•
Be aware of a potential fire hazard in very dry
conditions, follow all local fire warnings, and keep
the machine free of dry grass and leaf debris.
•
Alternate the mowing direction. This helps
disperse the clippings over the lawn for even
fertilization.
•
If the finished lawn appearance is unsatisfactory,
try 1 or more of the following:
– Replace the blades or have them sharpened.
– Walk at a slower pace while mowing.
– Raise the cutting height on your machine.
– Cut the grass more frequently.
– Overlap cutting swaths instead of cutting a full
swath with each pass.
Cutting Leaves
•
After cutting the lawn, ensure that half of the lawn
shows through the cut leaf cover. You may need
to make more than a single pass over the leaves.
•
If there are more than 13 cm (5 inches) of leaves
on the lawn, mow at a higher cutting height and
then again at the desired cutting height.
•
Slow down your mowing speed if the machine
does not cut the leaves finely enough.

General Safety
•
Clean grass and debris from the machine to help
prevent fires. Clean up oil or fuel spills.
•
Allow the engine to cool before storing the machine
in any enclosure.
•
Never store the machine or fuel container where
there is an open flame, spark, or pilot light, such
as on a water heater or on other appliances.
Hauling Safety

Remove the ignition key (if equipped) before
loading the machine for hauling.

Secure the machine from rolling.
Cleaning under the Machine
Service Interval: Before each use or daily
1. Move the machine to a level surface.
2. Shut off the engine and wait for all moving parts
to stop before leaving the operating position.
3. Lower the machine to its lowest cutting-height
setting. Refer to
Adjusting the Cutting Height
(page 11) .
4. Attach a hose to the washout fitting, and turn the
water on high (
Figure 30 ).
Note:
Spread petroleum jelly on the washout
fitting O-ring to make the coupling slide on
easier and protect the O-ring.

the blades turning.
6. Disengage the blade-control lever, shut off the
engine, and wait for all moving parts to stop.
7. Shut off the water and remove the coupling from
the washout fitting.
Note:
If the machine is not clean after a single
washing, soak it and let it stand for 30 minutes.
Then repeat the process.
8. Run the machine again and engage the blades
for 1 to 3 minutes to remove the excess water.
WARNING
A broken or missing washout fitting could
expose you and others to thrown objects or
blade contact. Contact with a blade or thrown
debris can cause injury or death.
• Replace a broken or missing washout
fitting immediately, before using the
machine again.
• Never put your hands or feet under the
machine or through openings in the
machine.
