Cleaning & Storage

Cleaning the mower body

Do not use a water hose around
the engine. It may contaminate fuel
or enter ignition system & result in
poor running & starting problems.
There is a direct relationship between the lawnmower's
life and the care and attention given to the
lawnmower, both during and after operation. After
use it is important that the lawnmower is thoroughly
cleaned down and inspected so that it will be in good
working order the next time it is required. Disconnect
the spark plug lead and thoroughly clean the engine,
underside of the chassis, wheels and grass catcher.
Your rotary lawnmower features a wash nozzle for
easy cleaning of the underside of the body. Simply
run the lawnmower at a moderate speed, place a
garden hose into the wash nozzle and turn on the
water supply for two to three minutes. The action of
the rotating blade system will dislodge most grass and
debris build up.

Cleaning the catcher

Simply hose out the catcher and screen after each use
to ensure maximum mower performance and catcher
fill.
Muffler
Care should be taken when
cleaning around the muffler.
Ensure that the muffler is cool
enough to touch before cleaning.
Always clean around the muffler area regularly to
reduce the risk of fire and damaging the mower. Brush
the grass, dirt or combustible debris from the muffler.
