Washing the Underside of the Cutter Deck

Service Interval: Before each use or daily—Clean the cutter deck housing.

Wash the underside of the cutter deck after each use 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 park position, 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 cutter deck washout fitting, and turn the water on high (Figure 58).

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 cutter deck is not clean after one washing, soak it and let it stand for 30 minutes. Then repeat the process.

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

A broken or missing washout fitting could expose you and others to thrown objects or blade contact. Contact with blade or thrown debris can cause injury or death.

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

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