IMPORTANT: DO NOT clean with a high pressure
wash or store unit outdoors to aid in prevention of rust
or corrosion. Water can seep into sealed bearings,
which are sealed against dirt and debris only, causing
reduced component life.
Keep all nuts, bolts and screws tight and know unit is in
safe working condition. Check all hardware at regular
intervals.
Inspection
Inspect unit for visible signs of wear, breakage or
damage. Order any parts required and make
necessary repairs to avoid delays when beginning use
again.
Grass Bag
Remove Grass Bag and clean out all debris prior to
storage. Grass Bag may be stored in position on
mower. Keep Grass Bag dry during storage.

Secure rollers in middle position for average lawn
mowing.

1. Use lowest roller position when mowing in higher
cutting heights and rough terrain to guard against
most scalping.
2. Use highest roller position when cutting at lowest
cutting height.
For smoothest appearing cut when using frame
suspended models with anti-scalp rollers, keep
anti-scalp rollers adjusted to the minimum 1/2" (13 mm)
above flat hard smooth surface after setting height of
cut.
NOTE: The rollers are intended for anti-scalping, not
for controlling cutting height.
