To start the mower, ensure the fuel valve is open, the engine switch is in the "On" position, and the throttle is set to "Choke" for a cold start. Pull the starter handle firmly.
Regular maintenance includes checking and changing the oil, inspecting and cleaning the air filter, sharpening the blades, and checking the spark plug.
Check the fuel level, ensure the spark plug is connected, verify the air filter is clean, and ensure the mower is not clogged with grass.
Ensure the blades are sharp, the deck is clean, and the grass is not too wet or too long before mowing.
Check for debris lodged under the mower deck, inspect the blade for damage or imbalance, and ensure all nuts and bolts are tight.
Locate the height adjustment levers on each wheel and move them to the desired position to change the cutting height.
Use SAE 30 or 10W-30 oil that meets API service classification SJ or higher.
Disconnect the spark plug, tilt the mower, and use a garden hose or scraper to remove grass clippings and debris from the deck.
Check the drive belt for wear or damage, ensure the drive control cable is properly adjusted, and inspect the transmission for issues.
Sharpen the blades at least once per mowing season or more frequently if the mower is used often.
