Background
The Craftsman 247.37030 is a walk-behind lawn mower. It is designed for residential use, featuring a 21-inch steel cutting deck. This mower is powered by a Briggs & Stratton 675 series OHV engine with a displacement of 190cc. It uses unleaded gasoline as fuel and SAE 30 oil. The cutting height can be adjusted between 1 to 3 inches using a dual lever. The mower employs a blade brake clutch system which can stop the blade within 3 seconds of releasing the blade control bail. It is equipped with 7-inch front wheels and 8-inch rear wheels and uses a recoil rope for starting.
For regular maintenance, the engine oil needs to be checked before each use and changed after the first 5 hours of operation, then every 50 hours or at the end of each season. The air filter requires frequent inspection and cleaning after every 25 hours of use, with an annual replacement recommended. The mower blade should be sharpened or replaced as needed, preferably annually. The blade control pivot points need lubrication with light oil at least once a year, and the underside of the mower deck should be cleaned yearly to remove buildup.
