TO STARTENGINE
Push Primer two (2) or three (3) times. Wait about
two (2) seconds between each push. In coid
weather (50°F/t O°C or below) push five (5)times.
NOTE: Do not use primer to restart a warm engine
after a short shutdown.
* Push Engine Speed Control Lever forward to
HIGH position°
* Hold Operator Presence Control Bar down to the
Handle and pull Starter Handle quickly. DO NOT
allow Starter Rope to snap back.
* To STOP engine, release Operator Presence Con-
trol Bar.
NOTE: In cooler weather it may be necessary to
repeat priming steps. In warmer weather over prim-
ing may cause flooding and engine will not start, if
you do flood engine wait a few minutes before at-
tempting to start and DO NOT repeat priming steps.
MOWINGTIPS
Under certain conditions, such as very tail grass,
it may be necessary to raise the height of cut to
reduce pushing effort and to keep from
overloading the engine and leaving clumps of
grass clippings.
* For extremely heavy cutting, reduce the width of
cut and raise the rear of the lawn mower hous-
ing one (1) wheel adjuster setting higher than the
front for better discharge of grass.
, For better grass bagging and most cutting con-
ditions, the engine speed should be set in the
"HIGH" (FAST) position.
* When using a rear discharge lawn mower in
moist, heavy grass, clumps of cut grass may not
enter the grass catcher° Reduce ground speed
(pushing speed) and/or run the lawn mower over
the area a second time.
o Ifatrail of grass clippings is left on the right side
of a rear discharge lawn mower, mow in a
clockwise direction with a small overlap to col-
lect the clippings on the next pass.
* Pores in cloth grass catchers can become filled
with dirt and dust with use and catchers will col-
lect less grass. To prevent this, regularly hose cat-
cher off with water and let dry before using.
* Keep top of engine around starter clear and clean
of grass clippings and chaff. This will help engine
air flow and extend engine life.
