Maintenance And Storage
1. DO NOT store the mower or fuel container inside where
fumes may reach an open flame, spark or pilot light
such as in a water heater, furnace, clothes dryer or other
gas appliance. Allow the engine to cool before storing
the machine in an enclosure. Store fuel containers out
of reach of children in a well ventilated, unoccupied
building.
2. Keep the mower and engine free of grass, leaves
or excess grease to reduce fire hazard and engine
overheating.
3. When draining the fuel tank, drain fuel into an approved
container outdoors and away from open flame.
4. Keep all bolts, especially blade bolts, nuts and screws
properly tight. Check that all cotter pins are in proper
position.
5. Always provide adequate ventilation when running
engine. Engine exhaust gases contain carbon monoxide,
a deadly poison.
6. Service the engine and make adjustments only when
engine is stopped. Remove the spark plug wire from the
spark plug and secure the wire away from the spark plug
to prevent accidental starting.
7. DO NOT change engine governor speed settings or
overspeed the engine.
8. Check the grass bag assembly frequently for wear or
deterioration to avoid thrown objects and exposure to
moving parts. Replace with a new bag if loose seams or
tears are evident. Replace slider or bag adapter if broken
or cracked.
9. Mower blades are sharp and can cut. Wrap the blades
or wear heavy leather gloves and use CAUTION when
handling them.
10. DO NOT test for spark by grounding the spark plug next
to the spark plug hole; the spark plug could ignite gas
exiting the engine.
11. Have the machine serviced by an authorized dealer at
least once a year and have the dealer install any new
safety devices.
