O WHEN PULLING THE STARTER HANDLE OF YOUR
MOWER, STAND FIRM, BEHIND THE MOWER AS
SHOWN ON PG. 6 AND MAKE SURE YOUR FEET ARE
WELL AWAY FROM THE BLADE AND ALL MOVING
PARTS.
O AFTER STRIKING A FOREIGN OBJECT, SHUT OFF THE
ENGINE, MAKE ABSOLUTELY SURE THE BLADE AND
ALL MOVING PARTS HAVE COMPLETELY STOPPED,
DISCONNECT THE SPARK PLUG WIRE FROM THE
SPARK PLUG AND KEEP THE WIRE AWAY FROM THE
PLUG TO PREVENT ACCIDENTAL STARTING, THEN
THROUGHLY INSPECT THE MOWER FOR ANY DAM-
AGE. SUCH DAMAGE MUST BE REPAIRED BEFORE
RESTARTING AND OPERATING THE MOWER. RE-
MEMBER, HEAVY VIBRATION IS GENERALLY A SIGN
OF TROUBLE.
O STOP THE ENGINE WHENEVER YOU LEAVE THE
MOWER, BEFORE CROSSING DRIVES, WALKS OR
ROADS, OR WORKING ON THE MOWER.
O NEVER CUT GRASS BY PULLING THE MOWER
TOWARDS YOU. MOW ACROSS THE FACE OF
SLOPES, NEVER UP AND DOWN. DO NOT MOW
EXCESSIVELY STEEP SLOPES. USE CAUTION WHEN
OPERATING THE MOWER ON UNEVEN TERRAIN OR
CHANGING DIRECTION; MAINTAIN GOOD FOOTING.

TERRAIN. UNDER THESE CONDITIONS THE GRASS
CATCHER SHOULD BE EMPTIED FREQUENTLY.
CLOGGING CHUTE, SHUT ENGINE OFF AND WAIT
UNTIL BLADE COMES TO A COMPLETE STOP.

GET THE MOST FROM YOUR GASOLINE-POWERED MOWER
IMPORTANT TIPS TO HELP YOUR LAWN MOWER, START FASTER, RUN BETTER AND LAST LONGER
. Use unleaded gasoline: It burns
cleaner and leaves less residue in
the engine. Regular Gasoline can
also be used.
. Drain or “run-out” all gasoline
from the tank at the end of the
season: DO NOT leave gasoline in
your mower when stored for long
periods. It will “gum-up” your
engine. Run engine until the gas
runs out.
. Start each mowing season with
fresh gasoline: DO NOT keep“ old”
gasoline in your gasoline can. If
your gasoline can is starting to rust,
get a new can.
. Change your spark plug every
ely il Dill sag
spring Old, corroded spark plugs
prevents fast starting and smooth
running engines.
. Clean or change your air filter often:
Dirt, along with heat - can harm
your engine — the filter will clog up,
preventing clean air from reaching
your engine. Polyurethane filters
can be washed and relubricated,
. Use SAE 10W30 or SAE 30 oil:
Do not use 10 W40.
. Change oil as recommended:
IMPORTANT - Change oil after
first two (2) hours of use, and then
every 25 hours of use.
. Replace the blade when needed:
You can sharpen the blade — but we
Page 4
do not recommend it. Erosion from
hitting foreign objects can damage
the blade and affect the “lift”. Re
place with one specifically designed
for your mower.
9. At the end of each season, clean
your mower. IMPORTANT - First
disconnect the spark plug wire. If
possible, store in a place that will be
free of moisture where mower will
not rust, for instance, ina basement.
10. Follow the care suggestions in
your owners manual: Read your
manual and keep it in a convenient
place.
11. DONOT put additives in the oil or
gasoline. Do not use gasohol.

POINTS BEFORE STARTING
ENGINE
1. Place unit so engine is in a level
position.
2. Remove oil fill plug (figure 5) and
fill crankcase (pour slowly) with
approximately 1 pint of oil to top of
oil fill hole. NOTE: Use a high
quality detergent oil classified
“For service SC, SD, SE, or SF”,
such as SAE 10 W - 30 (SAE 30 is
an acceptable substitute). DO
NOT USE 10W40 OIL. Crank-
case capacity is approximately 21
ounces (1% pints). Crankcase oil
should be changed after first two
(2) hours of operation and every
twenty-five (25) hours thereafter.
3. Replace oil fill plug and tighten

the engine is running or hot.
immediately wipe off any spil-
led gasoline before attempt
ing to start engine.
À caution A
4. Fill gas tank with clean, fresh, lead-
free grade automotive gasoline.
Low-lead or regular gasoline is an
acceptable substitute. Do not use
Ethyl or high octane gasoline or
gasohol. Be certain container is
clean and free from rust or foreign
particles. Never use gasoline that
may be stale from long periods of
storage in the container.
5. Check all nut and bolts to be sure
none are loose.
6. Check to make sure that spark plug
is tightened securely into engine and
that spark plug wire is attached to
spark plug. |

oil more often under dusty conditions.
ER.
Store Lawn Mower in a cool, dry place
when not in use. Do not cover Lawn
Mower with solid plastic sheet. Trap
ping morsture around Lawn Mower
will promote rust and corrosion.
For long term storage and at the end of
each mowing season — prepare for
storage as outlined below:
i. Drain gas tank and carburetor by
allowing engine to run out of
gasolme.
NEVER store the Mower with GAS-
OLINE IN THE TANK inside a
building where fumes may reach an
open flame or spark, Allow the Engine
to Cool before storing in any enclosure.
STORAGE
NOTE: Evaporating gasoline will
leave gum deposits if not drained com-
pletely. These deposits will make fuel
systems moperative, resulting in hard,
or non starting of engine when again
used,
2. Do not save or store gasoline over
winter. Using old gasoline which
has deteriorated from storage will
cause hard starting and affect engine
performance.
3. Clean unit prior to storing for long
periods of time. Refer to CLEAN-
ING on page 6.
4. This is a convenient time to change
oil. Clean oil will prolong the useful
life of your lawn mower.
3. During extended periods of storage
the mower will occupy Less Space if
Handle is Folded. Loosen the Two(2)
Wing Nuts on each side of the Handle-
bar, and let the Top Section fold down
to the rear. Squeeze inward on the
Lower Handiebar and swing forward
over Mower.
Be careful not to“ Pinch or Kink” the
Control Cables.
6. Before using the Mower again,
Check all Lubrication Points, Fill Fuel
Tank and Review Operating Instruc-
tions in the Operator's Manual and the
Engine Manual.
