EMERGENCY STOPPING

To stop the mower in an emergency:

1. Release the engine/blade control.

2. Release the wheel drive control (self-

propelled models).

3. Allow all moving parts to stop before

leaving operator’s position.

STARTING AND SHUT OFF

See Figure 6 for all Controls and Features.

NOTE: Start engine on a level surface that is

free of debris.

Manual Start

1. Check each item under Before Each

Use in the MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE

on page 15.

2. Open fuel shutoff valve (911102, 141).

3. For engines with a primer, push primer

bulb 2 or 3 times for a cold engine.

NOTE: It is unnecessary to prime or choke a

warm engine.

4. For engines with a throttle, place throttle

control in the choke position. Once the

engine has started, place throttle in the

high speed detent.

the handlebar, grasp starter handle and

pull rope slowly until it pulls harder. This

is the compression stroke. Let rope

rewind slowly.

6. Pull rope with rapid continuous full arm

stroke to start engine. Allow rope to

rewind slowly.

IMPORTANT: DO NOT let starter handle

snap against bracket.

7. Repeat steps 4 and 5 until engine starts.

(If engine does not start, see

TROUBLESHOOTING on page 23.)

Shut Off

1. Release wheel drive control and allow

unit to stop completely (self-propelled

models).

2. Release engine/blade control.

3. Set throttle control to "Stop." (911102)

Mowing Tips

Cut grass when it is dry.

Keep mower blades sharp.

Do not set cutting height too low. For tall

grass, mow twice.

Do not mow too fast.

Mow with engine at full throttle. Discharge

clippings into areas already cut.

Vary cutting pattern with each mowing.

NOTE: To prevent dirt and grass from

collecting on mower pan, avoid operating

over bare ground with only patches of grass.

Mulching Tips

For best mulching performance, cut no more

than 1 inch (2.54 cm) of grass per cutting.

WARNING: Improper operation

can lead to injury. Learn what the

controls do and how they work.

Thoroughly read and understand

entire Operator Manual.
