Never use choke to stop engine.

NOTE: Under certain conditions when tractor is standing idle with the engine running, hot engine exhaust gases may cause "browning" of grass. To eliminate this possi- bility, always stop engine when stopping tractor on grass areas.

*Graspliftlever.

*Press plunger with thumb and move lever to desired posi- tion.

The cutting height range is approximately 1-112 to 4". The heights are measured from the ground to the blade tip with the engine not running. These heights are approximate and may vary depending upon soil condi- tions, height of grass and types of grass being mowed.

*The average lawn should be cut to approximately 2-112

inches during the cool season and to over 3 inches during hot months. For healthier and better looking lawns, mow often and after moderate growth.

*For best cutting performance, grass over 6 inches in height should be mowed twice. Make the first cut relatively high; the second to desired height.
