GENERAL
RECOMMENDATIONS
1.
The owner's
responsibility
is to maintain
this product.
This will
extend
the life of the product
and is also necessary
to maintain
warranty
coverage.
2.
Check the spark plug, drive brake,
lubricate
the unit, and clean
the air filter once a year.
3.
Check the fasteners.
Make sure all fasteners
are tight.
4.
Follow
the Maintenance
and the Service
And Adjustment
sec-
tion to keep the unit in good operating
condition.
WARNING:
Before you make an inspection,
adjust-
,_
ment, or repair to the unit, disconnect the wire to the
spark plug. Remove the wire from the spark plug to
prevent the engine from starting by accident.
Maintenance,
replacement,
or repair of the emission
control devices
and systems
may
be performed
by any Sears
or other
qualified
service
dealer.
Regular
maintenance
will improve
the performance
and extend
the life of the engine.
CHECK THE TIRES
Check the air pressure
in the tires. Tires with too much air pressure
will cause
the unit to ride rough.
Also,
the wrong
air pressure
will
keep the mower
housing
from cutting
level. The correct
air pressure
(PSI) is shown
on the side of the tire.
