Question:
I just bought a HU700L walk behind mower 6 months ago. As a routine I check oil prior to use (only 10 hours so far) and run it dry with the fuel valve off following use. I went to use it and oil/gas was on the deck, crank case was full of oil/gas mix and the valve was still off. Local dealer said drain it refill and run it, just a fluke, float probably had debris in it.
Is this for real, how do I keep this incident on record so I have warranty still for future failure? If I drain and refill and then have bigger failure am I not going to be at fault for improper care and not be covered under warranty?
Thank you,
james
