Engine Maintenance
Refer to the Engine Operator's Manual packed with your mower for a detailed
description of all engine-related service specifications.
Clean Engine

Daily or before every use, clean grass, chaff or accumulated debris from
engine. Keep linkage, spring, and controls clean. Keep area around and
behind muffler free of any combustible debris.
•
Keeping engine clean allows air movement around engine.

Engine parts should be kept clean to reduce the risk of overheating and
ignition of accumulated debris.

system. Use a brush or dry cloth.
Mower Maintenance

Remove the fast attach deck wash nozzle from the mower deck and thread it
onto the end of your garden hose.

Attach garden hose with the deck wash nozzle to the water port on your
deck's surface. See Figure 18.
4.
Turn the water on.
5.
Start the engine as described in the Operation section.

Run the engine for a minimum of two minutes, allowing the underside of the
cutting deck to thoroughly rinse.
