GENERAL
RECOMMENDATIONS
The warranty on this lawn mower does
not cover items that have been subjected
to operator abuse or negligence.
To
receive full value from the warranty,
operator must maintain mower as
instructed in this manual.
Some adjustments will need to be made
periodically to properly maintain your unit.
All adjustments in the Service and
Adjustments section of this manual should
be checked at least once each season.
° Once a year, replace the spark plug,
replace air filter element and check
blade for wear.
A new spark plug and
clean/new air filter element assures
proper air-fuel mixture and helps your
engine run better and last longer.
