After mowing, I use a leaf blower to get the grass and debris off. Pretty soon I'll have to do a good cleaning under the deck. Powerwashing is probably too powerful, so soap and scrub I guess?

I have been using a leaf blower like you then a good spray down...after the leaf work I will be putting a coat of wax on betsy for the winter.

I blow mine off with the air compressor. Then I wash mine down with a cleaner and degreaser. Duckman has the right idea, can't wait to wax mine up for her winter nap!

Hose off and a quick sudsy car wash after every other mow. I also drive up on a ramp and scrape the underside of the deck. Amazing how much crud builds up so quickly!

And I gave it good coat of polish prior to the first time I mowed with it back in June.

Love this mower!

Suggestion: after you get the underside of your deck thoroughly cleaned and dried, you might consider applying a liberal coat of Fluid Film. That will keep grass clippings from collecting on the underside next season.

I blow them with a gas powered blower and I wash them with a pressure washer.
