CLEANING
IMPORTANT: For best performance, keep
mower housing free of built-up grass and
trash. Clean underside of mower housing
after each use.
CAUTION: Disconnect spark plug wire from
spark plug and place wire where it cannot
come in contact with the spark plug.
• Turn lawn mower on its side. Make sure air
filter and carburetor are up. Clean the
underside of your lawn mower by scraping
to remove build-up of grass and trash.
• Clean engine often to keep trash from
accumulating. A dogged engine runs hotter
and shortens engine life.
• Keepfinished surfaces and wheels free of
all gasoline, oil, etc.
• We DO NOT recommend using a garden
hose to clean lawn mower unless the
electrical system, muffler, air filter and
carburetor are covered to keep water out.
Water in engine can result in shortened
engine life.
CLEAN UNDER DRIVE COVER
Clean under drive cover at least twice a
season. Scrape underside of cover with putty
knife or similar tool to remove any build-up of
trash or grass on underside of drive cover.
