OPERATION
MOWING PRECAUTIONS
Before operating the mower for the first time, please review
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION (page 4) and the previous
chapter, BEFORE OPERATION (page 12). Even if you have operated
other mowers, take time to become familiar with how this mower works
and practice in a safe area until you build up your skills. For your
safety, avoid starting or operating the engine in an enclosed area such
as a garage. Your mower’s exhaust contains poisonous carbon
monoxide gas which can collect rapidly in an enclosed area and cause
illness or death.
STARTING THE ENGINE
Before starting, always release
drive clutch lever, so the mower will
not move forward when you
operate the starter.
1. Turn the fuel valve to the ON
position.
2. Move the throttle lever to the
proper starting position.
COLD ENGINE:
Move the throttle lever to the
CHOKE position.
