Don't Do This To Your Zero Turn Mower!

What happens here

The presenter gives crucial advice on post-mowing maintenance. He explicitly states not to mow wet grass, as this clogs components and causes accelerated wear and tear to the mower, including its deck, blades, and spindles. He strongly warns against rinsing the mower with water after use, labeling it as the 'worst thing you can do.' Instead, he demonstrates using a Toro Flex-Force leaf blower to thoroughly clean the mower. This dry cleaning method helps prevent rust and corrosion, which can severely damage metal parts and also protect sensitive electrical connections and components from moisture ingress, ensuring the longevity of the entire machine. Regular dry cleaning keeps the mower looking new and extends the lifespan of its various systems.

Goal: This step emphasizes the critical importance of dry cleaning the mower after each use, specifically using a leaf blower, and warns against using water, to prevent rust and damage to critical components, including the electrical systems.
