Daily Checklist for the DR SCOUT FIELD and BRUSH MOWER

To help maintain your DR SCOUT FIELD and BRUSH MOWER for optimum performance, we recommend
you follow this checklist each time you use your machine.

[ ] OIL: With the machine on a level surface, check the engine oil level with the dipstick and add more

if necessary (only add oil to the level indicated on the dipstick - DO NOT OVERFILL). Use
SAE 30 high detergent motor oil.

[ ] GAS: Fill the gas tank with clean, fresh, unleaded gasoline.

[ ] ENGINE AIR COOLING SYSTEM: It is very important to keep the engine clean of debris. Remove

grass and other built-up materials from the air intake screen
before, during and after you mow. Regularly remove debris
from the blower housing and cooling fins. A dirty engine
retains heat and can cause damage to the internal engine parts.

[ ] BELTS: Check the belts for wear, proper alignment and tension.

[ ] BLADE: Check the blade for tightness, nicks and wear. Remove any wrapped weeds and grass from

the blade bearing housing to prevent buildup.

[ ] GENERAL CONDITION: Check the general condition of the machine, e.g.; nuts, bolts, welds etc.
