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 Adjust-
ments section of this manual should be
checked at least once each season.
• 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
• Check engine oil level.
• Check for loose fasteners.
LUBRICATION
Keep unit well lubricated
(See
"LUBRI-
CATION
CHART").

(_) Spray lubricant
_) See "ENGINE" in Maintenance section.
IMPORTANT:
Do not oil or grease
plastic wheel bearings.
Viscous lubri-
cants will attract dust and dirt that will
shorten the life of the self-lubricating
bearings.
If you feel they must be
lubricated, use only a dry, powdered
graphite type lubricant sparingly.
