Belt Inspection: Regularly inspect the deck and drive belts for cracks, fraying, or wear. Replace belts every 2-3 years or as needed to maintain optimal performance.
Blade Sharpening: Sharpen mower blades at least once a season, or more frequently if you mow over sandy or abrasive surfaces. Sharp blades ensure a clean cut and reduce stress on the mower.
