Starting Engine
WARNING:
Be sure no one other than the operator
is standing near the lawn mower while starting
engine or operating mower. Never run engine
indoors or in enclosed, poorly ventilated areas.
Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide, an
odorless and deadly gas. Keep hands, feet, hair and
loose clothing away from any moving parts on
engine and lawn mower.
Refer to engine manual for help with the engine.
1. Standing behind the mower, pull the blade control back
against the drive control. See Figure 5-1.
2. Recoil Start : While holding the blade and drive controls
together firmly, pull the recoil starter lightly until resistance
is felt, then pull rapidly to overcome compression, prevent
kickback, and start the engine. Repeat if necessary.
IMPORTANT:
Do not allow the recoil starter to snap back
against the rope guide. Return it gently to prevent damage
to the starter.
Electric Start (If Equipped): Insert plastic push key into
starter button until it snaps in. Push the electric starter
button to start the engine. See Figure 5-1.
Stopping Engine
1. Release blade control to stop the engine and blade.
WARNING:
Wait for the blade to stop completely
before performing any work on the mower or to
remove the grass catcher.
Using Your Lawn Mower
Be sure lawn is clear of stones, sticks, wire, or other objects
which could damage lawn mower or engine. Such objects could
be accidently thrown by the mower in any direction and cause
serious personal injury to the operator and others.
1. Once the engine is running and while continuing to hold
the blade and drive controls together, push the drive
control forward to propel mower. The farther the control
is pushed forward, the faster the mower will propel. Once
pressure is released from the control it will return to the
neutral position and the drive will be disengaged.
NOTE:
For ease of use, while gripping the controls,
simply lock your wrist and elbows and walk - the unit will
automatically adjust to your speed.
WARNING:
The operation of any lawn mower can
result in foreign objects being thrown into the eyes,
which can damage your eyes severely. Always wear
safety glasses while operating the mower, or while
performing any adjustments or repairs on it.

Using as Mulcher
For mulching grass, remove the grass catcher and allow the rear
discharge door to close the rear opening of mower. For effective
mulching, do not cut wet grass. If the grass has been allowed to
grow in excess of four inches, mulching is not recommended. Use
the grass catcher to bag clippings instead.
Using Grass Catcher
You can use the grass catcher to collect clippings while you are
operating the mower.
1. Attach grass catcher following instructions in the
“Assembly & Set-Up” section. Grass clippings will
automatically collect in bag as you run mower. Operate
mower till grass bag is full.
2. Stop engine completely by releasing the blade control.
Make sure that the unit has come to a complete stop.
3. Lift discharge door and pull grass bag up and away from
the mower to remove the bag. Dispose of the grass
clippings and reinstall the bag when complete.
NOTE:
Make sure to clean any excess grass from around
the rear opening of the mower, especially between the
transmission cover and sidewall on the left hand side and
along the bottom, to ensure tight fit of bag onto mower.
WARNING:
If you strike a foreign object, stop the
engine. Remove wire from the spark plug,
thoroughly inspect mower for any damage, and
repair damage before restarting and operating.
Extensive vibration of mower during operation is an
indication of damage. The unit should be promptly
inspected and repaired.
