•

OPERATION

Slopes are a major factor related to loss-of-control and tipover
accidents, which can result in severe injury or death. All slopes
require extra caution, if you cannot back up the slope or ifyou feel
uneasy on it, do not mow it.
•

Mow up and down elopes, not across.
Remove obstacles such as rocks, tree limbs, etc.
•
Watch for holes, ruts, or bumps. Uneven terrain could
overturn the machine. Tall grass can hide obstacles.
•
Use slow speed. Choose a low gear so that you will not have
to stop or shift while on the slope,
•
Follow the manufacturer's
recom_nandations for wheel
weights or counterweights to improve stability.
•
Use extra care with grass catchers or other attachments.
These can change the stability of the machine.
Keep all movement on the slopes slowand gradual Do not
make sudden changes in speed or direction.
•
Avoid starting or stopping on a slope. If tires lose traction,
disengage the blades and proceed slowly straightdown the
slope.
DO NOT:

BEFORE STARTING
CHECK

ENGINE

THE ENGINE

OIL LEVEL (See Fig. 16)

•

The engine in your tractor has been shipped, fromthe
factory, already filled with summer weight oil.

•

Check engine oil With tractor on level ground.

•

Unthread and remove oil fill cap/dipstick; wipe oil off.
Reinsert the dipstick into the tube and rest oil fill cap on
the tube. Do not thread the cap onto the tube. Remove
and read oil level. If necessary, add oil until =FULL"
mark on dipstick is reached. Do not overfill.

•

For cold weather operation you should change oil for
easier starting (See =OIL VISCOSITY CHART" in the
Customer Responsibilities section of this manual).

•

To change engine oil, see the Customer Responsibilities section in this manual.

ADD GASOLINE
•

Fill fuel tank. Use fresh, clean, regular unleaded
gasoline with a minimum of 87 octane. (Use of leaded
gasoline will increase carbon and lead oxide deposits
and reduce valve life). Do not mix oil with gasoline.
Purchase fuel in quantities that can be used within 30
days to assure fuel freshness.
IMPORTANT: WHEN OPERATING IN TEMPERATURES
BELOW 32°F(0°C), USE FRESH, CLEAN WINTER GRADE
GASOLINE TO HELP INSURE GOOD COLD WEATHER
STARTING.

COLD WEATHER STARTING (50 ° F and below)
•
When engine starts, slowly push choke control in until
the engine begins to run smoothly. Continue to push
the choke control in small steps allowing the engine to
accept small changes in speed and load, until the
choke control is fully in. If the engine starts to run
roughly, pull the choke control out slightly for a few
seconds and then continue to push the control in
slowly. This may require an engine warm-up period
from several seconds to several minutes, dependir_g
on the temperature.
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION WARM UP
•
Before driving the unit in cold weather, the transmission should be warmed up as follows:
• Be sure the tractor is on level ground.
• Place the motion control lever in neutral.
Release the parking brake and let the clutch/brake
slowly return to operating position.
• Allow one minute for transmission to warm up. This
can be done during the engine warm up period.
•
The attachments can be used during the engine warmup period after the transmission has been warmed up
and may req uira the choke control be pulled out slightly.
NOTE: If at a high altitude (above 3000 feet) or in cold
temperatures (below 32 F) the carburetor fuel mixture may
need to be adjusted for best engine performance. See "TO
ADJUST CARBURETOR" in the Service and Adjustments
section of this manual.

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.

