Setup, Compatibility & Care
Initial setup involves attaching the handles and ensuring the oil and fuel reservoirs are properly filled before the first ignition. Use high-quality 4-stroke engine oil as specified in the manual.
Care Instructions:
- Post-Mow Cleaning: Brush away grass clippings from the underside of the deck after every use to prevent rust.
- Air Filter Maintenance: Clean the air filter periodically to ensure the engine breathes efficiently.
- Blade Maintenance: Inspect the blade for sharpness and balance annually; a dull blade will tear the grass rather than cut it, causing brown tips.
- Storage: Store the unit in a dry, ventilated shed. If storing for the winter, drain the fuel tank to prevent stale petrol from clogging the carburetor.
