ADJUSTING THE CUTTING HEIGHT
Warning! Cutting height adjustments should only be performed after the engine and
blades have come to a complete stop!
It is always best to begin cutting your lawn with a higher deck height to prevent scalping your lawn.
The cutting height is adjusted with front and rear levers.
Actuate the adjustment lever and pull it to the required position. Please make sure that the lever locks
into same position.
OPERATION
GAS AND OIL FILL-UP
The engine comes shipped without oil or gasoline. Be sure to add oil and gasoline before starting the
engine.
1. Add oil before starting mower for the first time.
2. Service the engine with gasoline as instructed.
Warning: Use extreme care when handling gasoline. Gasoline is extremely flammable
and its vapors are explosive. Never fuel the machine indoors or while the engine is hot or
running. Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes and other potential sources of ignition.
Engine Oil
E
ngine oil is a key factor in deciding the engines performance. Do not apply engine oil with
additives or 2-stroke gasoline engine oil, because they haven’t enough lubrication, and may shorten
the engines service life.
Warning: Check the engine with it stopped on a level ground.
Engine oil recommended: 10W-30
As viscosity varies with regions and temperatures, SF class oil is recommended.
Check method

2. Reinsert the dipstick into the oil filling hole, and insert it to the end.
3. Check the oil level: If the oil level is too low, add the recommended engine oil and make sure the
oil level between upper level(1) and lower level(2).
4. Re-install the dipstick.
