MAINTENANCE
than the rear, remove the foot plate access
the front deck adjustment. With an adjustable
wrench, loosen the rear jam nut on the front
suspension linkage.
Make adjustment to level with the front lift link
nut. Clockwise raises the front of the mower,
counter clockwise will lower the front. Adjust
the nut until rear blade tip is 1/4" to 3/8"
higher than the front blade tip.
NOTE: This will position the mower deck in a
standard measurement position. Depending on
the type of grass being mowed or environmental
conditions, additional adjustments may be
required to get the desired cut.

Caster Wheels

Check every 200 hours. Check that wheels rotate
freely.
Foam filled tires or solid tires will void the
warranty.
To replace, remove nut and caster bolt. Pull the
wheel out of the yoke and take care with the
spacer. Reinstall in reverse order. Tighten the
caster bolt and torque to 45 ft-lbs (61 Nm).

Cleaning

Regular cleaning, especially under the mower
deck, will increase the machine's life-span. Clean
the machine directly after use (after it is cooled),
before the debris sticks.
Do not spray water on the top of the mower deck.
Use compressed air to clean the top side of the
mower deck. Do not use a high pressure washer
or steam cleaner. Avoid spraying engine and
electrical components with water.
Regularly clean the underside of the deck with
normal water pressure. Attach the quick connect
(from the accessory packet) to any garden hose.
After mowing, snap the hose to the cleanout port
and turn on water supply.
Restart the mower and engage the blades to use
the spinning action to wash away debris. Make
sure the hose is away from the mower blades.
Do not rinse hot surfaces with cold water. Let unit
cool before washing.
CAUTION! Wear eye protection when
cleaning or washing the mower.
Hardware
Check daily. Inspect the entire machine for loose
or missing hardware.
