STARTING AND SHUT OFF

WARNING: Improper operation can lead to injury. Learn what the controls do and how they work. Thoroughly read and understand entire Operator Manual.

See Figure 4 for all Controls and Features.

NOTE: Start engine on a level surface that is free of debris.

Manual Start

1.Check each item under Before Each Use in the MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE on page 17.

2.For engines with a primer, push primer bulb 2 or 3 times for a cold engine.

3.For engines with a throttle, place throttle control in the choke position. Once the engine has started, place throttle in the high speed detent.

4.With engine/blade control held against the handlebar, grasp starter handle and pull rope slowly until it pulls harder. This is the compression stroke. Let rope rewind slowly.

5.Pull rope with rapid continuous full arm stroke to start engine. Allow rope to rewind slowly.

6.Repeat steps 4 and 5 until engine starts. (If engine does not start, see TROUBLESHOOTING on page 25.)

Shut Off

1.Release wheel drive control and allow unit to stop completely (self-propelled models).

2.Release engine/blade control.

Mowing Tips

Cut grass when it is dry. Keep mower blades sharp.

Do not set cutting height too low. For tall grass, mow twice.

Do not mow too fast.

Mow with engine at full throttle. Discharge clippings into areas already cut.

Vary cutting pattern with each mowing.

NOTE: To prevent dirt and grass from collecting on mower pan, avoid operating over bare ground with only patches of grass.

Mulching Tips

For best mulching performance, cut no more than 1 inch (2.54 cm) of grass per cutting.
