Daily Checklist for the DR
®
TRIMMER/MOWER
™
To help maintain your DR
®
for optimum performance, we recommend you
follow this checklist each time you use your machine.
9 GAS: Fill the gas tank with clean, fresh, unleaded gas.
9 OIL: Check the oil level with the dipstick and add more if necessary (only add
oil to the level indicated on the dipstick—do not overfill). Use SAE30 high
detergent oil.
9 SPARK PLUG: Clean the spark plug and replace if needed.
9 AIR FILTER: A clean air filter will mean a much easier-starting and better
running engine. You should replace the paper air filter after every 25 hours of
use, more frequently if you are trimming and mowing in dusty conditions.
9 ENGINE AIR COOLING SYSTEM: It is very important to keep the engine
clean of debris. Remove grass and other built-up materials from the air intake
screen before, during and after you mow. Regularly remove debris from the
blower housing and cooling fins. A dirty engine retains heat and can cause
damage to the internal engine parts.
9 BELT: Check the belt for wear, proper alignment and tension.
9 CUTTING CORDS: Replace broken or frayed cords.
9 MOW-BALL
™
SUPPORT: Check the Mow-Ball
™
Support for wear.
