Maintenance Tips

Check and replace the mower deck belt every 200-300 hours of use, or annually, to maintain optimal cutting performance.
Sharpen mower blades at least twice per season, or more frequently if you mow over sandy or abrasive surfaces, to ensure a clean cut and prevent tearing of the grass.
Change the engine oil and filter every 50 hours of operation, and replace the air filter annually, to keep the engine running smoothly and efficiently.
Before storing the X340 for the winter, stabilize the fuel, disconnect the battery, and store the mower in a dry, protected area to prevent damage from the elements.
