After each use, clean grass clippings and debris from the mower deck, wheels, and engine cooling fins. Use a brush or cloth. Avoid using high-pressure water directly on the engine.

• Promjena ulja: Zamijenite motorno ulje nakon prvih 5 sati rada, a zatim svakih 25 sati ili godišnje.
• Filter zraka: Redovno provjeravajte i čistite filter za zrak. Zamijenite ako je oštećen ili prekomjerno prljav.
• svjećica: Inspect the spark plug annually. Clean or replace as needed.
