Setting the cutting height (Fig. L)
WARNING!
The blade can cause serious injury. Before adjusting the mower height, stop the
engine and wait for the mower blade to come to a complete stop.
1. Pull the lever towards the wheel, then move it forward or backward to adjust the cutting
height.
2. Move it to any one of the 7 positions for the desired cutting height.
3. Return the lever into the securing plate.
NOTE:
Never use the lowest cutting height for the first cut of the season or in drought
conditions. Only about one third of the grass height should be cut at this time.
Starting the engine
WARNING!
Do not operate the machine in enclosed or poorly-ventilated areas, as the exhaust
gas contains toxic substances. Keep hands, feet, hair and clothing away from
all the moving parts of the machine. The exhaust and other parts of the machine
will become hot during use. Make sure that the blade is securely fastened before
starting the engine.
1. When starting a cold engine, press down the primer fully 3-5 times.
(Fig. M)
Pressing the primer button too many times could cause the engine to flood.
NOTE:
When starting a warm engine, the primer does not need to be used. If the engine
stops due to a lack of petrol, refill and press down the primer 3-5 times.
2. Start/stop bar activation
Pull the start/stop bar towards you.
(Fig. N)
3. Pull cord handle
With the right hand, slowly but firmly pull the starter handle and rope from the pull cord
guide until you feel resistance, then pull briskly. If the engine fails to start after three
pulls, repeat the start process. When the engine starts, return the starter rope to the rope
guide gently.
To stop, release stop/start bar
Failure to start
If the engine won’t start after you have operated the starter several times, the engine may be
flooded with excess fuel.
Use the following procedure to clean and start a flooded engine:
A. Release the stop/start bar.
B. Remove the spark plug, dry it, and then reinstall it.
Install the spark plug carefully by hand, to avoid cross-threading. After the plug is seated,
tighten it 1/8 to 1/4 turns with the socket spanner to compress the washer.
C. Pull the stop/start bar towards the upper handle.
D. Operate the starter, as described above.
