MOWING TIPS
•
The cutting deck should be properly
leveled for best mowing performance.
See “TO LEVEL DECK” in the Service
and Adjustment section of this manual.
•
The left hand side of the deck should be
used for trimming.
•
Drive so that clippings are discharged
onto the area that has been cut. Have
the cut area to the right of the mower.
This will result in more even distribution
of clippings and a more uniform cut.
•
If grass is extremely tall, it should be
mowed twice to reduce load and possible
fire hazard from dried clippings. Make
first cut relatively high; second to desired
height.
•
Do not mow grass when it is wet. Wet
grass will plug the deck and leave
undesirable clumps. Allow grass to dry
before mowing.
NOTE:
Before starting, read the warm and cold
starting procedures below.
•
Insert key into the ignition and turn the
key clockwise to “START” position and
release the key as soon the engine
starts. Do not run the starter
continuously for more than 15 seconds
per minute. If the engine does not start
after several attempts, pull the choke
cable knob up, wait a few minutes and
try again. If the engine still does not
start, push the choke cable knob down
and retry.
COLD WEATHER STARTING (50° F and below)
•
When the engine starts, slowly pull the
throttle control back until the engine
begins to run smoothly. Continue to pull
back on the throttle control in small steps
allowing the engine to accept small
changes in speed and load, until the
throttle control is completely in the fast
position. If the engine starts to run
roughly, pull the choke cable knob up to
choke the engine for a few seconds.
Then continue to push the throttle control
back slowly to the fast position. This
may require an engine warm up period
for several seconds to several minutes,
depending on the temperature.
•
Always operate engine at full throttle
when mowing
to assure better mowing
performance and proper discharge of
material. Regulate ground speed by
going slow enough to allow proper deck
cutting performance as well as the
quality of cut desired. When operating
attachments, select a ground speed that
will suit the terrain and give best
performance of the attachment being
used.
OPERATION
WARM WEATHER STARTING
(50° F and above)
•
When the engine starts, slowly pull the
throttle control back until the engine
begins to run smoothly. If the engine
starts to run roughly, pull the choke cable
up to choke the engine for a few
seconds. Then continue to push the
throttle control back to the fast position.
•
The PTO switch and ground drive can
now be used. If the engine does not
accept the load, restart the engine and
allow it to warm up for one minute using
the choke as described above.
