ENGLISH

Never use stale or contaminated gasoline or an oil/gasoline mixture. 
Avoid getting dirt or water in the fuel tank.

NOTICE

Fuel can damage paint and plastic. Be careful not to spill fuel when 
filling your fuel tank. Damage caused by spilled fuel is not covered 
under warranty.

Remove the tank cap [1] and 
check the fuel level. Refill the tank 
if the fuel level is low. Refuel 
carefully to avoid spilling fuel. Do 
not overfill; there should be no fuel 
in the filler neck [2].

After refueling, tighten the fuel tank 
cap securely.

Move the mower at least 3 meters 
away from the fueling source and site before starting the engine.

Air Cleaner Inspection 

Remove cover [1]. Make sure the filter [2] is clean and in good 
condition. A dirty air filter will restrict air flow to the carburetor, 
reducing engine performance. Refer to page 15 for air cleaner 
service.

Handlebar Height Adjustment

Handlebar [4] height can be adjusted to three positions: high [1], 
middle [2], and low [3].

1. Loosen the handlebar locking knobs [5].

2. Spread the lower ends of the handlebar to release the locating 

pins [6].

3. Move the handlebar up or down, so the locating pins engage other 

holes on the handlebar mounting brackets.

4. Tighten the handlebar locking knobs securely.

Grass Bag

A lawn mower works like a vacuum cleaner; it blows air through the 
bag, which traps the grass clippings. Always empty the grass bag 
before it becomes filled to the limit of its capacity. Bagging 
performance will diminish after the bag becomes about 90% filled. 
Also, the bag is easier to empty when it is not packed full.

Inspection

During normal use, the grass bag material is subject to deterioration 
and wear.

NOTICE

Frequently inspect the grass bag for tears, holes, and excessive wear. 
Check for necessary replacement. Make sure the new bag meets the 
original specifications.

If the grass bag needs replacement, you can remove and install a bag 
yourself (page 18).

Installation

1. Raise the discharge 

guard [1], and use 
the grass bag handle 
[3] to hook the grass 
bag [2] onto the 
mower deck as 
shown.

2. Release the 

discharge guard to 
secure the grass 
bag.

Removal

1. Raise the discharge 

guard, grasp the 
grass bag handle, 
and remove the 
grass bag.

2. Release the 

discharge guard.

3. When the grass bag 

is clear of the 
discharge guard, you can lift it through the handlebar opening, or 
you can remove it to the rear of the mower below the handlebar.

 WARNING

Gasoline is highly flammable and explosive.

You can be burned or seriously injured when handling fuel.

• Stop the engine and keep heat, sparks, and flame away.
• Handle fuel only outdoors.
• Wipe up spills immediately.
