Ensure the gear is in neutral, engage the parking brake, turn the ignition key to the start position, and release it once the engine starts.
Check the battery connections, ensure there is fuel, verify the spark plug is functioning, and inspect the fuel filter for clogs.
Change the oil every 50 hours of use or at the beginning of each mowing season, whichever comes first.
Disconnect the spark plug, elevate the mower deck, use a wrench to remove the blade bolts, and replace the blades by aligning them with the spindle.
Use unleaded gasoline with a minimum octane rating of 87 and ensure it contains no more than 10% ethanol.
Regularly sharpen the blades, adjust the tire pressure to the recommended levels, and mow at the correct height for the terrain.
Check for unbalanced blades, loose bolts, or debris caught in the mower deck that could cause vibrations.
Ensure the mower deck is level, check for dull blades, and confirm that the tire pressure is even across all tires.
Clean the terminals regularly, keep the battery fully charged, and store it in a cool, dry place during the off-season.
Check for blockages in the air intake or cooling fins, ensure proper oil level, and inspect the fan belt for any damage.
