engine maintenance procedures and intervals.
NOTE: This Operator’s Manual covers several models. Riding
mower features may vary by model. Not all features in this
manual are applicable to all riding mower models and the riding
mower depicted may differ from yours.
Post-Operation Rider Care
After each operation of the rider, the following procedures
should be implemented to extend the life of your rider and
ensure safe operating conditions.
WARNING
Failure to follow these recommendations may result in
serious injury to yourself or others and may cause damage
to the rider.
CLEANING THE UNDERSIDE OF THE DECK
Deck Wash System (if equipped)
Your rider’s deck may be equipped with a water port on its
surface as part of its deck wash system.
Use the Smart Jet to rinse grass clippings from the deck’s
underside and prevent the build-up of corrosive chemicals.
Complete the following steps AFTER EACH MOWING:
1. Drive the rider to a level, clear spot on your lawn, near enough
for your garden hose to reach.
WARNING
Make certain the rider’s discharge chute is directed AWAY
from people, your house, garage, parked cars, etc.
2. Disengage the PTO, set the parking brake and stop
the engine.
3. Thread the hose coupler (packaged with your rider’s
Operator’s Manual) onto the end of your garden hose.
4. Attach the hose coupler to the water port on your deck’s
surface. See Figure 21 on page 21.
