MAINTENANCE FREE BATTERY
IMPORTANT: Before you attach the battery cables to the
battery, check the battery date. The battery date tells if the
battery must be charged.
1.
Check the top of the battery for the location of the battery date
(Figure 3).
2. If the battery is put into service before the battery date, the
battery cables can be attached without charging the battery.
See “How To Install The Battery Cables”.
3. If the battery is put into service after the battery date, the
battery must be charged. See “How To Charge The
Maintenance Free Battery”.
HOW TO CHARGE THE MAINTENANCE FREE BATTERY
WARNING: When you charge the battery, do not
smoke. Keep the battery away from any sparks. The
fumes from the battery acid can cause an explosion.
1. Remove the battery and battery tray.
2. Remove the protective caps from the battery terminals.
3. Use a 12 volt battery charger to charge the battery. Charge at
a rate of 6 amperes for one hour. If you do not have a battery
charger, have an authorized service center charge the battery.
4. Install the battery and battery tray. Make sure the positive (+)
terminal is on the left side.
HOW TO INSTALL THE BATTERY CABLES

HOW TO PREPARE THE ENGINE
NOTE: The engine was shipped from the factory filled with oil.
Check the level of the oil. Add oil as needed.
See the engine manufacturer’s instructions for the type of gasoline
and oil to use. Before you use the unit, read the information on
safety, operation, maintenance, and storage.
WARNING: Follow the engine manufacturer’s
instructions for the type of gasoline and oil to use.
Always use a safety gasoline container. Do not
smoke when adding gasoline to the engine. When
inside an enclosure, do not fill with gasoline. Before
you add gasoline, stop the engine. Let the engine
cool for several minutes.
IMPORTANT: This unit is equipped with an internal combustion
engine and must not be used on or near any unimproved
forest–covered, brush–covered or grass–covered land unless
the engine’s exhaust system is equipped with a spark arrester
meeting applicable local or state laws (if any). If a spark
arrester is used, it must be maintained in effective working
order by the operator.
In the State of California the above is required by law (Section
4442 of the California Public Resources Code). Other states
may have similar laws. Federal laws apply on federal lands.
See an Authorized Service Center for a spark arrester for the
muffler.
In some areas, local law requires the use of a resistor spark
plug to control the ignition signals. See an Authorized Service
Center for a resistor spark plug for the engine.
IMPORTANT! BEFORE YOU START MOWING
Check the engine oil.
Fill the fuel tank with gasoline.
Check the level of the mower housing.
Check the air pressure of the tires.
Attach the battery cables.
