PROTECTION FOR CHILDREN
Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not
alert to the presence of children. Children are often
attracted to the machine and the mowing activity.
Never assume that children will remain where you
last saw them.
1. KEEP children out of the mowing area and
under the watchful care of a responsible adult.
2. DO NOT allow children in yard when machine is
operated and turn machine OFF if anyone
enters the area.
3. DO NOT allow pre-teenage children to operate
machine.
4. ALLOW only responsible adults & teenagers
with mature judgment under close adult
supervision to operate machine.
5. DO NOT pull mower backwards unless
absolutely necessary. LOOK and SEE behind
and down for children, pets and hazards before
and while backing.
6. USE EXTRA CARE when approaching blind
corners, shrubs, trees, or other objects that may
obscure vision.
SLOPE OPERATION
1. Slopes are a major factor related to slip and fall
accidents, which can result in severe injury. All
slopes require extra caution. If you feel uneasy
on a slope, DO NOT mow it.
2. Mow across slopes, never up-and-down.
Exercise extreme CAUTION when changing
directions on slopes. DO NOT mow steep
slopes or other areas where stability or traction
is in doubt.
3. Use extra care with crass catchers or other
attachments; these affect the handling and the
stability of the machine.
PREPARATION
1. Read, understand, and follow instructions and
warnings in this manual and on the mower,
engine and attachments. Know the controls and
the proper use of the mower before starting.
2. Only mature, responsible persons shall operate
the machine and only after proper instruction.
PREPARATION
(Continued From Previous Column)
3. Data indicates that operators age 60 and above,
are involved in a large percentage of mower-
related injuries. These operators should
evaluate their ability to operate the mower
safely enough to protect themselves and others
from serious injury.
4. Handle fuel with extra care. Fuels are flammable
and vapors are explosive. Use only an approved
fuel container. DO NOT remove fuel cap or add
fuel with engine running. Add fuel outdoors
only with engine stopped and cool. Clean
spilled fuel and oil from machine. DO NOT
smoke.
5. Check the area to be mowed and remove all
objects such as toys, wire, rocks, limbs and
other objects that could cause injury if thrown
by blade or interfere with mowing. Also note the
location of holes, stumps, and other possible
hazards.
6. Keep people and pets out of the mowing area.
Immediately, STOP Blade, Stop engine and Stop
mower if anyone enters the area.

modified with an open area. This allows the blade to
have more direct contact with the grass and allows
more air flow into deck chamber. The adjustable baffle
should be secured in the lowest position when using a
grass bag. The baffle should be secured in the highest
position when mulching grass.
NOTE: Under certain conditions, when mulching, some
grass may blow out from under front of baffle. This is
normal but, the amount of grass blowing out can be
reduced. Lower baffle slightly to reduce the amount of
grass blow out.
1. Stop engine.
2. Loosen wing nuts that secure front deck baffle.
See Figure 2.8.
3. Lower the adjustable baffle to the lowest position
when using a grass bag. Raise the baffle to its

4.4 BELT SERVICE
On self-propelled mowers, the engine belt transmits
power from engine to drive disc. The drive disc powers
the poly-v belt which engages the transmission that
powers the rear wheels. Should these belts become
worn, they could cause slippage which would impair
mower performance. The condition of the engine belt
and poly-v belt should be checked after every 25 hours
of mower operation.

g that dirt will
quickly ruin an engine,
manufacturers equip their
engines with extremely
efficient air cleaners to
the harmful di_.
As the dirt particles are stopped,
they build up and begin to clog
the outside of the filter. This
reduces the amount of air
available to the engine and causes
an over-rich fuel mixture which re-

Damage caused by a poorly serviced air
cleaner Is not covered under the engine
warranties. So, save yourself unnecessary
expenses and undue aggravation by keeping
the air cleaner properly serviced at the Intervals
specified In the engine owner's manual.
It doesn't like long to service an air cleaner.
Follow the specific instructions In the engine
owner's manual for the type filter used. Pre-
vent dirt from falling Into the carburetor Intake
when servicing your air cleaner. Make sure
components are Installed In correct sequence
after servicing to prevent unfiltered air from

the off-season.
An engine must also have proper lubrication.
All engines use some oil. On 4-cycle engines,
CHECK OIL LEVEL BEFORE EACH START-UP.
Wipe area clean around the oll check plug or
dipstick opening to keep dirt from falling into
the engine when checking the oil. Always
check with the machine on a level surface.
On engines with dipstick, keep the level up to,
but not over, the FULL mark. When adding o11,
allow time for all of the oll to flow down the fill
tube to prevent a false full reading when the
level could actually be low and result In engine
damage.
23
PRIMARY MAINTENANCE
On 4-cyle engines with an oil level plug,
don't be fooled into thinking the engine has
sufficient lubricaUng oii if you can see "some"
oil in the opening - the level should always be
brought u ng at the
top of the fill hole.
On 2-cycle engines, lubrication must be
provided by an exact mixture of gasoline
and 2-cycle air-cooled engine oil A 2-cycle
engine that Is mistakenly run on straight
gasoline will be ruined in less than 5
minutesl If you keep straight gasoline In
addition to pre-mixed 2-cycle engine fuel,
be sure the containers are clearly marked
to avoid mix-up.
Snapper 2-cycle engines require a 32 to 1
mixture of gasoline and BIA certified TC-W
oil such as Snapper's 2-cycle engine oil
Many of the 2-cycle engine oils on the
market today make fantastic claims, but for
the best performance and long engine life,
always usa Snapper 2-cycle oil Pre-mlx
the fuel and always shake the container
before filling the tank.
Change oil at regular Intervals using a a high
quality oil such as Snapper's small engine
formulated 4-cycle engine olI. Refer to the
engine owner's manual for oil details.
