Service

Safe Handling Of Gasoline:

To avoid personal injury or property damage use extreme 
care in handling gasoline. Gasoline is extremely flammable 
and the vapors are explosive. Serious personal injury can 
occur when gasoline is spilled on yourself or your clothes, 
which can ignite. Wash your skin and change clothes 
immediately.
Use only an approved gasoline container.
Never fill containers inside a vehicle or on a truck or trailer 
bed with a plastic liner. Always place containers on the 
ground away from your vehicle before filling.
Remove gas-powered equipment from the truck or 
trailer and refuel it on the ground. If this is not possible, 
then refuel such equipment on a trailer with a portable 
container, rather than from a gasoline dispenser nozzle.
Keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of the fuel tank or 
container opening at all times until fueling is complete. Do 
not use a nozzle lock-open device.
Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes and other sources  
of ignition.
Never fuel machine indoors because flammable vapors will 
accumulate in the area.
Never remove gas cap or add fuel while engine is hot or 
running.  Allow engine to cool at least two minutes before 
refueling.
Never over fill fuel tank. Fill tank to no more than 1 inch 
below bottom of filler neck to provide for fuel expansion.
Replace gasoline cap and tighten securely.
If gasoline is spilled, wipe it off the engine and equipment. 
Move machine to another area. Wait 5 minutes before 
starting engine.
Never store the machine or fuel container near an open 
flame, spark or pilot light as on a water heater, space 
heater, furnace, clothes dryer or other gas appliances. 
To reduce fire hazard, keep machine free of grass, leaves, 
or other debris build-up. Clean up oil or fuel spillage and 
remove any fuel soaked debris. 
Allow machine to cool at least 5 minutes before storing.

General Service:

Never run an engine indoors or in a poorly ventilated area. 
Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide, an odorless 
and deadly gas.
Before cleaning, repairing, or inspecting, make certain the 
blade and all moving parts have stopped. Disconnect the 
spark plug wire and ground against the engine to prevent 
unintended starting.

Check the blade and engine mounting bolts at frequent 
intervals for proper tightness. Also, visually inspect blade 
for damage (e.g., bent, cracked, worn) Replace blade with 
the original equipment manufacture’s (O.E.M.) blade only, 
listed in this manual. “Use of parts which do not meet the 
original equipment specifications may lead to improper 
performance and compromise safety!”  
Mower blades are sharp and can cut. Wrap the blade or 
wear gloves, and use extra caution when servicing them.
Keep all nuts, bolts, and screws tight to be sure the 
equipment is in safe working condition.
Never tamper with safety devices. Check their proper 
operation regularly.
After striking a foreign object, stop the engine, disconnect 
the spark plug wire and ground against the engine. 
Thoroughly inspect the mower for any damage. Repair the 
damage before starting and operating the mower.
Never attempt to make a wheel or cutting height 
adjustment while the engine is running.
Grass catcher components, discharge cover, and trail shield 
are subject to wear and damage which could expose 
moving parts or allow objects to be thrown. For safety 
protection, frequently check components and replace 
immediately with original equipment manufacturer’s 
(O.E.M.) parts only, listed in this manual. “Use of parts 
which do not meet the original equipment specifications 
may lead to improper performance and compromise 
safety!”
Do not change the engine’s governor setting or over-speed 
the engine. The governor controls the maximum safe 
operating speed of the engine. 
Check fuel line, tank, cap, and fittings frequently for cracks 
or leaks. Replace if necessary.
Do not crank engine with spark plug removed.
Maintain or replace safety and instruction labels, as 
necessary.
Observe proper disposal laws and regulations. Improper 
disposal of fluids and materials can harm the environment.

Do not modify engine

To avoid serious injury or death, do not modify engine in any 
way. Tampering with the governor setting can lead to a runaway 
engine and cause it to operate at unsafe speeds. Never tamper 
with factory setting of engine governor.

Notice Regarding Emissions

Engines which are certified to comply with California and federal 
EPA emission regulations for SORE (Small Off Road Equipment) 
are certified to operate on regular unleaded gasoline, and 
may include the following emission control systems: Engine 
Modification (EM) and Three Way Catalyst (TWC) if so equipped.
