TRANSPORTING THE MOWER

Before Loading
If the engine has been running,
allow it to cool for at least 15
minutes before loading the
mower on the transport vehicle.
Be sure the throttle is in the
FUEL OFF position to prevent
carburetor flooding and reduce
the possibility of fuel leakage.
Loading and Unloading
If a suitable loading ramp is not available, two people should lift
the mower on and off the transport vehicle while holding the
mower level.
Position the mower so all four wheels are on the bed of the
transport vehicle. Tie the mower down with rope or straps, and
block the wheels. Keep the tie-down rope or straps away from
the controls, adjustment levers, cables, and the carburetor.
The handlebar can be folded so the mower will take up less
space.
If unloading the HRM21 SSDA (self-propelled) backward down a
loading ramp, avoid touching the drive clutch lever. Engaging the
drive clutch, while rolling backward down a ramp, can damage
the drive system.
