Assembly

Handle

1. Loosen knobs on mounting brackets (Fig. 2).
2. Position mounting brackets in a vertical position
so that holes face up.
3. Slide handle ends into holes in mounting
brackets until handle ends are completely seated
in brackets (Fig. 2). Make sure throttle cable,
electric start cable (electric start model) and
traction cable rest on top of left mounting
bracket (Fig. 3).
4. Rotate handle and brackets rearward until
brackets fit securely into housing pockets
(Fig. 3).
5. Tighten knobs until edges of slots on top of
mounting brackets touch.
6. Use cable tie to secure cable(s) to lower side of
left hand tube (Fig. 4). Cable tie should be
positioned 25 mm (1") from bend in handle. See
Figure 4 for correct cable placement.
Note: Make sure cable(s) do not interfere
with the raising or lowering of
discharge door.
7. Cut excess length from end of cable tie on lower
left handle.
8. Secure control lever to control bar with a
capscrew and locknut (Fig. 5).

Grass Bag

1. Raise discharge door, slide bag ramp attached to
bag into discharge opening, and hook bag frame
onto rounded portion of mounting brackets
(Fig. 7).

Before Starting

Oil

Initially crankcase must be filled with 20 ounces (0.6
liters) of SAE 30 oil. 10W–30 oil may be substituted
if SAE 30 is not available. Use any high quality
detergent oil having the American Petroleum Institute
(API) "service classification" — SF, SG, SH or SJ.
Before each use, ensure oil level is between FULL
and ADD marks on dipstick (Fig. 9). Add oil if level
is low.
1. Position mower on level surface and clean
around oil dipstick (Fig. 9).
2. Remove dipstick by rotating cap
counterclockwise 1/4 turn.
3. Wipe dipstick and insert it into filler neck.
Rotate cap clockwise 1/4 turn. Then remove
dipstick and check level of oil on side of dipstick
with FULL and ADD marks (Fig. 9). If level is
low, add only enough oil to raise level to FULL
mark on dipstick. DO NOT FILL ABOVE
FULL MARK BECAUSE ENGINE COULD
BE DAMAGED WHEN STARTED. POUR
OIL SLOWLY.
4. Insert dipstick into filler neck and rotate cap
clockwise 1/4 turn to lock.
Note: Check oil level each time mower is
used or after every 5 operating hours.
Initially, change oil after the first 5
