Change the oil and filter in your mower at the beginning of the season – more often in dustier areas. Check the oil before every use. A trick? Let the mower run for a bit before changing the oil. And make sure to wipe up any spills on the engine.

You can DIY if you´ve got a vice and a sharpener – just be sure to wear sturdy gloves and eye protection, and make sure the blades are properly balanced. Or play it safe and call in the pros.
4. Clean or replace the air filter
Check your manual to find out how often you should do this. Between changings, you can clean a foam filter with soap and water. Make sure it´s dry before reinstalling. Replace paper filters when they´re dirty.
5. Replace the fuel with clean, fresh fuel
Did you store it with gas in it? If so, drain the old fuel into a red gasoline can and follow hazardous waste disposal regulations.
