CLEANING
IMPORTANT: FOR BEST PERFORMANCE, KEEP MOWER

THE UNDERSIDE OF YOUR MOWER AFTER EACH USE.

from spark plug and place wire where it
cannot come in contact with plug.
• Clean the underside of your lawn mower by scraping
to remove build-up of grass and trash.
• Clean engine often to keep trash from accumulating. A
clogged engine runs hotter and shortens engine life.
• Keep fi nished surfaces/wheels free of all gasoline, oil, etc.
• We do not recommend using a garden hose to clean
lawn mower unless the electrical system, muffl er, air
fi lter and carburetor are covered to keep water out.
Water in engine can result in shortened engine life.
CLEAN UNDER DRIVE COVER
Clean under drive cover at least twice a season. Scrape un-
derside of cover with putty knife or similar tool to remove any
build-up of trash or grass on underside of drive cover.
