OVER HEAD VALVES (OHV) & 4-STROKE ENGINES
• Four-stroke engines exhibit outstanding
power and durability, operational noise is ex-
ceptionally low. Also, exhaust is cleaner and
there is less smoke since there is no need to
blend oil with the gasoline. OHV engines con-
sume approximately 30% less fuel and 50%
less oil than side valve engines.
ATTENTION
4-STROKE ENGINES NEEDS TO BE FILLED WITH
THE RIGHT KIND OF FUEL LEVEL AND SAE-30
OIL (FOR 4 - STROKE ENGINES). YOUR 4-STROKE
LAWN MOWER WAS SHIPPED WITHOUT OIL.
PROCEED TO FILL WITH THE KIND OF OIL
SPECIFIED ABOVE.
Do not tilt the mower to proceed with the oil
filling, remove the oils cap then add the oil
into the oil’s tank until the indicator mark in
the oil’s cap indicate.
- Never allow children to operate the mower.
- Use extra care when approaching blind cor-
ners, shrubs, trees, of other objects that may
obscure vision.

other sources of ignition.

• Never remove gas cap or add fuel with the
engine running. Allow engine to cool before

• Never attempt to make wheel height adjust
-
ments while the engine is running.

wear, damage, and deterioration, which could
expose moving parts or allow objects to be

place with manufacturer’s recommended parts,
when necessary.
