Read, understand, and follow all instructions in the manual
and on the machine before starting.
Only allow responsible adults, who are familiar with the
instructions, io operate the machine.
Clear the area of objecis such as rocks, toys, wire, etc,
which could be picked up and thrown by the blade.
Be sure the area is clear of other people before mowing. Stop
machine if anyone enters the area.
Never carry passengers.
Do not mow in reverse unless absolutely necessary. Always
look down and behind before and while backing.
Be aware of the mower discharge direction and do not point
it at anyone. Do not operate the mower without either the
entire grass catcher or the guard in place.
Slow down before turning.

Turn off blades when not mowing.
Stop engine before removing grass catcher or unclogging
chute. —

Slopes are a major factor related to loss-of-control and
tipoveraccidents, which canresultin severe injury ordeath.
All slopes require exira caution. If you cannot back up the
slope or if you feel uneasy on it, do not mow it.
Mow up and down slopes, not across.
Remove obstacles such as rocks, tree limbs, etc.
Watch for holes, ruts, or bumps. Uneven terrain could
overturn the machine. Tall grass can hide obstacles.
Use slow speed. Choose a low gear so that you will not have
to stop or shift while on the slope.
Follow the manufacturers recommendations for wheel
weights or counterweighis to improve stability.
Use exira care with grass calchers or other attachments.
These can change the stability of the machine.
Keep all movement on the slopes slow and gradual. Do not
make sudden changes in speed or direction.
Avoid starting or stopping on a siope. If tires lose traction,
disengage the blades and proceed slowly straight down the
slope
Do not turn on slopes unless necessary, andthen, turn slowly
and gradually downhill, if possible.
Do not mow near drop-offs, diiches, or embankments. The
mower could suddenly tum over if a wheel is over the edge
of a cliff or ditch, or if an edge caves in.
Do not mow on wet grass. Reduced traction could cause
sliding.
Do not try to stabilize the machine by pulling your foot on the
ground.
Do nof use grass catcher on steep slopes.

LH Experience indicates that alcohol blended
fuels (called gasohol or using ethanol or methanol) can
attract moisture which leads io 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 betore stor-
age 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 Instruc-
tions for additional information. Never use engine or

damage may occur.

COLD WEATHER STARTING ( 50° F and below)
» Whenengine starts, allow engine to run withthe throttle
control in the choke (3) position until the engine runs
roughly, then move throttle control to fast (4) position.
This may require an engine warm-up period from
several seconds to several minutes, depending on the
temperature.
s The attachments can also be used during the engine
warm-up period. |
NOTE: If at a high altitude (above 3000 feet) or in cold
temperatures (below 32 F) the carburetor fuel mixture may
need to be adjusted for best engine performance. See “TO
ADJUST CARBURETOR?” in the Service and Adjustments
section of this manual.
Tire chains cannot be used when the mower housing is
attached to tractor.
Mower should be properly leveled for best mowing
performance. See “TO LEVEL MOWER HOUSING” in
the Service and Adjustments section of this manual.
The left hand side of mower should be used for trim-
ming.
Drive so that clippings are discharged onto the area
that has been cut. Have the cut area to the right of the
machine. This will result in a more even distribution of
clippings and more uniform cutting.
When mowing large areas, start by turning to the right
so that clippings will discharge away from shrubs,
fences, driveways, etc. After one or two rounds, mow
in the opposite direction making left hand turns until
finished (See Fig. 8).
if grass is extremely tall, it should be mowed twice to
reduce load and possible fire hazard from dried ciip-
pings. Make first cut relatively high; the second to the
desired height.
Do not mow grass when it is wet. Wet grass will plug
mower and leave undesirable clumps. Allow grass 10
dry before mowing.
Always operate engine at full throttle when mowing to
assure better mowing performance and proper dis-
charge of material. Regulate ground speed Dy select-
ing a low enough gear to give the mower cutting
performance as well as the quality of cut desired.
When operating attachments, select a ground speed
that will suit the terrain and give best performance of
the attachment being used.

Care should be taken to keep the blade balanced. An
unbalanced blade will cause excessive vibration and even-
tual damage to mower and engine.
e The blade canbe sharpened with a file or on a grinding
wheel. Do not attempt to sharpen while on the mower.
е To check blade balance, you will need a 5/8" diameter
steel bolt, pin, or a cone balancer. (Wnen USING a cone
balancer, follow the instructions supplied with bal
ancer).
e Slide blade onto an unthreaded portion of the steel bolt
or pin and hold the bolt or pin parallel with the ground,
if blade is balanced, it should remain in a horizontal
position. If either end of the blade moves downward,
sharpen the heavy end until the blade is balanced.

improve starting in cold weather, these multi-viscosi ty oils
will result in increased oil consumption when used above

possible engine damage from running low on oil. -
Change the oil after the first two hours of operation and
every 50 hours thereafter or at least once a year if the
tractor is not used for SC hours in one year.
Check the crankcase oil level before starting the engine
and after each eight (8) hours of operation. Tighten oil fill

The carburetor has been preset at the factory and adjust-

ment may be required to compensate fordifferences infuel,
temperature, altitude or load. If the carburetor does need
adjustment, proceed as follows:
In general, turning idle mixture valve in (clockwise) de-
creases the supply of fuel to the engine giving a leaner fuel/
air mixture. Turning the idle mixture valve out (counter-
clockwise) increases the supply of fuel to the engine giving
a richer fuel/air mixture.
IMPORTANT: DAMAGE TO THE NEEDLE VALVE AND
THE SEAT IN CARBURETOR MAY RESULT IF SCREW IS
TURNED IN TOO TIGHT.
PRELIMINARY SETTING -
е Air cleaner assembly must be assembled to the carbu-
retor when making carburetor adjustments.
e Be sure the throttle control cable is adjusted properly
(see above).
> With engine off turn idle mixture valve in (clockwise)
closing it finger tight and then turn out (counterclock-
wise) 1 full tum. |
FINAL SETTING -
Start engine and allow to warm for five minutes. Make
final adjustments with engine running and shift/motion
control lever in neutral (N) position.
o Move throttle control lever to slow (~g@&) position. With
finger, rotate and hold throttle lever against idle speed
screw. Turn idle speed screw to attain 1750 RPM.
e While still holding throttle lever against idle speed
screw, turn idle mixture valve in (clockwise) until en-
gine beginsto die and then tum out (counterclockwise)
until engine runs rough. Turn valve to a point midway
between those two positions. Release throtile lever.
