• The operator rises off the seat with the blade lever
engaged.

Test 4 — Mower Blade Stopping Time Check
• The mower blade and mower drive belt should come to a
complete stop within five seconds after the blade lever is
disengaged.
• If the drive belt does not stop within five seconds, see an
authorized dealer.
Test 5 — Reverse Mowing Option (RMO) Check
• The operator should not be able to shift into reverse when
the mower blade is engaged and the RMO has not been
activated.
WARNING
Mowing in reverse can be hazardous to bystanders. Tragic
accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the
presence of children. Never activate the Reverse Mowing
Option (RMO) if children are present. Children are often
attracted to the machine and the mowing activity.
Check and Add Engine Oil

Use of Briggs & Stratton
best performance. Other high-quality detergent oils are
acceptable if classified for service SF, SG, SH, SJ or higher.
Do not use special additives.
Outdoor temperatures determine the proper oil viscosity for
the engine. Use the chart to select the best viscosity for the
outdoor temperature range expected.
A SAE 30 - Below 40 °F (4 °C) the use of SAE 30 will result in hard
starting.
B 10W-30 - Above 80 °F (27 °C) the use of 10W-30 may cause
increased oil consumption. Check oil level more frequently.
C 5W-30

Check oil level more frequently.
1. Put the unit on a level surface.
2. Stop the engine.
3. Make sure that the oil fill area is clean.
4. Remove the dipstick (A, Figure 4). Remove the
remaining oil from the dipstick.
5. Install and tighten the dipstick.
6. Remove the dipstick again, and check the oil level. Make
sure that the oil level is at the top of the FULL mark (B)
on the dipstick.

7. If the oil level is FULL, install and tighten the dipstick.
8. If the oil level is LOW, add oil into the engine oil fill tube
(C). Do not overfill.
Note: Do not add oil at the quick oil drain (if equipped).
9. Wait one minute, and check the oil level again.
10. Replace and tighten the dipstick.
Oil Pressure
If the oil pressure is too low, a pressure switch (if equipped)
will either stop the engine or activate a warning device on the
equipment. If this occurs, stop the engine and check the oil
level with the dipstick.
If the oil level is below the ADD mark, add oil until it reaches
the FULL mark. Start the engine and check for the correct oil
pressure before continuing to operate.
