use a spray lubricant. Apply the oil to both sides
of pivot points. Wipe off any excess. Start engine

General Purpose Lubrication: Use any NLGI
Grade 2 multi-purpose grease. Shell Albida EP2 is
recommended. Shell Albida EP 2 is a red-colored
multi-purpose grease designed for heavy-duty
bearing applications. It has high base oil viscosity
for mechanical stability, has been formulated for
high load, low-speed applications and has excellent
lubrication and corrosion protection.
NOTE: This Operator's Manual covers several models. Mower features may vary by
model. Not all features in this manual are applicable to all mower models and the
mower depicted may differ from yours.
POST-OPERATION MOWER CARE
After each operation of the mower, the following procedures should be implemented
to extend the life of your mower and ensure safe operating conditions.
Failure to follow these recommendations may result in serious injury to
yourself or others and may cause damage to the mower.
Cleaning the Underside of the Deck
Rinse grass clippings from the deck's underside and prevent the buildup of
corrosive chemicals.
Make certain the mower's discharge chute is directed AWAY from people,
your house, garage, parked cars, etc.
1. Disengage the PTO, set the parking brake and stop the engine.
2. Use a hose to spray the underside of the deck.
NOTE: Make sure that the hose is not routed under the deck and is clear of all
moving parts.
3. After cleaning your deck, return to the operator's position and engage the PTO.
Keep the deck running for a minimum of two minutes, allowing the underside of
the deck to thoroughly dry.

Cleaning the Mower
If the mower has been recently run, the engine, muffler, and surrounding
metal surfaces will be hot and can cause burns to the skin. Let the engine
cool for at least 5 minutes. Exercise caution to avoid burns.
Your mower should be cleaned after each use and under certain conditions, i.e. dry
conditions and/or mulching situations, additional cleaning may be necessary.
One of the best ways to keep your mower running efficiently and to reduce fire risk
is to regularly remove debris buildup from the mower. Follow the recommendations
below and contact your authorized dealer with any questions.
• Allow the machine to cool in an open area before cleaning.
• Do not use water on any part of the mower except the underside of the cutting
deck. Doing so can cause damage to the mower's spindle bearings, electrical
system and engine, leading to premature failures. The use of compressed air and/
or leaf blower will help keep the mower clean.
• Clean around the exhaust manifold, fuses, all wiring and harnesses, muffler pipe,
muffler shield, engine intake screens and cooling fins, etc (Figure 31).
