TO START ENGINE
NOTE:
Due to protective coatings on the
engine, a small amount
of smoke may be
present during the initial use of the
product and should be considered
normal.
1. To start a cold engine,
push primer
three (3) times before trying to start.
Use a firm push. This step is not
usually necessary
when starting an
engine which has already
run for a few
minutes.
2.
Hold operator
presence
control bar
down to the handle
and pull starter
handle
quickly.
Do not allow starter
rope to snap
back.
TO STOP ENGINE
• To stop engine, release operator
presence control bar.
NOTE: In cooler weather it may be
necessary to repeat priming steps. In
warmer weather over priming may cause
flooding and engine will not start. If you do
flood engine, wait a few minutes before
attempting to start and do not repeat
priming steps.
MOWINGTIPS
• Under certain conditions,
such as very
tall grass,
it may be necessary
to raise
the height of cut to reduce
pushing
effort and to keep from overloading
the
engine
and leaving
clumps
of grass
clippings.
It may also be necessary
to
reduce
ground
speed
and/or
run the
lawn mower
over the area a second
time.
• For extremely
heavy cutting, reduce
the
width of cut by overlapping
previously
cut path and mow slowly.
• For better grass bagging
and most
cutting
conditions,
the engine
speed
should
be set in the fast position.
• Pores in cloth grass catchers
can
become
filled with dirt and dust with use
and catchers
will collect
less grass.
To
prevent
this, regularly
hose catcher
off
with water
and let dry before
using.
• Keep top of engine
around
starter
clear
and clean
of grass clippings
and chaff.
This will help engine
air flow and
extend
engine
life.
MULCHING MOW1NG TIPS
IMPORTANT: Forbest performance,keep
mower housingfree of built-upgrass and
trash.See "CLEANING" in the Maintenance
sectionof this manual.
• The special mulching blade will recut the
grass clippings many times and reduce
them in size so that as they fall onto the
lawn they will disperse into the grass and
not be noticed.
Also, the mulched grass
will biodegrade
quickly to provide nutrients
for the lawn. Always mulch with your
highest engine (blade) speed as this will
provide the best recutting action of the
blades.
• Avoid cutting your lawn when it is wet. Wet
grass tends to form clumps and interferes
with the mulching action. The best time to
mow your lawn is the early aftemoon.
At
this time the grass has dried and the newly
cut area will not be exposed to the direct
sun.
• For best results, adjust the lawn mower
cutting height so that the lawn mower cuts
off only the top one-third of the grass
blades.
If the lawn is overgrown it will be
necessary to raise the height of cut to
reduce pushing effort and to keep from
overloading
the engine and leaving
clumps of mulched grass. For extremely
heavy mulching,
reduce your width of cut
by overlapping
previously
cut path and
mow slowly.
• Certain types of grass and grass conditions
may require that an area be mulched a
second time to completely
hide the
clippings.
When doing a second cut, mow
across or perpendicular
to the first cut path.
• Change your cutting pattem from week to
week.
Mow north to south one week then
change to east to west the next week. This
will help prevent matting and graining of
the lawn.
