SECTION 6:

 TROUBLESHOOTING

6.1 

Q: How do I prevent an uneven cutting pattern and increase the quality of cut?

6.1  

A: Check tire pressure, check blade sharpness (replace blades or sharpen at least once 
per year or when needed), make sure blades are tightened properly, check spring and belt 
tension, check the underside of the deck to ensure the mower deck is free of grass build-up 
and debris, make sure your machine is at full throttle, and vary your mowing pattern each 
time you cut your grass.

6.2  

Q: What should I do if my mower won’t start?

6.2  

A: Check battery charge and connection (grounds), check your fuel (make sure fuel is less 
than 30 days old and contains no water), and make sure air filter is clean (a dirty filter makes 
it more difficult for the engine to draw air). Check the integrity of the 25 amp main fuse; also 
check for any bare wires and/or bad connections.

6.3 

Q: What should I do if the blades won’t engage?

6.3 

A: Make sure the safety switch is plugged in on the bottom of seat. Check the underside of 
the PTO engager to ensure the plug is secure at switch. 

6.4 

Q: What type of fuel is recommended for my mower?

6.4 

A: We recommend that you use a name brand fuel to ensure quality. Use only Ultra Low 
Sulfur Diesel Fuel.

6.5 

Q: Do you offer touch-up paint for your mowers?

6.5 

A: Touch-up paint is available. Contact your local dealer for more information.

6.6 

Q: How durable is the electric deck lift?

6.6 

A: The actuator which controls the deck height is designed for moving loads of up to 1000 
pounds and has a static holding capability which exceeds 3,000 pounds. Our ¼˝ deck weighs 
approximately 250 pounds which is only 25% of working capability. 

6.7  Q:

 How do I clean my mower?

6.7  A: 

It is recommended that you use an air hose or blower to remove dust and debris from the mower, 

to ensure there is not a build up of grass on the mower deck and engine compartment, which 

could become a fire hazard. if you must wash the mower, ensure you run the engine to operating 

temp to dry water and engage the blades to spin off any standing water on the pulleys. Avoid 

spraying  water  onto  electrical  components  and  bearings  to  prevent  premature  failure  of  these 

parts.
