starter handle slowly until a slight resistance is felt, then pull quickly to start the engine.
4. Return cord gently into the recoil starter. Never allow the cord to snap back.
5. If engine fails to start, repeat step 3.
NOTE: After repeated failed attempts to start the engine, please consult the troubleshooting guide
before attempting again. If problems persist, please call customer service.
Don’t allow the starter grip to snap back against the engine. Return it gently to prevent damage to the
starter.
STOP THE ENGINE
Release the engine start/stop control to stop the engine.
MOWING
The engine throttle on your mower has been preset to provide optimum bagging and mulching
performance for years to come.
Only use a sharp blade that is in good condition. This will prevent the grass blades from becoming
frayed and the lawn from turning yellow.
Mow in straight lines for a nice, clean look. The swaths should overlap each other by a few inches in
order to avoid stripes.
It’s important to keep the underside of the mower deck clean and remove grass build-up. This buildup
will decrease mulching quality, and make it harder for the equipment to bag the grass.
Always mow along inclines (not up and down). You can prevent the lawn mower from slipping down
by holding a position at an angle upwards. Select the cutting height according to the length of the
grass. If necessary, mow a number of times so that you never cut more than 2 inches of grass in one
go.
Turn off the engine before doing any checks on the blade. Keep in mind that the blade continues to
rotate for a few seconds after the engine has been turned off. Never attempt to manually stop the blade.
Regularly check to see if the blade is securely attached, is in good condition and is sharp. If the
contrary is the case, sharpen the blade or replace it. In the event that the blade strikes an object,
immediately turn off the lawn mower and wait for the blade to come to a complete stop. Then inspect
the condition of the blade and the blade mount. Replace any parts that are damaged.
USING AS SIDE DISCHARGE
You should fit the mulching adapter in order to use the side discharge.
1. On the side of the mower, lift the side discharge cover.
2. Slide two hooks of side discharge chute under hinge pin on the side discharge cover. Lower the
side discharge cover.
Caution: Do not remove side discharge cover at any time.
