Snapper 10 Series User Manual

BATTERY STORAGE
Recharge the battery once each month during the
off season storage period. To prevent damage due to
exposed celis, remove the wet celi type battery
before standing the mower on end during storage.
Store the battery in a vented area preferabiy where
temperatures remain above 32 degrees Fahrenheit,
but not too warm. DO NOT store a battery on a con¬
crete fioor.
MOWING HINTS
□ Before starting to mow, move the ENGINE CON¬
TROL lever forward (into the FAST position). Set
the TRANSMISSION SHIFT lever in a mid speed set¬
ting and the CUTTING HEIGHT lever in a raised
position.
Then, experiment and adjust cutting height and for¬
ward speed until the mower is functioning best for
your particular conditions.
STORAGE PROCEDURE
If desired, stand the mower on end during off-season
storage provided the following steps are taken
beforehand:
1. Remove wet cell type battery (see BATTERY
STORAGE).
2. Thoroughly clean surfaces and lubricate machine
(See LUBRICATION SERVICES).
3. Drain fuel from tank and close vent on the fuel
filler cap.
4. Service engine for storage as described in the
engine owner’s manual.
After storing on end, the following steps are required
to prepare the engine for operation again. Turn the
IGNITION SWITCH off and pull the ROPE START
HANDLE slowly. If excessive resistance is felt or if
the engine refuses to rotate, remove the spark plug
and pull handle again to clear cylinder of oil. Clean
and reinstall the spark plug.
NOTE: The engine is designed to be run at "FULL
THROTTLE " while the grass is being cut.
□ If the ground is dry and dusty, and grass is sparse,
be aware that the vacuum action of the blade will
create a dust storm! Also, when fertilizing the lawn
with a dry-type fertilizer, don’t use the mower until
after there has been a shower or the lawn has been
sprinkled.
□ Changing your mowing pattern from time to time
creates a smoother cut lawn. Finely chopped clipp¬
ings add nutrients to the soil to promote grass
growth. However, if accumulation becomes too
heavy, matting develops and thatch is formed which
prevents breathing, holds excessive moisture, and
can destroy root structure.
□ The SNAPPER Thatcherizer (Thatcherizer Kit
#6-0948) is the answer to this problem. It will prevent
such destruction from occuring by dislodging ex¬
cessive thatch, thus enabling you to vacuum, sweep,
or rake and remove any harmful accumulation as
well as expose twigs and any other debris.
