Perform regular maintenance by checking and replacing the air filter, changing the engine oil, inspecting the blades for sharpness, lubricating moving parts, and checking tire pressure. Refer to the user manual for specific intervals and procedures.
If the mower doesn't start, check the battery connections, ensure the fuel tank is filled with fresh gasoline, inspect the spark plug for wear, and make sure the safety switches are engaged.
Uneven cutting may be due to dull blades, uneven tire pressure, or a misaligned deck. Sharpen or replace the blades, ensure all tires have the correct pressure, and adjust the deck level according to the manual's instructions.
Use SAE 10W-30 oil for optimal performance in a wide range of temperatures. Always check the user manual for specific oil recommendations based on your climate.
To replace the blades, ensure the mower is on a flat surface, disconnect the spark plug, and use a wrench to remove the blade bolts. Install the new blades by aligning them correctly and securing the bolts tightly.
Excessive vibration can be caused by unbalanced blades, debris lodged in the deck, or loose components. Check for and remove any debris, inspect the blades for balance, and tighten any loose parts.
Change the air filter annually or after every 100 hours of operation, whichever comes first. Inspect it more frequently if you operate the mower in dusty conditions.
It is not recommended to mow wet grass as it can lead to uneven cutting, clog the mower deck, and cause slipping hazards. Wait until the grass is dry for best results.
Adjust the cutting height by using the lever located near the driver's seat. Refer to the mower's manual to find the recommended settings for different grass types and conditions.
Turn off the mower, disconnect the spark plug, and safely remove grass clippings and debris with a stick or brush. Avoid using your hands directly to prevent injury.
