Belt Inspection and Replacement: Regularly inspect the deck and drive belts for wear and tear. Replace belts every 2-3 years or sooner if cracks or fraying are visible.
Blade Sharpening: Sharpen mower blades at least once a season, or more frequently if you mow in sandy or rocky conditions. Dull blades tear grass, leading to unhealthy lawns.
Filter Changes: Change the engine oil and air filter annually, or every 50 hours of use, to maintain optimal engine performance.
Seasonal Storage: Before storing the mower for the winter, stabilize the fuel, change the oil, and disconnect the battery. This prevents fuel system problems and prolongs battery life.
