Please school me. I need to know this

So I bought my first lawn mower this past spring. With winter approaching I need some advice on winter storage.

When should I winterize the lawnmower? Am I okay with keeping it in the backyard shed for the winter? What all needs to happen to properly winterize it?

I've never owned a lawnmower before this one.

It's a Troy-Bilt 21" Push mower, non self propeled

Thanks guys

 

Put some stabelizer in the fuel, check or replace air filter if needed, change the oil and call it a winter. Did you get a manual with it?

 

Sta-Bil and you'll be fine.

 

Sta-bil and clean underside good, change oil then run it on driveway a few mins. to get the sta-bil through the carb. cool down and cover in storage.

 

Also good time to re-sharpen the blade...

If you got the riding lawn mower take the battery out for the winter and store it in your house.

 

Yeah I have the manual. I was wondering what you guys did. Guess its really not that complacted.

Thanks for the info
