ADD GASOLINE

• Fill: _,;i .. f, _,i, ,,i, .r,, reguk_

unleaded gasoline with a minimum of 87

octane. Do not mix oil with gasoline.

Purchase fuel in quantities that can be

used within 30 days to assure fuel

freshness.

_,WARNING: Experience indicates that

alcohol blended fuels (called gasohol or

using ethanol or methanol) can attract

moisture which leads to separation and

formation of acids during storage. Acidic gas

can damage the fuel system of an engine

while in storage. To avoid engine problems,

the fuel system should be emptied before

storage of 30 days or longer. Drain the gas

tank, start the engine and let it run until the

fuel lines and carburetor are empty. Use

fresh fuel next season. See Storage

Instructions for additional information. Never

use engine or carburetor cleaner products in

the fuel tank or permanent damage may

occur.

f.A,,CAUTION: Fill to bottom of gas tank

iller neck. Do not overfill. Wipe off any

spilled oi! or fuel. Do not store, spill or

use gasoline near an open flame.

Engine oil cap Gasoline filler cap

BEFORE STARTING ENGINE

OIL

Your lawn mower is shipped without oil in the

engine.

• Be sure mower is level and area around oil

fill is clean.

• Remove engine oil cap and fill to the full

line on the dipstick.

NOTE: Allow oil to settle down into engine

for accurate dipstick reading.

• Engine holds 20 ozs. of oil. Fortype and

grade of oil to use, see "ENGINE" in

Maintenance section of this manual.

• Pour oil slowly. Do not over fill.

• Check oil level before each use. Add oil if

needed. Fill to full line on dipstick.

• To read proper level, tighten engine oil cap

each time.

• Reinstall engine oil cap and tighten.

• Change the oil after every 25 hours of

operation or each season. You may need

to change the oil more often under dusty,

dirty conditions.

TO START ENGINE

• To start a cold engine, push primer three

(3) times before tryingto start. Use a firm

push. This step is not usually necessary

when starting an engine which has

already run for a few minutes.

• Hold operator presence control bar down

to the handle and pull starter handle

quickly. Do not allow starter rope to snap

back.

• To stop engine, release operator presence

control bar.

NOTE: In cooler weather it may be

necessary to repeat priming steps. In

warmer weather over priming may cause

flooding and engine will not start. If you

do flood engine, wait a few minutes

before attempting to start and do not

repeat priming steps.

MOWING TIPS

• Under certain conditions, such as very

tall grass, it may be necessary to raise

the height of cut to reduce pushing effort

and to keep from overloading the engine

and leaving clumps of grass clippings. It

may also be necessary to reduce

ground speed and/or run the lawn

mower over the area a second time.

• For extremely heavy cutting, reduce the

width of cut by overlapping previously

cut path and mow slowly.

• For better grass bagging and most

cutting conditions, the engine speed

should be set in the fast position.

•When using a rear discharge lawn

mower in moist, heavy grass, clumps of

cut grass may not enter the grass

catcher. Reduce ground speed (push-

ing speed) and/or run the lawn mower

over the area a second time.

• If a trail of clippings is left on the right

side of a rear discharge mower, mow in

a clockwise direction with a small

overlap to collect the clippings on the

next pass.

• Pores in cloth grass catchers can

become filled with dirt and dust with use

and catchers will collect less grass. To

prevent this, regularly hose catcher off

with water and let dry before using.

• Keep top of engine around starter clear

and clean of grass clippings and chaff.

This will help engine air flow and extend

engine life,

MULCHING MOWING TIPS

IMPORTANT: For best performance, keep

mower housing free of built-up grass and

trash. See "Cleaning" in Maintenance section

of this manual.

• The special mulching blade will recur the

grass clippings many times and reduce

them in size so that as they fall onto the

lawn they will disperse into the grass and

not be noticed. Also, the mulched grass will

biodegrade quickly to provide nutrients for

the lawn. Always mulch with your highest

engine (blade) speed as this will provide the

best recutting action of the blades.

• Avoid cutting your lawn when it is wet. Wet

grass tends to form clumps and interferes

with the mulching action. The best time to

mow your lawn is the early afternoon. At

this time the grass has dried and the newly

cut area will not be exposed to the direct

sun.

•For best results,adjust the lawn mower

cuttingheight so that the lawn mower cuts

offonly the top one-third of the grass blades.

If the lawn is overgrown itwill be necessary

to raise the height ofcut to reduce pushing

effort and to keep from overloading the

engine and leaving clumps of mulched

grass. For extremely heavy mulching,

reduce your width of cut by overlapping

previouslycut path and mow slowly.

•Certain types of grass and grass conditions

may require that an area be mulched a

second time to completely hide the

clippings. When doing a second cut, mow

across or perpendicular to the firstcut path.

•Change your cutting pattem from week to

week. Mow northto south one week then

change to east to west the next week. This

will help prevent matting and grainingof the

lawn.

replace only with a manufacturer approved

replacement catcher. Give the lawn

mower model number when ordering.

