of varnish deposits in the fuel system, use fuel stabilizer
at all times.
Filling the Fuel Tank
Note:
Ensure that the engine is shut off and the motion
controls are in the parked position.
Note:
You can use the fuel window to verify the presence of
gasoline before filling the tank (
).
Important:
Do not overfill fuel tank. Fill the fuel tank
to the bottom of the filler neck. The empty space in the
tank allows the fuel to expand. Overfilling may result in
fuel leakage, damage to the engine, or damage to the
emissions system.

Checking the Engine-Oil Level
Before you start the engine and use the machine, check
the oil level in the engine crankcase; refer to
Engine-Oil Level (page 30)
.
Breaking in a New Machine
New engines take time to develop full power. Mower decks
and drive systems have higher friction when new, placing
additional load on the engine. Allow 40 to 50 hours of
break-in time for new machines to develop full power and
best performance.
Think Safety First
Operating Safety
Please carefully read all of the safety instructions and decals
in the safety section. Knowing this information could help
you, your family, pets, or bystanders avoid injury.
DANGER
Mowing on wet grass or steep slopes can cause
sliding and loss of control.
Wheels dropping over edges can cause rollovers,
which may result in serious injury, death, or
drowning.
A loss of traction is a loss of steering control.
To avoid loss of control and possibility of rollover:
•
Do not mow near drop-offs or near water.
•
Do not mow slopes greater than 15 degrees.
•
Reduce the speed and use extreme caution on
slopes.
•
When mowing slopes, gradually work from
lower to higher areas on the incline.
•
Avoid sudden turns or rapid speed changes.
•
Turn up, into an incline when changing
directions on slopes. Turning down the slope
reduces traction.
•
Attachments change the handling characteristics
of the machine. Use extra caution when using
attachments with the machine.
