CAUTION : Alcohol blended fuels, called gasohol or using ethanol or methane can attract moisture which
leads to separation and formation of acids during storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel system of an
engine while in storage. To avoid engine problems, the fuel system should be emptied
before storage of 30 days or longer. Empty the gas tank, start the engine and let it run until the fuel lines
and carburetor are empty. Use fresh fuel next season. See Storage Instructions for additional
information.
Never use engine or carburetor cleaner products in the fuel tank or permanent damage may occur.
START ENGINE
To start the engine, first make sure that the spark plug and that the machine is filled with sufficient oil
and petrol.
NOTE: Due to protective coating on the engine, a small amount of smoke may be present during the
initial use of the product and should be considered normal.
Hold operator presence control bar down to the handle and pull starter handle quickly.
Do not allow starter rope to snap back.
NOTE: In cold condition, it’s necessary to push the prime button on the air filter before pulling the starter
coil, (Please see from 1).
We also should put more fuel to mix with air for easy start. When you push the prime button, it will
pump the fuel direct from carburetor to burning housing.

STOP ENGINE

To stop engine, release operator presence control bar.
WARNING! The blade will continue to rotate for a few seconds after the engine has stopped.
Disconnect the spark plug cap if the lawnmower is to be left unattended.
MOWING TIPS

Under certain conditions, such as very tall grass, it may be necessary to raise the height of cut to
reduce pushing effort and to keep from overloading the engine and leaving clumps of grass clippings.
It may also be necessary to reduce ground speed and/or run the lawn mower over the area a
second time.

For extremely heavy cutting, reduce the width of cut by over lapping previously cut path and mow
slowly.

Pores in cloth grass catchers can become filled with dirt and dust with use and catchers will collect
less grass. To prevent this, regularly hose catcher off with water and let dry before using.
