Belt Replacement: Inspect belts regularly for wear and tear. Replace deck belts every 200-300 hours or when cracks and fraying are visible.
Blade Sharpening: Sharpen mower blades at least twice per season, or more frequently if you mow in sandy conditions. Dull blades tear grass, leading to browning and disease.
Filter Changes: Change the engine oil and filter every 50 hours of operation or annually, whichever comes first. A clean air filter is also crucial for engine performance.
Seasonal Storage: Before storing your Z355E for the winter, stabilize the fuel, change the oil and filter, and disconnect the battery. Store the mower in a dry location.
