Maintenance is vital… make sure you grease every fitting too… there’s an annoying one on the drive shaft thing under that little rectangle box in between where your feet would be on the deck… that ones really important.
Get used to the catcher on the back… even after years it’s still easy to accidentally bump into stuff… if you get stuck trying to go up a hill, turn the machine around and go reverse up.
Also, there’s two variations of tires that are fat or slim… the fat ones are known to accidentally rub into vinyl fences and leave tire marks.
Last but not least, if your catcher’s sensor doesn’t work… you can skip fixing it just know that when you start to see grass fly up on you and warm air hitting your face… to disengage the blades because it’s full.
Pro tip: If you’re mechanically inclined, you can set it up to mulch instead of catching the clippings. Requires a lift for sure.

They are everywhere on that thing… replacing belts is a real knuckle buster too. Not sure what your property size is but consider swapping the seat out for one of the newer ones. You’re back will thank you… also don’t ride it with your wallet in your back pocket… I messed my back up bad years ago learning it the hard way lmao
@Vic
