HOW TO USE YOUR LAWN MOWER

ENGINE SPEED

The engine speed was set at the factory for optimum performance, Speed is not adjustable,

ENGINE ZONE CONTROL

_,CAUTION: Federal regulations require

an engine control to be installed on this lawn mower in order to minimize the

risk of blade contact injury, Do not under any circumstances attempt to defeat the function of the operator control, The blade turns when the engine is running.

•Your lawn mower is equipped with an operator presence control bar which

requires the operator to be positioned behind the lawn mower handle to start

and operate the lawn mower,

DRIVE CONTROL

•Self-propelling is controlled by hold- ing the operator presence control bar down to the handle and pulling the drive

control bar up to the handle. The closer to the handle the bar is pulled, the faster the unit wil! travel.

,Forward motion will stop when either the operator presence control bar or drive control bar are released_ To stop forward motion without stopping engine, release the drive control bar only. Hold

operator presence control bar down against handle to continue mowing without self-propelling.

NOTE: If after releasing the drive control the mower will not roll backwards, push

the mower forward slightly to disengage drive wheels,

,To keep drive control engaged when turning corners, push down on the handle to lift the front wheels off the

ground while turning lawn mower,

2, Loosen nut, move drive control hous- ing down handle to the next hole and retighten nut,

3.Operate mower to test drive speed.

4.If condition fails to improve after the above steps (forward speed remains the same), your drive belt is worn and should be replaced,

TO ADJUST CUTTING HEIGHT

your requirements, Medium position is best for most lawns.
