DECK CLEANING
After each use remove grass buildup
from under the mower deck. Exces-
sive grass buildup will interfere with
the operation and performance of
the mower deck. Excessive grass
buildup may also cause component
failure.
1. Park machine on hard level surface, stop
engine and set the park brake. Remove
key from the ignition switch.
2. Position the mower deck in the transport
(all the way up) setting.
3. Lift the front of the machine, and support
the machine using jack stands or other
equivalent safety blocks. Do NOT rely
solely on mechanical or hydraulic jacks
or lifts for support. Always use adequate
wheel chocks on tires remaining on the
ground.
4. Use a long flat bar to clean under the
deck, to avoid positioning yourself under
the machine.
5. Clean out all grass and debris build-up
from the underside of the deck, around
blade spindles and the deck discharge
chute.
