GENERAL
RECOMMENDATIONS
The warranty on this lawn mower does
not cover items that have been subjected
to operator abuse or negligence.
To
receive full value from the warranty,
operator must maintain mower as
instructed in this manual.
Some adjustments
will need to be made
periodically to properly maintain your unit.
All adjustments
in the Service and
Adjustments
section of this manual should
be checked at least once each season.
• Once a year, replace the spark plug,
replace air filter element and check
blade for wear.
A new spark plug and
clean/new
air filter element
assures
proper air-fuel mixture and helps your
engine run better and last longer.
• Follow the maintenance
schedule
in
this manual.
BEFORE
EACH
USE
• Check engine oil level.
• Check for loose fasteners.
LUBRICATION
Keep unit well lubricated
(See "LUBRICA-
TION CHART").
LUBRICATION
CHART

(_) Handle bracket mounting pin
(_) Spray lubricant
_) Refer to Maintenance "ENGINE" section.
IMPORTANT:
Do not oil or grease plastic
wheel bearings. Viscous lubricants will attract
dust and dirt that will shorten the life of the self
lubricating bearings. If you feel they must be
lubricated, use only a dry, powdered graphite
type lubricant sparingly.
