Kawasaki Repair & Servicing
Kawasaki doesn't make lawnmowers — they make the engines that power them. Kawasaki engines are found inside ride-on mowers from John Deere, Husqvarna, Toro, and many others. When your ride-on has a Kawasaki engine, Paul knows how to service and repair it.
Paul sees Kawasaki engines in a huge number of ride-on mowers. They're the engine of choice for John Deere, Husqvarna ride-ons, and many commercial machines. Reliable engines but the V-Twins can develop oil leaks from the rocker covers and the carburettors suffer if fuel is left in over winter. Straightforward to service when you know the engine.
Service Intervals
Kawasaki recommend oil changes every 100 hours and full service annually. V-Twin engines need both spark plugs checked and the valve clearances inspected at service intervals.
Parts & Supply
Kawasaki engine parts are widely available through engine specialists and garden machinery dealers. Filters, spark plugs, and gaskets are well-stocked. Paul keeps common Kawasaki service parts on hand.

“Paul attended our home address to repair and service our ride on mower. From the first contact I could tell Paul would be a good choice. He arrived early, got stuck in and had it up and running in a few hours. Despite the heat and awkward nature of the repair, he kept on until the job was done. A really good bloke to deal with, straight as a die and well priced work. I'd definately recommend him without hesistation”
