TRANSPORTING MOWER
. Stop mower properly.
. Place mower deck in its highest position.
. If transporting unattached from tow vehicle, then remove spark plug wire and place
where it cannot contact the spark plug.
SUGGESTED MOWING PRACTICES
. Operate mower engine at full throttle to assure the best cutting performance and
maximum material discharge.
. Allow wet grass to dry. Clumps of wet grass will collect under the mowing deck.
. Mowing should be started with tow vehicle in low gear and increased only as safe
mowing conditions permit. This speed should not exceed 5 MPH.
. The average lawn should be cut to approximately 2.5" during the cool season and
to over 3" during the hot months.
. For a healthier lawn and better aesthetics, your lawn should be mowed often and
after moderate growth.
. When cutting high or dense grass areas go slowly. Some areas may need to be
mowed twice. The second cut should be at 90 degrees to the first, if possible.
. Mowing thick or high grass. Raise rear height crank handles to .5"-.75" above
the other two handles.
. Creating a manicured lawn. Lower rear height crank handle to .25"-.5" below
front of deck. This allows grass blades to be cut twice. It also continually cuts
clippings to produce a mulching effect.
GENERAL TROUBLE SHOOTING
* The mower is not cutting level.
o Level deck, making sure the side crank-handles are equal.
o Check air pressure of all tires; make sure they are equal, and to
manufactures specifications.
o Examine blades for damage, while mower engine is not running.
. The engine will not start.
o Disengage blades, turn toggle switch to "ON" position, check battery and
all other electrical connections, and inspect spark plug and wire.
o Check for fuel in the engine.
. Engine runs poorly.
o See engine manual.
o Check throttle adjuster.
o Replace fuel, clean fuel filter and fuel line.
IF PROBLEMS PERSIST HAVE A QUALIFIED MECHANIC SERVICE THE
MOWER. NEVER ATTEMPT TO MAKE AN ADJUSTMENT THAT YOU ARE
NOT SURE IS CORRECT. DOING SO CAN CAUSE OTHER PROBLEMS.
