MAINTENANCE

Cleaning

Regular cleaning, especially under the mower deck, will increase the machine’s life-span. Make it a habit to clean the machine directly after use (after it is cooled), before the debris sticks.

Do not spray water on the top of the mower deck. Use compressed air to clean the top side of mower deck. Regularly clean the underside of the deck with normal water pressure. Do not use a high pressure washer or steam cleaner. Avoid spraying engine and electrical components with water.

For models fitted with a cleanout port, attach the quick connect (from the accessory packet) to any garden hose. After mowing, snap the hose to the cleanout port and turn on water supply.

Restart the mower and engage the blades to use the spinning action to wash away debris. Make sure the hose is away from the mower blades.

Do not rinse hot surfaces with cold water. Let unit cool before washing.

Hardware

Check daily. Inspect the entire machine for loose or missing hardware.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Use protective glasses when cleaning and washing.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Make sure no children are in the area when using the cleanout port.
