6. Allow the engine to warm for about five minutes before
operating the unit.
NOTE: Warming time will vary depending on the ambient
temperature. For temperatures below 32° F (0° C), allow ten
or more minutes for the unit to warm.
7. Use the throttle to increase or decrease engine speed.

disengage the PTO.
2. Move the throttle to the Slow position.
3. Turn the ignition key to the Off position.
Cold Weather Starting
NOTE: When starting in cold weather (below -5° C (23° F)),
do not run the starter more than 10 seconds at a time. If the
engine does not start after 10 seconds allow the starter to
rest 30 seconds before trying again.
Stopping The Engine
Move the control levers to the park position, idle the engine
a few moments and turn the ignition switch to the "Off"
position. Remove the key.
MOWING
Operate the unit only when seated in the operator’s position.
1. Start the engine. Let the engine idle until it is running
smoothly.
2. Bring the steering control levers to the neutral position.
3. Set the throttle to the 3/4 fast position.
4. Turn on the PTO to engage the mower.
IMPORTANT: Never engage the PTO when the mower is
plugged with grass or other material. This may damage the
clutch.
5. Move the throttle to the fast position.
6. Move the steering levers forward to obtain a slow
ground speed.
7. To disengage the mower, move the PTO switch to the
OFF position.
8. When you know how to operate the unit, select a
speed appropriate to your mowing conditions.
Anti-Scalp Wheels
1. Raise the mower by pushing down on the deck lift lever
and lock into transport position.
2. Place the steering control levers in the park position.
3. Set the anti-scalp adjustment to desired height of cut.
4. To adjust the anti-scalp rollers, remove the 5/8-11 x
4.25" bolts and reinstall the bolts in the appropriate
hole for the desired height of cut (see figure 9).
5. Depress the deck lift lever and pull back on the deck
transport lock lever and lower the deck into the cut
position.
NOTE: The anti-scalp wheels should always be at least
1/4–1/2” (6mm - 13mm) off the ground. They are designed to
keep the deck from scalping the ground in uneven terrain,
they are not to contact the ground all of the time.
Side-Discharge Mowers
The mower has a pinned discharge shield that discharges
the clippings out of the side of the deck and onto the ground.
Uneven Terrain
CAUTION: ALWAYS remove the ignition key
when the unit is not in use.
WARNING: To avoid damage to the mower,
re-torque all fastening hardware, including
blade and spindle pulley retaining nuts, after
the first hour of mowing operation.
DANGER: Without the discharge shield or a
complete grass collector installed, you and
others are exposed to rotating mower blades
and thrown debris. Contact with the mower
blades or flying debris could cause severe injury
or death.
The discharge deflector routes material down
toward the ground. Never remove the discharge
shield or operate the mower with a damaged
discharge deflector.
Never put your hands or feet under the mower.
Do not try to clear the mower discharge area or
mower blades without first turning the mower
PTO to off, turning the ignition key to off,
removing the key and disconnecting the battery
cable.
WARNING: To avoid the loss of control and to
prevent overturning the mower, always across
slopes, never up and down.
Pass diagonally through sharp dips. Avoid sharp
drop offs completely to prevent the mower from
becoming hung up.
Keep the power unit steering control levers
forward when going downhill.
