WARNING: The operation of any
lawn mower can result in foreign
objects being thrown into the
eyes, which can damage your
eyes severely. Always wear safety
glasses while operating the
mower, or while performing any
adjustments or repairs on it.
The following information will be helpful when
operating your mower.
WARNING! Plan your mowing
pattern to avoid discharge of
materials toward roads,
sidewalks, bystanders and the
like. Also, avoid discharging
material against a wall or
obstruction which may cause
discharged material to ricochet
back toward the operator.
Do not mow at fast ground speeds,
especially if mulching or a grass collector
is installed.
Do not cut the grass too short. Short
grass is prone to weed growth and
yellows quickly in dry weather.
For best results, it is recommended
that the first two laps be cut with the
discharge thrown towards the center.
After the first two laps, reverse the
direction to throw the discharge to the
outside for the balance of cutting. This
will give a better appearance to the
lawn.
Do NOT attempt to mow heavy brush
and weeds or extremely tall grass. Your
mower is designed to mow lawns, NOT
clear brush.
Keep the blades sharp and replace the
blades when worn.
WARNING! After striking a
foreign object, stop the engine,
disconnect the spark plug wire
and ground against the engine.
Thoroughly inspect the mower
for any damage. Repair the
damage before starting and
operating the mower.
Using as Mulcher
For mulching grass, remove the side discharge
chute or the grass catcher and allow the rear
discharge door to close the rear opening of
mower. Refer to the Assembly & Set-Up section.
For effective mulching, do not cut wet grass. If
the grass has been allowed to grow in excess
of four inches, mulching is not recommended.
Use the grass catcher to bag clippings instead.
Using Grass Catcher
Use the grass catcher to collect clippings while
you are operating the mower.
IMPORTANT:
To effectively bag the grass, you
will need to install the high lift blades that were
packed separately in the box. See Blade Care
on page 13 of the Service section and follow
the procedure for removing and reinstalling
the blades.
1.
Attach grass catcher following
instructions in the Assembly & Setup
section on page 6. Grass clippings will
automatically collect in bag as you run
mower. Operate mower until grass bag
is full.
2.
Stop engine completely by releasing the
blade control. Make sure that the unit
has come to a complete stop.
3.
Lift discharge door and pull grass bag up
and away from the mower to remove the
bag. Dispose of the grass clippings and
reinstall the bag when complete.
WARNING: If you strike a foreign
object, stop the engine. Remove
wire from the spark plug,
thoroughly inspect mower for
any damage, and repair damage
before restarting and operating.
Extensive vibration of mower
during operation is an indication
of damage. The unit should be
promptly inspected and
repaired.

Operating on Slopes

Refer to the Slope Gauge on page 6 to help
determine slopes where you may operate the
mower safely.
WARNING! Do not mow on
inclines with a slope in excess of
15 degrees (a rise of
approximately 2-1/2 feet every 10
feet). The mower could overturn
and cause serious injury.
Mow across the face of slopes; never up
and down.
Exercise extreme caution when
changing direction on slopes.
Watch for holes, ruts, rocks, hidden
objects, or bumps which can cause
you to slip or trip. Tall grass can hide
obstacles.
Always be sure of your footing. A slip
and fall can cause serious personal
injury. If you feel you are losing your
balance, release the blade control
handle immediately and the blade will
stop rotating within three seconds.
Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches
or embankments, you could lose your
footing or balance.
Do not mow slopes greater than 15
degrees as shown on the slope gauge.
Do not mow on wet grass. Unstable
footing could cause slipping.
