GASOLINE MODELS: START-
ING/ STOPPING THE ENGINE
1. Be sure the parking brake is set and the reel drive
switch is in DISENGAGE.
Note: After the hand brake is released, run the
vehicle in the opposite direction of resis-
tance to fully release the brake.
2. Remove your foot from the traction pedal and make
sure the pedal is in the neutral position.
3. Move the choke lever to the ON position—when
starting a cold engine—and the throttle lever to the
half-throttle position.
4. Insert the key into the ignition switch and turn it
clockwise to start the engine. Release the key
when the engine starts. Regulate the choke to keep
the engine running smoothly.
IMPORTANT To prevent overheating the starter
motor, do not engage the starter longer than 10
seconds. After 10 seconds of continuous crank-
ing, wait 60 seconds before engaging the starter
motor again.
5. When starting the engine for the first time, or after
an engine overhaul, operate the machine in forward
and reverse for one to two minutes. Also operate
the lift lever and the reel drive switch to be sure all
parts operate correctly.
Turn the steering wheel to the left and right to
check steering response. Then shut the engine off
and check for oil leaks, loose parts and any other
noticeable malfunctions.
6. To stop the engine, move the throttle control down-
ward to IDLE, move the reel drive switch to DIS-
ENGAGE and turn the ignition key to OFF.
Remove the key from the switch and install the
switch cover to prevent accidental starting.
7. Close the fuel shut-off valves before storing the
machine.

pedal is depressed or the cutting unit clutch switch
is engaged, with the operator off the seat, the
engine should stop. Correct the problem if the
safety switches are not operating correctly.

safety.
