Check The Tires
Check the air pressure in the tires. Tires with too
much air pressure will cause the unit to ride
rough. Also, the wrong air pressure will keep the
mower housing from cutting level. The correct
air pressure is: Front Tires 1.5 BAR (22 PSI),
Rear Tires 1 BAR (14 PSI). The tires were over
inflated for shipment.
Check The Level Of The Mower
Housing
Make sure the level of cut is still correct. After
you mow a short distance, look at the area that
was cut. If the mower housing does not cut level,
see the instructions on "How To Level The
Mower Housing" in the Maintenance section of
this instruction book.
How To Prepare The Engine
NOTE: The engine was shipped from the fac-
tory filled with oil. Check the level of the oil.
Add oil as needed.
See the engine manufacturer's instructions for
the type of gasoline and oil to use. Before you
use the unit, read the information on safety,
operation, maintenance, and storage.
WARNING: Follow the engine manu-
facturer's instructions for the type of
gasoline and oil to use. Always use a
safety gasoline container. Do not smoke
when adding gasoline to the engine. When
inside an enclosure, do not fill with gasoline
Before you add gasoline, stop the engine.
Let the engine cool for several minutes.
Important! Before You Start Mowing
r Check the engine oil.
r Fill the fuel tank with gasoline.
r Check the level of the mower hous-
ing.
Check the air pressure of the tires.
r
r Attach the battery cables.
