Maintenance Tips
- Deck Belt Replacement: Inspect the deck belt regularly for cracks or wear. Replace every 200-300 hours of use or when signs of damage are visible to ensure optimal cutting performance.
- Blade Sharpening: Sharpen mower blades at least once a season, or more frequently if you notice uneven cutting or excessive vibration. Dull blades tear grass, making it susceptible to disease.
- Filter Changes: Change the engine oil and air filter according to the manufacturer's recommendations, typically every 50 hours of use. Clean air and oil are essential for engine longevity.
- Seasonal Storage: Before storing the D130 for the winter, stabilize the fuel, change the oil, and disconnect the battery. Store in a dry place to prevent corrosion.
