CONTROLS

FUEL VALVE
The fuel valve [1] opens and closes the
connection between the fuel tank and the
carburetor.
CUTTING-MEANS CONTROL
SYSTEM
The cutting-means control
lever [1] must be pulled back
against the handlebar to start
and run the engine. The
cutting means start to rotate
when the lever is pulled back
against the handlebar and the
recoil starter grip is pulled.
Continue to hold the
cutting-means lever fully
against the handlebar. This
will keep the engine and
cutting means rotating
smoothly and prevent premature wear to the cutting-means control
system.
Release the cutting-means control lever to stop the engine and stop
cutting means rotation whenever you need to leave the mower.
SELECT-DRIVE CONTROL
With the engine running and
the cutting means rotating,
slowly push the Select Drive
control [1] to propel the
mower forward.
Normal operation is with your
hand comfortably around the
handle bar and Select Drive
control. Push the Select Drive control with your thumb into the
indentation for boost operation (up a hill, or through thick grass).
You can reduce the ground speed by partially releasing the Select
Drive control.
Ground speed varies with terrain, grass height, slope, and grass
catcher weight. Moving the Select Drive knob (page 9) or varying how
far you push the Select Drive control forward allows you to maintain
the desired ground speed under constantly changing mowing
conditions.
Release the Select Drive control to disengage (stop) the rear wheels.
Disengage the drive when mowing around trees and other obstacles.
Push the mower around obstacles for better directional control.
Adjusting The Select Drive Control Knob
The Select Drive control
knob allows you to adjust the
maximum ground speed
when the Select Drive lever
is fully engaged.
Adjustment is from MIN to
MAX. With the Select Drive
lever fully engaged:
MIN will propel the
lawnmower at its slowest
speed.
MAX will propel the lawnmower at its fastest speed.

conditions.

CLIP DIRECTOR
KNOB
The Clip Director knob [1]
controls catching,
mulching, and rear

PRE-OPERATION CHECKS

CHECK YOUR LAWN
For your safety and for the safety of others, always inspect the area
before mowing.
Objects
Anything that can be picked up by the cutting means and thrown is a
potential hazard to you and others. Look for things like stones, sticks,
bones, and wire. Remove them from the mowing area.
People and Pets
People and animals near the mowing area can move into your path or
into a position where they could be struck by thrown objects. Clear the
area of people, especially children, and pets. Their safety is your
responsibility.
Lawn
Check the length and condition of the grass, so that you will know
what cutting height and mowing speed to use.
Avoid mowing wet grass. Not only will wet grass clog your mower
deck and collect in clumps on the lawn, it also gives poor traction,
increasing your risk of losing your footing.
