ENGINE

· Fill fuel tank. Use fresh, clean, regular unleaded gasoline with a minimum of
87 octane(Use of leaded gasoline will increase carbon and lead oxide
deposits and reduce valve life). Do not mix oil with gasoline. Purchase fuel in quantities that can be used within 30
days to assure fuel freshness. AWARNING: Experience indicates that
alcohol blended fuels (called gasohol or using ethanol or methanol) can attract
moisture which leads to separation and formation of acids during storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel system of an engine while in storage. To avoid engine problems, the fuel system should be emptied before storage of 30 days or longer, Drain the gas tank, start the engine and let it run until the fuel lines and carburetor are empty. Use fresh fuel
next season. See Storage Instructions for additional information. Never use engine or carburetor cleaner products in the fuel tank or permanent damage may occur.
_IbCAUTION: Fill to bottom of gas tank filler neck, Do not overfill, Wipe off any
spilled oil or fuel. Do not store, spill or use gasoline near an open flame.

OIL
Your lawn mower is shipped without oil in
the engine. · Be sure mower is level and area
around oil fill is clean.
· Remove engine oil cap and fill to the full line on the dipstick.
NOTE: Allow oil to settle down into engine for accurate dipstick reading. · Engine holds 18.5 ozs. of oil. For type
and grade of oil to use, see “ENGINE” in Maintenance section of this manual.
· Pour oil slowly. Do not over fill. · Check oil level before each use. Add
oil if needed. Fill to full line on dipstick. · To read proper level, tighten engine oil
cap each time. · Reinstall engine oil cap and tighten. · Change the oil after every 25 hours of
operation or each season. You may need to change the oil more often under dusty, dirty conditions.

MOWING TIPS · Under certain conditions, such as very
tall grass, it may be necessary to raise the height of cut to reduce pushing effort and to keep from overloading the engine and leaving clumps of grass clippings. It may also be necessary to reduce ground speed and/or run the lawn mower over the area a second time. · For extremely heavy cutting, reduce the width of cut by overlapping previously cut path and mow slowly. · For better grass bagging and most cutting conditions, the engine speed should be set in the fast position. · When using a rear discharge lawn mower in moist, heavy grass, clumps of cut grass may not enter the grass catcher. Reduce ground speed (pushing speed) and/or run the lawn mower over the area a second time. · If a trail of clippings is left on the right side of a rear discharge mower, mow in a clockwise direction with a small ovedap to collect the clippings on the next pass. · Pores in cloth grass catchers can become filled with dirt and dust with use and catchers will collect less grass. To prevent this, regularly hose catcher off with water and let dry before using. · Keep top of engine around starter clear
and clean of grass clippings and chaff. This will help engine air flow and extend engine life.

MULCHING MOWING TIPS
IMPORTANT: For best performance,
keep mower housing free of built-up
grass and trash. See =Cleaning” in MAINTENANCE section of this manual.
· The special mulching blade will recut the grass clippings many times and reduce them in size so that as they fall onto the lawn they will disperse into the grass and
not be noticed. Also, the mulched grass will biedegrade quickly to provide nutrientsfor the lawn. Always mulch with your highest engine (blade) speed as this will provide the best recutting action of the blades. · Avoid cutting your lawn when it is wet. Wet
grass tends to form dumps and interferes with the mulching action. The best time to mow your lawn is the eady aftemcon. At this time the grass has dried and the newly cut area will not be exposed to the direct sun.
· For best results, adjust the lawn mower cutting height so that the lawn mower cuts off only the top one-third of the grass blades. If the lawn is overgrown it will be necessary to raise the height of cutto reduce pushing effort and to keep from overloading the engine and leaving clumps of mulched grass. For extremely heavy mulching, reduce your width of cut
by overlapping previously cut path and mow slowly. · Certain types of grass and grass conditions may require that an area be mulched a second time to completely hide the clippings. When doing a second cut, mew across or perpendicular to the first cut path. · Change your cutting pattem from week to week. Mow north to south one week then
change to east to west the next week. This will help prevent matting and graining of the lawn.

filter and carburetor are up. 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 de not recommend using a garden hose to clean lawn mower unless the
electrical system, muffler, air filter and carburetor are covered to keep water out. Water in engine can result in shortened engine life.
CLEAN UNDER DRIVE COVER Clean under ddve cover at least twice a
season. Scrape underside of cover with putty knife or similar tool to remove any buildupof trash or grass on underside of drive cover.

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

CARBURETOR
Your carburetor is not adjustable. If your engine does not operate properly due to suspected carburetor problems, take your lawn mower to an authorized service center for repair and/or adjustment. IMPORTANT: Never tamper with the engine governor, which is factory set for proper engine speed. Overspeeding the engine above the factory high speed setting can be dangerous. If you think the engine-governed high speed needs adjusting, contact your nearest authorized service center, which has proper equipment and experience to make any necessary adjustments.

Immediately prepare your lawn mower for storage at the end of the season or if the unit will not be used for 30 days or more.
LAWN MOWER
When lawn mower is to be stored for a
period of time, clean it thoroughly, remove all dirt, grease, leaves, etc. Store in a clean, dry area. · Clean entire lawn mower (See
“CLEANING” in the Maintenance
“section of this manual). · Lubricate as shown in the Maintenance
section of this manual. · Be sure that all nuts, bolts, screws, and
pins are securely fastened. Inspect moving parts for damage, breakage and wear. Replace if necessary. · Touch up all rusted or chipped paint surfaces; sand lightly before painting. HANDLE
You can fold your lawn mower handle for storage. · Squeeze the bottom ends of the lower
handle toward each other until the lower handle clears the handle bracket, then move handle forward.
· Loosen upper handle mounting bolts enough to allow upper handle to be folded back.
IMPORTANT: When folding the handle for storage or transportation, be sure to fold the handle as shown or you may damage the control cables.
· When setting up your handle from the storage position, the lower handle will automatically lock into the mowing .position.

ENGINE
FUELSYSTEM
IMPORTANT: It is important to prevent gum deposits from forming in essential fuel system parts such as carburetor, fuel filter, fuel hose, or tank during storage. Also, experience indicates that alcohol
blended fuels (called gasohol or using ethanol or methanol) can attract moisture which leads to separation and formation of acids during storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel system of an engine while in storage. · Drain the fuel tank. · Start the engine and let it run until the
fuel lines and carburetor are empty. · Never use engine or carburetor cleaner
products in the fuel tank or permanent damage may occur. · Use fresh fuel next season. NOTE: Fuel stabilizer is an acceptable alternative in minimizing the formation of fuel gum deposits during storage. Add stabilizer to gasoline in fuel tank or storage container. Always follow the mix ratio found on stabilizer container. Run
engine at least 10 minutes after adding stabilizer to allow the stabilizer to reach the carburetor. Do not drain the gas tank and carburetor if using fuel stabilizer. ENGINEOIL

Hairpin cotter

Drain oil (with engine warm) and replace with clean engine oil. (See “ENGINE” in the Maintenance section of this manual). CYLINDER

· Remove spark plug. · Pour one ounce (29 ml) of oil through
spark plug hole into cylinder. · Pull starter handle slowly a few times to
distribute oil.

16 · Replace with new spark plug.

OTHER

· Do not store gasoline from one season to another.

· Replace your gasoline can if your can starts to rust. Rust and/or dirt in your gasoline will cause problems.
· If possible, store your unit indoors and cover it to give protection from dust and dirt.
· Cover your unit with a suitable protective cover that does not retain moisture.
Do not use plastic. Plastic cannot breathe which allows condensation to
form and will cause your unit to rust.
