Maintenance Tips
- Belt Replacement: Inspect your deck and drive belts annually for wear and tear. Replace belts every 2-3 years, or sooner if you notice cracks, fraying, or slippage.
- Blade Sharpening: Sharpen your mower blades at least twice per season to ensure a clean cut and prevent tearing the grass. Dull blades can also strain the engine.
- Filter Changes: Replace the air filter and oil filter annually, or more frequently if you mow in dusty conditions. Clean filters allow the engine to breathe properly and extend its lifespan.
- Seasonal Storage: Before storing your mower for the winter, stabilize the fuel, change the oil, and disconnect the battery. This will help prevent fuel system problems and ensure a smooth start-up in the spring.
