Shift Lever

The shift lever sets the direction and speed of the unit. 

R = reverse

N = neutral

1 = the slowest forward speed

5 = the fastest forward speed.

PTO Clutch

Pull the PTO (power take off) switch On (1) to 
engage the mower blades. Push the PTO 
switch Off (2) to disengage the mower 
blades.

Recoil Starter Handle

Pull the recoil starter handle to start the engine.

FILL FUEL TANK

Using Proper Fuel

Use regular grade unleaded fuel with an octane rating of 87 
octane or higher. Fuel blends containing up to 10% ethanol 
or up to 15% MTBE reformulated fuel are acceptable. Do not 
use fuel or additives containing methanol as engine damage 
can occur.

Always use fresh, clean fuel that is purchased in a quantity 
that can be used within approximately 30 days, or add fuel 
stabilizer.

Fuel is blended to give best seasonal performance. To avoid 
engine performance problems such as hard starting or vapor 
lock, use in-season fuel. Use fuel during warm weather that 
was purchased during that season, and use fuel during cold 
weather that was purchased during that season.

Fuel can become stale in machines with engines that are 
used seasonally or infrequently during a season. Stale fuel 
can produce varnish and plug carburetor components which 
can affect engine performance.

Keep fuel storage container tightly covered and in a cool 
area out of direct sunlight. Fuel can break down and 
degrade if not sealed properly or exposed to sun and heat.

Condensation may collect in the fuel tank because of a 
variety of operating or environmental conditions and, over 
time, may affect your machine’s operation. Fill fuel tank at 
the end of daily use and store fuel in plastic containers to 
reduce condensation.

For best year-round performance and fuel-handling, add 
stabilizer to fuel immediately after fuel purchase. Such 
practice helps prevent engine performance problems and 
allows fuel storage in the machine all year without draining.

To add fuel to the fuel tank:

1. Put the unit in an open area.

2. Stop the engine.

3. Allow engine to cool.

4. Clean the fuel cap and the area around the fuel cap to 

prevent dirt from entering the fuel tank.

5. Remove the cap from the fuel tank.

6. Fill the fuel tank. Be careful not to spill.

7. Install the cap on the fuel tank and tighten.

8. Clean up any spilled fuel before starting the engine.

TO STOP IN AN EMERGENCY

1. Release operator presence control(s).

2. Turn the ignition key Off.

3. Allow engine to stop completely.

4. Lock steering levers in neutral. 

STARTING AND SHUT OFF

Before Each Use

Check each item in Each Use in the Maintenance Schedule.

NOTE: The engine will not start unless the shift lever is in 
neutral, and the Power Take Off (PTO) is Off. 

Recoil Start 

1. Lock the steering lever latches in neutral.

2. Put the shift lever in neutral.

3. Move PTO switch to Off.

4. Set throttle to the proper starting position. If the engine 

is cold, choke the engine.

5. Turn ignition switch to On.

6. Grasp recoil starter handle and pull rope out slowly 

until it pulls harder. This is the compression stroke.

WARNING: Fuel is highly flammable and its 
vapors are explosive. Handle with care. Use an 
approved fuel container.

NO smoking, NO sparks, NO flames. ALWAYS 
allow engine to cool before servicing.

NEVER fill fuel tank when engine is running or 
hot from operation.

NEVER fill or drain fuel tank indoors.

Replace fuel cap securely and clean up spilled 
fuel.
