SECTION 9: OFF-SEASON STORAGE
The following steps should be taken to prepare the lawn
mower for storage.
• Make certain the power supply is disconnected.
• Clean mower as instructed in previous section.
• Inspect and replace/sharpen blade if required.
Refer to the Maintenance section on page 12.
• Lubricate the mower as instructed on page 13.
• Store mower in a dry, clean area. Do not store next
to corrosive materials, such as fertilizer and rock
salt.
• Wipe extension cord to remove any foreign
substance such as oil or stains. Replace extension
cord if cut or damaged in any way.
• Wind cord in a series of equal loops on each side of
your hand to prevent it from tangling.
• Store mower indoors, in a cool, dry place, out of
reach of children. Do not cover lawn mower with a
solid plastic sheet. Any plastic covering traps
moisture around the mower which promotes rust
and corrosion.
The handle may be folded away completely for
storage.
• Remove grass bag.
• Loosen the hand knobs on the sides of the handle,
and fold the upper handle down.
• Remove the hairpin clips, pull outward on each side
of the lower handle, and lift the sides of the lower
handle past the edges of the handle mounting
brackets. Fold the lower handle forward. Make sure
not to bend or kink the power cord.
