A 20 oz. bottle of Pennzoil SAE 30 Oi! is included with your new lawn mower.

* Remove engine oil cap with dipstick (See Fig. 10) and fiJ! to the FULL line on the dipstick.

" Use 20 ozs. of SAE 30 oil. SAE 10W 30 oil can also be used.

DO NOT use SAE lOW 40 oil.

, POUR OIL SLOWLY.

DO NOT OVER FILL.

® Check oil level before each use. Add oil if need- ed.

Fill to FULL line on dipstick.

® To read proper level, tighten engine oi! cap each time.

o Replace engine oil cap with dipstick and tighten.

After the first two (2) hours of mowing, change the oil, and every 25 hours thereafter.

You may

need to change the oil more often under dusty, dirty conditions.

GAS:

* Fill gasoline tank with fresh, clean unleaded gasoline.

DO NOT USE PREMIUM GASOLINE.

BE CAREFUL NOT TO OVERFILL TANK (SEE

FIG.

10).

WARNING: 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 for 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 rue)

next season. See Storage Instructions for addifiona_ information.

Never use engine or carburetor cleaner products in the fuel tank or permanent damage may occur.

Your lawn mower is equipped with an Operator

Engine Control Bar which requires the operator to be positioned behind the lawn mower handle to start and operate the lawn mower.

To start a cold engine, push primer five (5) times before trying to start.

Use a firm push° This step

is not usually necessary when starting an engine which has already run for a few minutes°

ff

you do flood engine wait o few minutes before attempting to start and DO NOT repea_ priming steps_ e 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 dumps af grass clippings.

For extremely heavy cutting, reduce the width of cut and raise the rear of the lawn mower hous° ing one I1) wheel adjuster setting higher than the front for better discharge of grass.

When using a rear discharge lawn mower in moist, heavy grass, dumps of cut grass may not enter the grass catcher° Reduce ground speed tpushing speed) and/or run the lawn mower over the area a second tirae.

ff a trail of grass clippings is left on the right side of a rear discharge lawn mower, mow in a clockwise direction with a small overlap to col-

[oct the clippings on the next pass.

The vent holes in the baffle in back of apermanex catcher can become filled with dirt and dust with use and the catcher will collect less grass.

To prevent this, reguJarly hose the catcher baffle with water and let dry before using_
