TO CHANGE ENGINE OIL (SEE ENGINE MANUAL)

Be sure mower is on a level surface.

Oil will drain more freely when warm.

Catch oil in a suitable container.

For engines without dipstick, remove bottom oil drain plug.

For engines with oil fill cap/dipstick, remove bottom drain plug or remove en- gine oil cap and turn mower on its side.

After oil has drained completely, replace oil drain plug and tighten securely.

Refill engine with oil. Pour slowly. Do not overfill.

Fill to top of slot inside of filler hole or to “FULL” line on dipstick on models so equipped. Keep oil at proper level.

AIR FILTER

Your engine will not run properly and may be damaged by using a dirty air filter. Clean the element after every 25 hours of operation, more often if lawn mower is used in very dusty, dirty conditions.

See the maintenance section of your engine manual.

SPARK PLUG

Change the spark plug once a year to make the engine run better and easier to start. Set spark plug gap according to engine manual specifications.

MUFFLER

Inspect and replace corroded muffler as it could create a fire hazard and/or damage.

CLEANING

IMPORTANT: For best performance, keep mower housing free of grass build-up and trash. Clean the underside of your mower after each use.

Clean the underside of your lawn mower by scraping to remove buildup of grass and trash.

Clean engine often to keep trash from accumulating. A clogged engine runs hotter and shortens engine life.

Keep finished surfaces and wheels free of all gasoline, oil, etc.

We do not recommend using a garden hose to clean your lawn mower unless the electrical system, muffler, air filter, and carburetor are covered to keep water out. Water in engine can shorten engine life.

SERVICE AND ADJUSTMENTS

CAUTION: Before performing any service or adjustments-

Release operator presence control bar.

Make sure the blade and all moving parts have completely stopped.

Disconnect spark plug wire from spark plug and place wire where it cannot come in contact with plug.

LAWN MOWER

REAR DEFLECTOR (IF EQUIPPED)

The rear deflector, attached between the rear wheels of your mower, is provided to minimize the possibility that objects will be thrown out of the rear of the mower into the operator mowing position. If the deflector becomes damaged, it should be replaced.

ENGINE

CARBURETOR

The carburetor has been preset at the fac- tory and adjustment should not be neces- sary. However, minor adjustment may be required to compensate for differences in fuel, temperature, altitude or load.

The air filter must be assembled to the carburetor when running engine.

Best carburetor adjustment is obtained when fuel tank is 1/4 full.

In order for the engine to run, the operator presence control bar must be held in the operating position. Therefore, and assis- tant will be required to hold the control bar

in the operating position when making final adjustment to the carburetor.

See the ADJUSTMENT section of your engine manual for further instructions.

ENGINE SPEED

The engine speed has been factory set. Do not attempt to increase engine speed as it may result in personal injury. If you believe the engine is running too fast or too slow, take your lawn mower to an authorized engine service center for repair and adjustment.

THROTTLE CONTROL

If it becomes necessary to adjust or re- place the throttle control, see the ADJUST- MENT section of your engine manual.
