GAS
o Fill fuel tank. Use fresh, clean, regular
unleaded gasoline with a minimum of 87
octane.
Do not mix oil with gasoline.
Purchase fuel in quantities that can be
used within 30 days to assure fuel
freshness.
WARNING;
Experience indicates that
alcohol blended 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.
To avoid engine
problems, the fuel system should be
emptied before storage of 30 days or
longer. Drain the fuel tank, start the
engine and let it run until fuel lines and
carburetor are empty. Use fresh fuel next
season.
See Storage Instructions for
additional information.
Never use engine
or carburetor cleaner products in fuel tank
or permanent damage may occur.
TO START ENGINE
° To start a cold engine, push primer f'_e (5)
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.
- Hold operator presence control bar down to
the handle and pull starter handle quickJy.
Do not allow starter rope to snap back.
• 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.
MOWING TIPS
o 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.
° For extremely heavy cutting, reduce the
width of cut and raise the rear of the lawn
mower housing one (1) wheel adjuster
setting higher than the front for better
discharge of grass.
• When using a rear discharge lawn mower in
moist, heavy grass, clumps of cut grass
may not enter the grass catcher. Reduce
ground speed (pushing speed) and!or run
the lawn mower over the area a second
time.
• tf a trail of grass clippings is left on the right
side of a rear discharge lawn mower, mow
in a clockwise direction with a small overlap
to collect the clippings on the next pass.
° Keep top of engine around starter clear and
clean of grass clippings and chaff. This wilt
help engine air flow and extend engine life.
° Pores in cloth grass catchers can become
filled with dirt and dust with use and
catchers wil! collect less grass. To prevent
this, regularly hose catchers off with water
and let dry before using.
