how do i clean under my greenworks cordless mower deck? it's caked with grass.

— asked by Ben

You'll want to clean that out to keep your cut even and prevent corrosion. Here's the safe way to do it.

  1. First, turn the mower off and pull out the battery pack. This is non-negotiable for safety.
  2. Tip the mower onto its side. Important: make sure the side with the battery port, controls, and the 'Smart Pace' dial is facing upward. You don't want any fluids or debris getting into those components.
  3. Use a scraper, a stiff brush, or a hose to remove the caked-on grass clippings and dirt from the underside of the deck. Avoid using excessive water pressure directly on the motor area.
  4. Let everything dry completely before you put the battery back in and use the mower again.

IF THAT DIDN'T WORK: If grass is really welded on, let it soak with water for a bit to soften it up before scraping. Don't use metal tools that could gouge the deck coating.

HEADS UP: Clean the deck after every few uses, especially if the grass was damp. It makes the job much easier and extends the life of your mower.
