Maintenance Tips

Belt Replacement: Inspect belts regularly for wear and tear. Replace the deck belt (part number varies by year) every 200-300 hours of operation or when you notice slippage or cracking.
Blade Sharpening: Sharpen mower blades at least once a season or more frequently if you notice a decrease in cutting performance. Dull blades can tear the grass and damage your lawn.
Filter Changes: Change the engine oil and air filter annually, or every 50 hours of operation, to ensure optimal engine performance. Check the fuel filter for debris and replace as needed.
Seasonal Storage: Before storing your X310 for the winter, stabilize the fuel, change the oil and filter, grease all fittings, and disconnect the battery. Store the mower in a dry, sheltered location.
