OPERATION

The operation of any lawn mower can result in foreign objects thrown into the eyes, which can result in severe eye damage. Always wear safety glasses or eye shields while operating your lawn mower or performing any adjustments or repairs. We recommend standard safety glasses or a wide vision safety mask over spectacles.

HOW TO USE YOUR LAWN MOWER

THROTTLE/ENGINE CONTROL (See Fig. 5)

The engine is controlled by a throttle control located on the side of the upper handle. START position is for starting a cold engine; FAST position is for starting a warm engine, normal cutting, trimming and better grass bagging; SLOW position is for light cutting, trimming and fuel economy, and STOP position is for stopping the engine.

BLADE CONTROL (See Fig. 6)

CAUTION: When the blade control is engaged, the blade turns.

To start the blade, push the blade/brake control lever forward (1) and hold the operator presence control bar down to the handle (2). To stop the blade, release the operator presence control bar.

Allow a cold engine to warm up in high idle position for one minute before engaging the blade.

NOTE: It is normal to hear the belt slip as the blade is engaged and comes up to speed.

Do not start the blade in uncut grass. Move the mower out of uncut grass before starting the blade.

CAUTION: Federal regulations require this blade/brake control to minimize the risk of blade contact injury. Do not under any circumstances attempt to defeat the function of this control.
