MAINTENANCE
• When servicing the mower, use only identical replacement parts that are available from the
manufacturer. In order to obtain replacement parts, call the toll-free helpline, at 1-800-317-
7833. The use of parts that do not meet the original equipment specifications may lead to
improper performance, and may compromise safety.
• Before cleaning, repairing, or inspecting, verify that the blade and all moving parts have come
to a complete stop. Remove the battery when making any adjustments or when any of the four
wheels must be lifted off the ground.
• Follow the instructions for lubricating and changing accessories.
• Keep the handles dry, clean, and free of oil and grease.
• In order to reduce the risk of fire, keep the motor free of grass, leaves, and debris build-up.
• Check the blade and motor mounting bolts for proper tightness frequently. Visually inspect
blade for damage (e.g., bent, cracked, or worn).
• For best and safest performance, maintain the mower with care. Keep the mower blade sharp
and clean. Mower blades are sharp, and can cut. Wrap the blades or wear gloves, and use
extra caution when servicing.
• Keep all nuts, bolts, and screws tight in order to be sure that the equipment is in safe working
condition.
• Never tamper with safety devices. Check them regularly for proper operation.
• After striking a foreign object, stop the motor. Thoroughly inspect the mower for any damage.
Repair any damage before operating the mower.
• The grass catcher components, discharge cover, and trail shield are subject to wear and
damage, which could expose moving parts or allow objects to be thrown. As a safety
precaution, check these components frequently, and immediately replace any parts that show
signs of wear, or that are cracked or broken. Use original equipment manufacturer's (OEM)
parts only, as listed in this manual.
• When it is not in use, store the mower indoors in a dry area, and out of the reach of children.