•

Mower should be properly leveled for best mowing
performance. See "TO LEVEL MOWER HOUSING in
the Service and Adjustments section of this manual.
The left hand side of mower should be used for.trimming.
Drive so that clippings are discharged onto the area
that has been cut. Have the cut area to the right of the
tractor. This will result in a more even distribution of
clippings and more uniform cutting.
When mowing large areas, start by turning to the right
so that clippings will discharge away from shrubs,
fences, driveways, etc. After one or two rounds, mow
in the opposite direction making left hand turns until
finished (See Fig. 12).
15

•

If grass is extremely tall, it should be mowed twice to
reduce load and possible fire hazard from dried clippings. Make first cut relatively high; the second to the
desired height.
Do not mow grass when it is wet. Wet grass will plug
mower and leave undesirable clumps. Allow grass to
dry before mowing.
Always operate engine at full throttle when mowing to
assure better mowing performance and proper discharge of material. Regulate ground speed by selecting a low enough gear to give the mower cutting
performance as well as the quality of cut desired.
When operating attachments, select a ground speed
that will suit the terrain and give best performance of
the attachment being used.
f

FIG. 12

MULCHING MOWING TIPS
IMPORTANT:
FOR BEST PERFORMANCE,
KEEP
MOWER HOUSING FREE OF BUILT-UP GRASS AND
TRASH. CLEAN AFTER EACH USE.
The special mulching blade will recut 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 _'nowercutting height so that
the mower cuts off only the top one-third of the grass
blades (See Fig. 13). For extremely heavy mulching,
reduce your width of cut on each pass 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 first cut path.
Change your cutting pattern frem week to week. Mow
northto south one week then change to east towest the
next week. This will help prevent matting and graining
of the lawn.

STORAGE
ENGINE

Immediately prepare your tractor for storage at the end of
the season or if the tractor will not be used for 30 days or
_ore.

FUEL SYSTEM
IMPORTANT: IT IS IMPORTANT TO PREVENT GUM
DEPOSITS FROM FORMING IN ESSENTIAL FUEL
SYSTEM PARTS SUCH AS CARBURETOR, 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.

CAUTION: Never store the tractor with
gasoline in the tank inside a building
where fumes may reach an open flame
or spark. Allow the engine to cool
before storing in any enclosure.

TRACTOR
Remove mower from tractor for winter storage. When
mower is to be stored for a pedod of time, clean it thoroughly, remove all dirt, grease, leaves, etc. Store in a
clean, dry area.
•

Clean entire tractor (See"CLEANING" in the Customer
Responsibilities section of this manual).

•

Inspect and replace belts, if necessary (See belt replacement instructions in the Service and Adjustments
section of this manual).

•

Lubricate as shown in the Customer Responsibilities
section of this manual.

•

Be sure that all nuts, bolts end screws 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.

Fully charge the battery for storage.

•

After a pedod of time in storage, battery may require
recharging.

Drain the fuel tank.

•

Start 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 fuelnext 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.

ENGINE OIL
Drain oil (with engine warm) and replace with clean engine
oil. (See "ENGINE" in the Customer Responsibilities
section of this manual).

BATTERY
•

•

CYLINDER(S)
•

To help prevent corrosion and power leakage during
long periods of storage, battery cables should be
disconnected and battery cleaned thoroughly (see "TO
CLEAN BATTERY AND TERMINALS" in the Customer Responsibilities section of this manual).
•

•

Remove spark plug(s).
Pour one ounce of oil through spark plug hole(s) into
cylinder(s).
Tum ignitionkey to"START" position for a few seconds
to distribute oil

After cleaning, leave cables disconnected and place
cables where they cannot come in contact with battery
terminals.-

•

Replace with new spark plug(s).

If battery is removed from tractor for storage, do not
store battery directly on concrete or damp surfaces.

•

Do not store gasoline from one season to another.

•

Replace your gasoline can if your can starts to rust.
Rust and/or dirt in your gasoline will cause problems.

•

If possible, store your tractor indoors and cover it to
give protection from dust and dirt.

OTHER

•

Cover your tractor with a suitable protective cover that
does not retain moisture. Do not use plastic. Plastic
cannot breathe which allows condensation to form and
will cause your tractor to rust.
IMPORTANT: NEVER COVER TRACTOR WHILE ENGINE
AND EXHAUST AREAS ARE STILL WARM.
