every eight (8) hours of operation. Check the blades for excessive wear and sharpness every four to eight (4-8) hours of operation. Sharpen dull blades. Replace blades when they become excessively worn. The mower should not be used after the blades or other part of the mower strikes a foreign object, until conducting a thorough inspection and any damage is repaired. Make sure the chute deflector is always in place and operating properly.
• The grass discharge chute deflector must be installed at all times and in the down position except that it may be raised when cleaning out the deck, or a grass catcher is installed or a mulch kit and block-off plate is properly installed. • If the mower discharges grass clogs, turn off the blade clutch switch, apply the parking brake, stop the engine and remove the key before removing obstruction(s).
1.15 Operation on Slopes WARNING DO NOT operate on steep slopes. DO NOT operate the mower on slopes steeper than you can feel secure about the traction of the tires and the stability of the mower.
