Figure 16
Adjusting Carburetor
If the engine is running rough, minor adjustments to the carburetor may be required to compensate for
differences in fuel, temperature, altitude and load.
NOTE: A dirty air cleaner may cause an engine to run rough too. So make sure that the air cleaner is clean
and attached to the carburetor before deciding to adjust the carburetor.
To adjust the carburetor, please follow the recommendations and instructions on carburetor adjustment in the
engine manual.
WARNING: If any adjustments are made to the engine (e.g. carburetor) while the engine is running,
keep clear of all moving parts. Be careful of heated surfaces like the muffler.
SECTION 11: LUBRICATION
WARNING:
Always stop engine and disconnect spark plug wire before cleaning, lubricating or
performing any kind of work on your lawn mower.
For complete lubrication chart, see Figure 17.
Wheels: The wheels require no lubrication. However, if the wheels are removed for any reason, lubricate the
surface of the axle bolt and the inner surface of the wheel with light oil or engine oil.
Chute Deflector: Lubricate the torsion spring and the pivot point on each end of the chute deflector using a
light oil. This will prevent rusting and ensure that the deflector, which is a safety device, can always work
properly.
Engine: Follow the engine manual instructions and recommended schedule for lubricating engine
components.
Pivot Points: Lubricate the pivot points on the blade control handle, brake cable and the cutting height
adjustment lever at least once a season with light oil. The blade control handle must operate freely in both
directions. The cutting height adjustment lever should be able to move easily.
