pected carburetor problems, take your
lawn mower to an authorized service
center for repair or adjustment.

Your engine speed has been factory set.
Do not attempt to increase engine speed
or it may result in personal injury. If you
believe that the engine is running too fast
or too slow, take your lawn mower to an
authorized service center for repair and
adjustment°
Immediately prepare your lawn mower for
storage at the end of the season or if the unit
will not be used for 30 days or more.

IMPORTANT: It is important to prevent bum
deposits from forming in essential juel system
parts such as carburetor, fuel filter, fuel hose,
or tank during storabe. Also, experience
indicates that alcolol blinded fuels (called
gasohol or using ethanol or methanol) can
attract moisture which leads to separation and
formation of acids during storage. Acidic gas
can damage the fuel system of an engine
while in storage.
• Drain the fuel tank.
o Start the engine and let it run until the fuel
lines and carburetor are empty.
o Never use engine or carburetor cleaner
products in the fuel tank or permanent
damage may occur_
• Use fresh fuel next season.
NOTE; Fuel stabilizer is an acceptable
alternative in minimizing the formation of fuel
gum deposits during storage. Add stabilizer to
gasoline in fuel tank or storage container.
Always follow the mix ratio found on stabilizer
container. Run engine at least 10 minutes
after adding stabilizer to allow the stabilizer to
reach the carburetor. Do not drain the gas
tank and carburetor if using fuel stabilizer.
ENGINE OIL
Drain oil (withengine warm) and replace with
clean engine oil. (See "ENGINE" in the
Customer Responsibilities section of this
manual).
