Washing the Underside of the Mower

Service Interval: Before each use or daily

After each use, wash the underside of the mower to prevent grass buildup for improved mulch action and clipping dispersal.

1.Park the machine on a level surface and disengage the blade control switch.

2.Move the motion control levers outward to the neutral position, engage parking brake, stop the engine, remove the key, and wait for all moving parts to stop before leaving the operating position.

3.Attach the hose coupling to the end of the mower washout fitting, and turn the water on high (Figure 51).

Note: Spread petroleum jelly on the washout fitting O-ring to make the coupling slide on easier and protect the O-ring.

Note: If the mower is not clean after one washing, soak it and let it stand for 30 minutes. Then repeat the process.

8.Run the mower again for one to three minutes to remove excess water.

WARNING

•Replace broken or missing washout fitting immediately, before using mower again.

•Plug any hole(s) in mower with bolts and locknuts.

•Never put your hands or feet under the mower or through openings in the mower.
