and the lower handle, lift the grass bag straight up
off the adapter. The chute door will move the rope
out of the way of the bag.
• Continue to hold the lower handle and raise the
rear of the grass bag up toward your chest. The
grass bag will open and the grass clippings will
disperse.
• When replacing the grass bag, be sure the top of
the bag rests on the wire support between the
handles.

SECTION6: MAINTENANCE
WARNING: Always stop engine and dis-
connect spark plug wire before performing
any maintenance or adjustments.
CleaningMower
The underside of the mower deck should be cleaned
after each use to prevent any build-up of grass
clippings, leaves, dirt, or other debris. If this debris is
allowed to accumulate, itwill result in rust and
corrosion.
• Disconnect spark plug wire.
• Drain the gasoline from the lawn mower, or place a
piece of plastic under the gas cap.
• Tip the mower so that it rests on the housing. Keep
the side with the air cleaner facing up. Hold the
mower firmly.
• Scrape clean the underside of the deck with a
suitable tool.
• Put the mower back on its wheels on the ground. If
you had put plastic under the gas cap, make sure to
remove it now.
WARNING: Never tip the mower more than
90 degrees 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.
Lubrication
See Figure 14 for the lubrication chart.
Wheels
• Lubricate the wheels at least once a season with
light oil or engine oil. Also, if the wheels are
removed for any reason, lubricate the surface of the
axle bolt and the inner surface of the wheel with oil.
