ENGLISH
Never use stale or contaminated gasoline or an oil/gasoline mixture.
Avoid getting dirt or water in the fuel tank.
NOTICE
Fuel can damage paint and plastic. Be careful not to spill fuel when
filling your fuel tank. Damage caused by spilled fuel is not covered
under warranty.
Remove the tank cap [1] and
check the fuel level. Refill the tank
if the fuel level is low. Refuel
carefully to avoid spilling fuel. Do
not overfill; there should be no fuel
in the filler neck [2].
After refueling, tighten the fuel tank
cap securely.
Move the mower at least 3 meters
away from the fueling source and site before starting the engine.
Air Cleaner Inspection
Remove cover [1]. Make sure the filter [2] is clean and in good
condition. A dirty air filter will restrict air flow to the carburetor,
reducing engine performance. Refer to page 15 for air cleaner
service.
Handlebar Height Adjustment
Handlebar [4] height can be adjusted to three positions: high [1],
middle [2], and low [3].
1. Loosen the handlebar locking knobs [5].
2. Spread the lower ends of the handlebar to release the locating
pins [6].
3. Move the handlebar up or down, so the locating pins engage other
holes on the handlebar mounting brackets.
4. Tighten the handlebar locking knobs securely.
Grass Bag
A lawn mower works like a vacuum cleaner; it blows air through the
bag, which traps the grass clippings. Always empty the grass bag
before it becomes filled to the limit of its capacity. Bagging
performance will diminish after the bag becomes about 90% filled.
Also, the bag is easier to empty when it is not packed full.
Inspection
During normal use, the grass bag material is subject to deterioration
and wear.
NOTICE
Frequently inspect the grass bag for tears, holes, and excessive wear.
Check for necessary replacement. Make sure the new bag meets the
original specifications.
If the grass bag needs replacement, you can remove and install a bag
yourself (page 18).
Installation
1. Raise the discharge
guard [1], and use
the grass bag handle
[3] to hook the grass
bag [2] onto the
mower deck as
shown.
2. Release the
discharge guard to
secure the grass
bag.
Removal
1. Raise the discharge
guard, grasp the
grass bag handle,
and remove the
grass bag.
2. Release the
discharge guard.
3. When the grass bag
is clear of the
discharge guard, you can lift it through the handlebar opening, or
you can remove it to the rear of the mower below the handlebar.
WARNING
Gasoline is highly flammable and explosive.
You can be burned or seriously injured when handling fuel.
• Stop the engine and keep heat, sparks, and flame away.
• Handle fuel only outdoors.
• Wipe up spills immediately.
