Regularly inspect and replace the mower deck belt every 100-200 hours of use or if you notice signs of wear, such as cracking or fraying.
Sharpen the mower blades at least twice a season to ensure a clean cut and prevent tearing of the grass, which can lead to disease.
Change the engine oil and filter every 50 hours of operation or at least once a year to maintain optimal engine performance.
Before storing the mower for the winter, stabilize the fuel with a fuel stabilizer, disconnect the battery, and store it in a cool, dry place.
