Before storing your DR 46" LAWN MOWER DECK, certain precautions should be
taken to protect it from deteriorations.
■
Remove any wrapped weeds from the blade bearing housings. Clean grass and
debris from the top and underneath the mower deck with a stiff brush.
■
Check the blades for nicks and wear. Replace or sharpen and balance the blades if
they become dull, or have them professionally sharpened if needed. Never try to
straighten a bent blade. Dull or bent blades can cause excessive vibration and wear.
