Tire Pressure Check
For correct traction and best mowing performance, make sure
that the tire inflation pressure is 12-14 psi (0,82-0,96 bar).
Refer to Tire Pressure Check in the Maintenance Schedule.
Also, see Tire Inflation Pressure in the Specifications section.
Note: The Tire Inflation Pressure can be slightly different from
the "Maximum Inflation" shown on the side of the tires.
Check the Spark Plugs
WARNING
Unintentional sparking can result in fire or electric shock.
Unintentional start-up can result in entanglement, traumatic
amputation, or laceration.
When testing for spark:
• Use approved spark plug tester.
• Do not check for spark with spark plug removed.
NOTICE
Spark plugs have different heat ranges. It is important that
the correct spark plug is used, otherwise, engine damage
can occur. Replace the spark plug with the same type or
equivalent one.

Clean Spark Plug
Clean the spark plug with a wire brush and sturdy knife. Do
NOT use abrasives.
Check Spark Plug Gap
Use a spark plug feeler gauge (A, Figure 14) to check the
gap between the two electrodes. When the gap is correct, the
gauge will drag slightly as you pull it through the gap.
To adjust the spark plug gap, use a spark plug gauge and
gently bend the curved electrode. Make sure that you do not
touch the center electrode or the porcelain.
Install Spark Plug
Tighten the spark plug with your fingers, and then, tighten it
with a wrench as shown in Figure 15.
• 180 in-lbs (20 Nm), OR
• 1/2 turn when you install the original spark plug. 1/4 turn
when you install a new spark plug.
