1. With the engine running on a flat paved surface, spray
a stream of water in front of the right rear wheel
(Figure 26).
The water will splash into the path of the blade,
cleaning out the clippings.
2. When no more clippings come out, stop the water and
move the machine to a dry area.
3. Run the engine for a few minutes to dry the housing
to prevent it from rusting.
