHEELS

DO NOT oil or grease the wheel bearings. Viscous lubricants will attract dust and dirt that will shorten the life

of the self-lubricating wheel bearings. If you feel the wheels must be lubricated, use only a dry, silicone type lubri- cant sparingly.
