SECTION 9: STORING YOUR LAWN MOWER
The following steps should be taken to prepare your
lawn mower for storage.
Clean and lubricate mower thoroughly as described
in the lubrication instructions.
IMPORTANT:
We do not recommend the use of a
pressure washer or garden hose to clean your unit. The
use of water will result in shorten life and reduce
serviceability.
Refer to engine manual for correct engine storage
instructions.
Coat mowers cutting blade with chassis grease to
prevent rusting.
Store mower in a dry, clean area. Do not store next
to corrosive materials, such as fertilizer.
NOTE: When storing any type of power equipment in a
poorly ventilated or metal storage shed, care should be
taken to rust-proof the equipment. Using a light oil or
silicone, coat the equipment, especially cables and all
moving parts.
