Minimal care is needed to maintain your EVOLUTION mower. However,

take these steps to ensure optimal mower performance.

Avoid damage to the mower or cutting blades. Keep your mowing area

free from any debris or foreign objects such as stones, twigs, pieces of

wood, and wires. Solid objects can both damage the cutting blades and be

a safety hazard to the user, as they could be thrown uncontrollably.

Be careful to never hit stationary objects with your mower since it can

damage the components. Sudden impacts during use or storage can

cause irreparable performance issues.

Keep your mower dry. Your mower will perform better and longer if it is

kept dry. The precision ground helical blades of the cutting reel and the

stationary blade are the most vulnerable to rust, as well as the bearings

that hold the cutting reel. If your mower does get wet, dry with a cloth first

and spray the cutting reel and stationary blade with a rust preventer. Then,

spray the bearings on the sides of the cutting reel with a lubricant to

ensure that they spin freely.

Keep your mower clean. Always keep your mower clean and remove

grass deposits so it will last longer and perform better. Residual grass

clippings and dirt can be easily removed immediately after mowing using a

brush and a cloth. Pay particular attention to cleaning the area on the

sides of the cutting reel to prevent the dirt and moisture from the grass

clippings to clog the cutting reel’s shaft bearings. If grass clippings and dirt

stick to the cutting blades, it can reduce cutting performance.

The cutting blades should remain sharp for years due to the non-contact

Cutting Reel technology, provided the mower and its components are

maintained properly and not misused.

Protect your mower against weather conditions. Do not store your mower

outside since the humidity and frost can cause performance issues.

At least once a season, perform a thorough cleaning followed by an

application of a lubrication and rust preventer. The shaft bearings that hold

the cutting reel periodically require lubrication to ensure that they spin freely.

See image below. Rust preventer is needed on the ground edges of the

cutting reel and the stationary blade to ensure that they do not rust over time

due to humidity and wet grass clippings.

It is recommended that this seasonal maintenance be done at least once a

season and prior to winter storage to maintain peak performance.

Care and Mainenance

ATTENTION: Do not use solvents such as mineral spirits or kerosene

to clean your mower since they will damage the plastic and rubber

parts!

ATTENTION: Do not use a garden hose to wash your mower. Storing

the mower wet will allow rust to form and performance will be greatly

reduced.
