Cleaning and storage of a petrol lawnmower
 
A few simple operations performed throughout the year will guarantee your lawnmower a long service life:
 
Precautions to take
 
Before carrying out any maintenance, make sure the engine is switched off and consult the instructions for use.
 
Cleaning after each use
 
  • Clean the inside of your mower's cutting deck with a scraper or a brush to remove any grass cuttings stuck to it.
  • Clean the transmission system, removing any grass that has built up in it.
 
Storage
 
Gas lawnmowers
  • Store your lawnmower in a dry, covered place.
  • To reduce the space it takes up, you may remove its handlebar (if the model allows it), following the assembly operations in reverse order.
  • Before putting away your mower for the winter, remember to have it serviced annually by an Outils WOLF Approved Specialist.
