Maintaining 
Your Lawn 
Mower
WARNING
Always stop engine, 
disconnect spark 
plug, and ground 
against engine before 
cleaning, lubricating 
or doing any kind of 
maintenance on your 
machine.
Lubrication
1.  Lubricate pivot points on the blade control at least once 
a season with light oil. The blade control must operate 
freely in both directions. See Figure 3.
2.  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 axle bolt and inner 
surface of the wheel with light oil. See Figure 3.
3.  Lubricate the torsion spring and pivot point on the 
chute deflector periodically with light oil to prevent rust. 
See Figure 3. 
4.  Follow the accompanying engine manual for lubrication 
schedule and instruction for engine lubrication.
Engine Care
1.  Change the engine oil regularly, as instructed in the 
engine manual. Check oil level before starting engine 
every time.
2.  Service air cleaner every 25 hours under normal condi-
tions. To service the air cleaner, refer to the separate 
engine manual packed with your unit.
3.  Clean the spark plug and reset the gap to.030” at least 
once a season. Refer to the engine manual for correct 
spark plug type. Refer to Figure 4.
Mower Care
Clean underside of the mower deck after each use to 
prevent build-up of grass clippings or other debris. Follow 
steps below for this job.
1.  Disconnect spark plug wire. Drain gasoline from lawn 
mower, or place a piece of plastic under the gas cap 
See Figure 4.
2.  Tip the mower so that it rests on the housing. Keep 
the side with the air cleaner facing up. Hold the mower 
firmly.
WARNING: Never tip the mower 
more than 90 degrees in any 
directions and do not leave the 
mower tipped for any length of 
time. Oil can drain into the upper 
part of the engine causing a 
starting problem.
3.  Scrape and clean the underside of the deck with a 
suitable tool. Do not spray with water. 
4.  Put the mower back on its wheels on the ground. If you 
had put plastic under the gas cap earlier, make sure to 
remove it now.
We do not recommend 
the use of pressure 
washers or garden 
hose to clean your 
unit. These may cause 
damage bearings, or 
the engine. The use 
of water will result in 
shortened life and 
reduce serviceability.
