GASOLINE
IMPORTANT: ALWAYS use gasoline that meets the following guidelines:
Clean, fresh gasoline.
A minimum of 87 octane/87 AKI (91
RON). High altitude use may require a different octane. Consult your engine manual.
Gasoline with up to 10% ethanol
(gasohol) or up to 15% MTBE (methyl tertiary butyl ether) is acceptable.
Use of any gasoline other than those approved above may void the engine warranty. If the pumps are not marked for the content of alcohol or ethers, check ethanol and MTBE levels with the fuel supplier.
Do not modify the fuel system to use different fuels.
Never mix oil and gasoline.
NOTE: All gasoline is not the same. If the engine experiences starting or performance problems after using a new gasoline, switch to a different fuel provider or fuel brand.
IMPORTANT: Excessively oxygenated or reformulated fuels (fuels blended with alcohols or ethers) can damage the fuel system or cause performance problems.
If any undesirable operating problems occur, use a gasoline with a lower percentage of alcohol or ether.
Fuel Stabilizer
Gasoline left in the fuel system for extended periods without a stabilizer will deteriorate, resulting in gum deposits in the system.
These deposits can damage the carburetor and the fuel hoses, filter and tank. Prevent deposits from forming in the fuel system during storage by adding a quality fuel stabilizer to the fuel. Follow the recommended mix ratio found on the fuel stabilizer container.
STOPPING IN AN EMERGENCY
Bring steering levers back to neutral, set parking brake, and turn off engine.
MOVING UNIT MANUALLY
WARNING: DO NOT disengage downhill.

LEVELLING AND ADJUSTING
PITCH OF MOWER DECK
NOTE: Adjust on a level surface, with the tires inflated to the correct air pressure (see
SPECIFICATIONS on page 29).
There are three measurements required to level and adjust the pitch of the mower deck.
1. The distance from the mower blades to the ground.
2. The forward pitch of the mower blades.
3. The pitch of the mower blades from side-to-side.
The Distance From The Mower
Blades To The Ground (Figure 13):
In the lowest cutting position should be
1-1/2 in. + 1/4 in. (3.8 cm + 0.64 cm).
In the highest cutting position should be

Adjusting The Mower Deck To Adjust
Mower Blade Height And Pitch
(Figure 17):
NOTE: Adjusting the mower deck will adjust the height and pitch of the mower blades.
1. Adjust the trunnions first and re-take the three measurements required to level and adjust the pitch of the mower deck.
These measurements are: a.
The distance from the mower blades to the ground.
b. The forward pitch of the mower blades.
c.
The pitch of the mower blades from side-to-side.
2. Repeat step 1 as needed until all three measurements are within the tolerances specified.

Adjustment
(Figure 21)
IMPORTANT: The unit should track within
2 feet (0.61 m) of a straight line for 30 feet
(9.14 m).
The travel of the steering levers may need adjustment if:
The unit turns to the right or left when both steering levers are pushed as far forward as possible.
The unit turns to the right or left when both steering levers are pulled back as far rearward as possible.
NOTE: The side the unit turns toward indicates that the wheel on that side is turning slower than the other wheel. Either the wheel that is turning faster needs to slow down or the wheel that is turning slower needs to be sped up to allow the unit to travel in a straight line.
1. Determine which way the unit turns.
NOTE: The forward travel adjustment bolt adjusts the rear travel of the steering lever.
The rear travel adjustment bolt adjusts the forward travel of the steering lever.
2. Adjust speed by loosing jam nut and:
Turning adjustment bolt clockwise to decrease steering lever travel.
Turning adjustment bolt counter clockwise to increase steering lever travel.

Short Term Storage
IMPORTANT: NEVER clean unit with highpressure water or store unit outdoors.
Remove all dirt, grease, leaves, etc. Store in a clean dry area.
Inspect unit for signs of wear or damage.
Ensure all fasteners are properly tightened.
Long Term Storage
Follow all instructions under Short Term
Storage.
Remove and fully charge battery. Store in a clean dry area.
Drain fuel from fuel tank.
Refer to Engine Manual for the proper engine storage procedures.
Touch up all scratched or chipped paint surfaces.

Fuel System
Gasoline left in the fuel system for extended periods without a stabilizer will deteriorate, resulting in gum deposits in the system.
These deposits can damage the carburetor and the fuel hoses, filter and tank. Prevent deposits from forming in the fuel system during storage by adding a quality fuel stabilizer to the fuel. Follow the recommended mix ratio found on the fuel stabilizer container.
To treat the fuel system for storage:
1. Add fuel stabilizer according to manufacturers's instructions.
2. Run engine for at least 10 minutes after adding stabilizer to allow it to reach the carbu retor.
NEVER store the engine with fuel in the fuel tank inside of a building with potential sources of ignition.
