Loading and Unloading
Position the mower so all four wheels are on the bed of the transport
vehicle. Tie the mower down with rope or straps, and block the
wheels. Keep the tie-down rope or straps away from the controls,
adjustment levers, cables, and the carburetor.
To prevent losing control of or damaging the mower, do not use the
drive system when going up or down a loading ramp.
To prevent damaging the drive system, do not engage the clutch
when the mower is rolling backwards.
1. Turn the fuel valve to the OFF position.
2. Use a suitable loading ramp.
Adjust the loading ramp so
that it is inclined at an angle of
less than 15°. If a loading
ramp is not available, two
people should lift the mower
on and off the transport vehicle while keeping the mower level.
STORAGE
Proper storage is essential for keeping your lawn mower troublefree
and looking good. The following steps will help protect the mower
from rust and corrosion, and make the engine easier to start when you
use the lawn mower again.
Cleaning
1. Wash the lawn mower, including the underside of the mower deck.
Engine
Wash the engine by hand, and be careful to prevent water from
entering the air cleaner.
Using a garden hose or pressure washing equipment can force
water into the air cleaner. Water in the air cleaner will soak the
filters and can enter the carburetor or engine cylinder, causing
damage.
Water contacting a hot engine can cause damage. If the engine
has been running, allow it to cool for at least a half hour before
washing.
Mower Deck
If using a garden hose or pressure washing equipment to clean the
mower deck, be careful to avoid getting water into controls and
cables, or anywhere near the engine air cleaner or muffler
opening.
Before washing the underside of the mower deck, be sure the
throttle lever is in the STOP position and the fuel valve is in the
OFF position. Tilt the mower to the right so the fuel cap is up. This
will help to prevent fuel leakage and hard starting due to carburetor
flooding. Wear heavy gloves to protect your hands from the
blade(s).
Grass Bag
Remove the bag from the mower, and wash it with a garden hose
or pressure washing equipment. Allow the bag to dry completely
before storage.
2. After washing the lawn mower, wipe dry all accessible surfaces.
3. With the mower in an upright position, start the engine outdoors,
and let it run until it reaches normal operating temperature to
evaporate any water remaining on the engine.
4. Stop the engine and allow it to cool.
5. After the lawn mower is clean and dry, touch up any damaged
paint, and coat other areas that may rust with a light film of oil.
Fuel
Depending on the region where you operate your equipment, fuel
formulations may deteriorate and oxidize rapidly. Fuel deterioration
and oxidation can occur in as little as 30 days and may cause damage
to the carburetor and/or fuel system. Please check with your servicing
dealer for local storage recommendations.
Petrol will oxidize and deteriorate in storage. Old petrol will cause
hard starting, and it leaves gum deposits that clog the fuel system. If
the petrol in your mower deteriorates during storage, you may need to
have the carburetor and other fuel system components serviced or
replaced.
The length of time that petrol can be left in your fuel tank and
carburetor without causing functional problems will vary with such
factors as blend, your storage temperatures, and whether the fuel
tank is partially or completely filled. The air in a partially filled fuel tank
promotes fuel deterioration. Very warm storage temperatures
accelerate fuel deterioration. Fuel deterioration problems may occur
within a few months, or even less if the petrol was not fresh when you
filled the fuel tank.
Short Term Storage (30-90 days)
If your equipment will not be used for 30 to 90 days, we recommend
the following to prevent fuel-related problems:
1. Add fuel stabilizer following the manufacturer’s instructions.
When adding a fuel stabilizer, fill the fuel tank with fresh gasoline. If
only partially filled, air in the tank will promote fuel deterioration
during storage. If you keep a container of gasoline for refueling, be
sure that it contains only fresh gasoline.
If it will take more than 3 months to use the fuel in your storage
container, we suggest adding a fuel stabilizer to the fuel when you
fill the container.
2. After adding a fuel stabilizer, run the engine outdoors for
10 minutes to be sure that treated gasoline has replaced the
untreated gasoline in the carburetor.
3. Turn the fuel valve to the OFF position.
4. Continue to run the engine until it stops from the lack of fuel in the
carburetor fuel bowl. Running time should be less than 3 minutes.
Note:
– All stabilizers have a shelf life and their performance will
deteriorate over time.
– Fuel stabilizers will not reconstitute stale fuel.
Long Term or Seasonal Storage (greater than 90 days)
Start the engine and allow it to run long enough to empty all the
gasoline from the entire fuel system (including the fuel tank). Do not
allow gasoline to remain in your engine for more than 90 days of
inactivity.
Fuel system damage or engine performance problems resulting from
neglected storage preparation are not covered under the Distributor’s
Warranty.
Engine Oil
Change the engine oil (page 14).
