General Recommendations
• Always observe safety rules when performing any
maintenance.
• The warranty on this lawn mower does not cover items that
have been subjected to operator abuse or negligence. To
receive full value from warranty, operator must maintain
the lawn mower as instructed here.
• All adjustments should be checked at least once each
season.
• Periodically check all fasteners and make sure these are
tight.
WARNING:
Always stop the motor and disconnect
from the power source before cleaning, lubricating
or performing any repairs or maintenance on the
lawn mower.
Lubrication
1. Lubricate the wheels at least once a season with light oil (or
motor oil). If wheels are removed for any reason, lubricate
surface of the pivot arm and inner surface of the wheel
with light oil. See Fig. 6-1.
2. Lubricate the torsion spring and pivot point on the rear
discharge door and side mulch plug periodically with light
oil to prevent rust. See Fig. 6-1.

Deck Care
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of electric shock, do
not expose the mower to water.
The underside of mower deck should be cleaned after each use
as grass clippings, leaves, dirt and other debris will accumulate.
This accumulation of grass clippings, etc., is undesirable as it will
promote rust and corrosion.
1. Remove any buildup of grass and leaves on or around the
motor cover (do not use water). Wipe the mower clean with
a dry cloth occasionally.
2. If debris is allowed to build up on the underside of the unit,
tilt the mower forward or on its side and scrape it clean
with a suitable tool.
IMPORTANT: Do not use a pressure washer or garden hose
to clean your unit. These may cause damage to electric
components, or the electric motor. The use of water will
result in shortened life and reduce serviceability.
Resetting Overload Protection Switch
This mower is equipped with an overload protection switch to
prevent overheating damage to the motor.
If the overload protection switch pops out:
1. Release the motor/blade control handle and do NOT re-
start the mower for at least one minute, allowing for the
motor time to cool.
2. Press the overload protection switch inward to reset. See
Fig. 3-8 in Assembly & Set-Up section.
If the overload protection switch pops out shortly after resetting:
1. Release the motor/blade control handle and do NOT re-
start the mower for at least 15 minutes to allow the motor
extra time to cool.
2. Press the overload protection switch inward to reset.
3. Restart unit.
NOTE: If the overload protection switch pops out
repeatedly during operation or will not remain in when
attempting to reset, contact your Authorized Service
Center to arrange for repair.
