Dear Owner:

Thank you for purchasing this Wide Cut Mower. You now own one of the finest walk-behind mulching/side dis- charge mowers available.

Your new mower allows you to mow much faster than the usual walk-behind mower because of its wide 33" cut. Differential steering makes turning easy, while four for- ward speeds and one reverse speed allow precise mowing control. The wide turf tires give excellent traction, and the cutting height can be adjusted with the turn of a single lever. We know that there is no better walk-behind mower that is available for large lawns.

Please carefully read this Operator’s Manual which tells you how to safely and easily assemble, operate and main- tain your machine.

Be sure that you and any other user carefully follow the recommended safety practices at all times. Failure to do so could result in personal injury or property damage.

If you have any questions regarding the operation or main- tenance of this machine, or desire information not found in this Operator’s Manual, contact your local White Outdoor Products Dealer. If you need help locating a dealer, please call the customer dealer referral line. You can reach them by calling: 1-800-949-4483.
