GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS
The warranty on this lawn mower does not cover items
that have been subjected to operator abuse or negli-
gence. To receive full value from the warranty, opera-
tor must maintain mower as instructed in this manual.
Some adjustments will need to be made periodically
to properly maintain your unit. At least once a season,
check to see if you should make any of the adjustments
described in the Service and Adjustments section of this
manual.
• At least once a year, replace the spark plug, clean or
replace air filter element and check blade for wear.
A new spark plug and clean/new air filter element
assure proper air-fuel mixture and help your engine
run better and last longer.
• Follow the maintenance schedule in this manual.
BEFORE EACH USE
1. Check engine oil level.
2. Check for loose fasteners.
