MOWER MAINTENANCE

Storage

To store the handlebar unscrew the 2 small securing knobs sufficient- ly to allow it to be pivoted forwards to rest against the mower. Take care to ensure that the control cables do not become snagged at the pivot point and depress the engine stop lever to prevent it being dam- aged through contact with the engine.

Engines stored in excess of 30 days need to be protected with Briggs & Stratton fuel additive or drained of fuel to prevent gum from forming in the fuel system or on essential carburettor parts. To ensure your mower is maintained in good working order it is important that the following procedure is adopted. Refer to the Maintenance section as necessary.

Drain fuel from the engine by operating the engine until it stops.

Disconnect the spark plug lead.

Change the engine oil.

Remove the engine spark plug and pour 15ml of engine oil into the engine cylinder and replace the spark plug. Do not exceed the stated volume of oil as engine damage may occur on re-starting. Do not replace the spark plug lead. Slowly pull the engine start - grip once to crank the engine. This will distribute the oil and help prevent engine corrosion.

Clean grass and debris from the engine cylinder, cylinder head cooling fins, under top cowl, and around and behind exhaust/exhaust guard.

Clean all other areas of the mower and ensure that the grassbag is clean.

Lubricate the mower.

Treat metal parts with a water repellent anti-corrosion product.

Cover the mower with a protective sheet and store it in a dry, ventilat- ed area.
