IMPORTANT INFORMATION
DO NOT add any type of tire liner or foam fill
material to the tires. Excessive loads created
by foam filled tires will cause premature
failures.
Only use O.E.M. specified tires.
Cleaning
Regular cleaning and washing, especially under the
mower deck, will increase the machine’s life-span.
Make it a habit to clean the machine directly after use
(after it is cooled), before the debris sticks.
Use compressed air to clean the top side of mower
deck. For cleaning the underside of the deck, use the
cleanout port.
Attach the connect coupler (from the accessory
packet) to any garden hose. After mowing, snap the
hose to the cleanout port on the deck and turn on the
water supply.
Restart the mower and engage the blades to use the
spinning action to wash away debris. Make sure the
hose is away from the mower blades.
Avoid spraying water on the engine and electrical
components.
When cleaning is complete, turn off the engine, turn
off the water supply to the hose and then disconnect
the connect coupler from the deck.
Allow the mower to dry completely before storage.

cleaning and washing.
Hardware
Check daily. Inspect the entire machine for loose or
missing hardware.