DRIVE WHEELS

Check front drive wheels each time before

you mow to be sure they move freely.

The wheels not turning freely means

trash, grass cuttings, etc. are in the drive

wheel area and must be cleaned to free

drive wheels.

If necessary to clean the drive wheels,

check both front wheels.

•Remove hubcaps, hairpin cotters and

washers.

• Remove wheels from wheel adjusters.

• Remove any trash or grass cuttings

from inside the dust cover, pinion and/

or drive wheel gear teeth.

• Put wheels back in place.

• If after cleaning, the drive wheels do

not turn freely, contact your nearest

authorized service center.

GEAR CASE

• To keep your drive system working

properly, the gear case and area

around the drive should be kept clean

and free of trash build-up. Clean under

the drive cover twice a season.

• The gear case is filled with lubricant to

the proper level at the factory. The only

time the lubricant needs attention is if

service has been performed on the

gear case.

• If lubricant is required, use only Texaco

accumulating. A clogged engine runs

hotter and shortens engine life.

• Keep finished surfaces and wheels

free of all gasoline, oil,etc.

• We do not recommend using a garden

hose to clean lawn mower unless the

electrical system, muffler, air filter and

carburetor are covered to keep water

out. Water in engine can result in

shortened engine life.

CLEAN UNDER DRIVE COVER

Clean under drive cover at least twice a

season. Scrape underside of cover with

putty knife or similar tool to remove any

build-up of trash or grass on underside

of drive cover.

ACAUTION: Before performing any

service and adjustments:

•Release control bar and stop engine.

• Make sure the blade and all moving

parts have completely stopped.

• Disconnect spark plug wire from spark

plug and place where it cannot come

in cnr_tact with plug.

Do not attempt to increase engine speed

or it may result in personal injury. If you

believe that the engine is running too fast

or too slow, take your lawn mower to an

authorized service center for repair and

adjustment.

CARBURETOR

Your carburetor has a non-adjustable

fixed mair_ jet fo_ mixture control. If your

engine does not operate properly due to

suspected carburetor problems, take your

lawn mower to an authorized service

center for repair and/or adjustment.

i_PORTANT: never tamper with the

• ngine governor, which is factory set for

l_,oper engine speed. Overspeeding the

engine above the factory high speed

setting can be dangerous, if you think the

_ng_ne-governed high speed needs

adjusting, contact your nearest authorzed

service center, which has proper

aquinment and experience to make any

"_ry adjustments.

Immediately prepare your lawn mower for

storage at the end of the season or if the unit

will not be used for 30 days or more.

LAWN MOWER

When lawn mower is to be stored for a period

of time, clean it thoroughly, remove all dirt,

grease, leaves, etc. Store in a clean, dry area.

• Clean entire lawn nlower (See "CLEAN-

ING" in the Maintenance section of this

manual).

• Lubricate as shown in the Maintenance

section of this manual

• Be sure that all nuts, belts, screws, and pins

are securely fastened. Inspect moving

parts for damage, breakage and wear.

Replace if necessary.

• Touch up all rusted or chipped paint

surfaces; sand lightly before painting.

HANDLE

You can fold your lawn mower handle for

storage.

• Squeeze the bottom ends of the lower

handle toward each other until the lower

handle clears the handle bracket, then

move handle forward.

• Loosen upper handle mounting belts

enough to allow upper handle to be folded

back.

IMPORTANT: When folding the handle for

FUELSYSTEM

IMPORTANT: It is important to prevent gum

deposits from forming in essential fuel system

parts such as carburetor, f fuel filter, fuel hose

or tank during storage. Also, experience

indicates that alcohol blended fuels ( called

gasohol or using ethanol or methanol) can

attract moisture which leads to separation and

formation of acids during storage. Acidic gas

can damage the fuel system of an engine

while in storage.

• Drain the fuel tank

• £'art the engine and let it run until the fuel

lines and carburetor are empty.

• Never use engine or carburetor cleaner

products in the fuel tank or permanent

damage may occur.

• Use fresh fuel next season.

NOTE: Fuel stabilizer is an acceptable

alternative in minimizing the formation of fuel

gum deposits during storage. Add stabilizer

to gasoline in fuel tank or storage container.

Always follow the mix ratio found on stabilizer

container. Run engine at least 10 minutes

after adding stabilizer to allow the stabilizer to

reach the carburetor. Do not drain the gas

tank and carburetor if using fuel stabilizer.

Hairpin

cotter

ENGINE OIL

Drain oil (with engine warm) and replace with

clean engine oil. (See "ENGINE" in the

Maintenance section of this manual).

CYLINDER

•Remove spark plug.

• Pour one ounce (29 ml) of oil through spark

plug hole into cylinder.

• Pull starter handle slowly a few times to

distribute oil.

•Replace with new spark plug.
