3.2
PRE-START
3.2.1 Fill fuel tank. For best results use only clean, fresh regular grade
unleaded
gasoline
with an octane rating of 87 or higher. Regular grade leaded gasoline may also be
used; however, combustion chamber and cylinder head will require more frequent
service. See Engine Owner's Manual.
DO NOT
add oil to gasoline.
Do Not
overfill fuel tank. Never fill the fuel tank so that the fuel level rises above a
level that is 1/2” below the bottom of the filler neck to allow for fuel expansion and
prevent fuel spillage.
3.2.2 Make sure you understand the controls, their locations, their functions, and their
safety requirements.
3.2.3 Refer to Maintenance, Section 4, and perform all the necessary inspection and
maintenance steps.
3.3
MOWING
3.3.1 Operate units with the roll bar in the raised and locked position and use seat belt.
There is no rollover protection when the roll bar is down. If it is necessary to lower
roll bar do not wear the seat belt. Raise the roll bar as soon as clearance permits.
3.3.2 Open fuel shut-off valve.
The fuel shut-off valve is located under the seat in the fuel line between the left
fuel tank and the engine.
3.3.3 Starting
Engine:
Brake must be engaged
,
the PTO switch disengaged
, and
the motion control
levers out (neutral lock position).
(The operator does not need to be in the seat
to start the engine.)
On a
cold
engine, place the
throttle midway
between the “SLOW” and “FAST”
positions and place the
choke
to the “ON” position. Turn ignition switch to the
“start” position. Release the switch as soon as the engine starts.
IMPORTANT:
DO NOT
crank the engine continuously for more than ten (10)
seconds at a time. If the engine does not start, allow a 60 second cool-down
period between starting attempts. Failure to follow these guidelines can
burn out the starter motor.
After starting a cold engine, gradually return choke to the “OFF” position as the
engine warms up.
On a
warm
engine, place the
throttle midway
between the “SLOW” and “FAST”
positions and leave the
choke
in the “OFF” position.
