STORING THe MOWeR
the following steps should be taken in order to prepare the lawn mower for storage.
•
Clean the mower as described in the previous section.
•
inspect the blade, and replace it or sharpen it, if required (refer to the Maintenance
section).
•
lubricate the mower (refer to the Maintenance section).

Store the mower in a dry, clean location. do not store it next to corrosive materials, such
as fertilizer or rock salt.
•
Store the mower indoors, in a cool, dry place, out of the reach of children. do not cover the
lawn mower with a solid plastic sheet. Plastic coverings trap moisture around the mower,
which causes rust and corrosion.

every two months when not in use in order to extend its life.

Store it in a secure location out of the reach of children. Removal of the battery is not
required for storage.

•
Fully loosen the handle knobs on the sides of the handle and fold the upper handle
down.
•
Push inward on each side of the lower handle, and lift the sides of the lower handle
past the edges of the handle mounting brackets. Avoid pinching or trapping any
cables or fingers.
