Belt Inspection: Regularly inspect the mower deck and drive belts for wear and tear. Replace belts every 200-300 hours or as needed to maintain optimal performance.
Blade Sharpening: Sharpen your mower blades at least once a season, or more frequently if you notice a decline in cutting quality. Sharp blades provide a cleaner cut and reduce stress on the engine.
Filter Changes: Change the engine oil and air filter according to the manufacturer's recommendations, typically every 50-100 hours of use. This ensures proper engine lubrication and prevents damage from dirt and debris.
