as follows:
the hand knobs which secure the upper and lower
handles.
MOWER
• Clean underside of mower housing (See "CLEAN-
ING" in Maintenance section of manual),
• Inspect and replace/sharpen blade, if required (See
"BLADE CARE" in Maintenance section of manual).
• Lubricate as shown in Service Recommendation
chart below.
• Make sure motor/blade control is in OFF (released)
position for storage.
HANDLE
The handle may be folded away completely for storage.
• Remove the grass bag.
• Loosen the hand knobs on the sides of the handle,
and let the upper handle fold down to the rear.
• Pull outward on the handle locks on each side of the
lower handle, and lift the sides of the lower handle
past the locks as shown in figure 10. Fold the lower
handle forward.
CAUTION: When folding the handle for storage or
transportation, be careful not to bend or kink the
power cord.

EXTENSIONCORD
• Replace extension cord if cut or abraded.
• Extension cord should be wiped dry of any foreign
substances such as oil or stains.
• Wind cord and store in cool, dry place (See cord
winding instruction on page 9).
OTHER
Do not store your mower under any plastic cover.
Plastic cannot breathe which allows condensation to
form and cause the metal components of your mower
to rust.

LUBRICATION
MOTOR
The motor on your mower does not require lubrication.
WHEELS
DO NOT oil or grease the wheel bearings. Viscous lubricants will attract dust and dirt that will shorten the life
of the self-lubricating wheel bearings. If you feel the wheels must be lubricated, use only a dry, silicone type lubri-
cant sparingly.
