Sharpen or replace your mower blades at least once a season, or more frequently if you mow in sandy or abrasive conditions, to ensure a clean cut.
Inspect and replace the mower deck belt and drive belt every 100-200 hours of operation, or as soon as you notice signs of wear like cracking or fraying.
Change the engine oil and filter according to the manufacturer's recommendations, typically every 50-100 hours.
