Maintenance Tips
- Belt Inspection: Regularly inspect the deck and drive belts for wear and tear. Replace belts every 2-3 years, or sooner if cracks or fraying are visible.
- Blade Sharpening: Sharpen the mower blades at least twice per season for a clean and healthy cut. Dull blades can damage the grass and strain the engine.
- Filter Changes: Change the engine oil and air filter annually, or more frequently if operating in dusty conditions. A clean air filter ensures optimal engine performance.
- Seasonal Storage: Before storing the mower for the winter, stabilize the fuel, change the oil, and disconnect the battery. This will help prevent corrosion and ensure easy starting in the spring.
