b. Dry debris under the covers can be blown out with a leaf blower or wet clippings hosed out
with water.

a. Wash the underside of the mower with a water hose.
b. Avoid directing water jets at bearing housings, especially if they are still warm after use.

1. General:
a. Check the roller bearings monthly.
b. Check that the M20 bolts holding the roller to the bearings are tight.
c. Raise all three decks up off the ground.
d. Rotate the rollers by hand and check for free rotation without roughness or tightness.
e. If the roller does not turn easily or there is abnormal roller movement, the bearings may be
lacking grease and/or be worn.
f. If roughness is detected the bearings must be dismantled, cleaned, inspected and replaced if
necessary. Consult your service manager.
