•

Attach spark plug wire to spark plug. Make certain 
the metal cap on the end of the spark plug wire 
(inside the rubber boot) is fastened securely over 
the metal tip on the spark plug.

•

Push primer three times. Wait about two seconds 

between each push. In cold weather around 55

o

 F 

or below, prime five times. Do not prime to restart a 
warm engine after a short shutdown.

•

Standing behind the mower, depress the blade 
control handle and hold it against the upper handle.

•

Grasp starter handle and pull rope out slowly until 
engine reaches the start of compression cycle 
(rope will pull slightly harder at this point). Let the 
rope rewind slowly. Pull rope with a rapid, 
continuous, full arm stroke. Keeping a firm grip on 
the starter handle, let the rope rewind slowly.

Be sure the lawn is clear of stones, sticks, 

wire, or other objects which could damage the lawn 
mower or the engine. Such objects could be accidently 
thrown by the mower in any direction and cause serious 
personal injury to the operator and others.

1.

For best results, do not cut wet grass.

2.

New grass, thick grass, or wet grass may require a 

narrower cut.

3.

For a healthier lawn, never cut off more than one-
third of the total length of the grass. 

4.

Your lawn should be cut in the fall as long as there 
is growth. 

1.

For effective mulching, do not cut wet grass. 

2.

Adjust ground speed according to the condition of 
the lawn.

Each wheel has a height adjustment lever. When this 
lever is moved from one slot to another, the height of 
cut will be changed. 

•

Simply depress the lever towards the wheel and 
slide the lever assembly to desired position for a 
change in cutting height. See Figure 9.

 All wheels must be placed in the same 

relative position. For rough or uneven lawns, move the 
height adjustment lever to a higher position. This will 
help stop scalping of the grass.

Be sure no one other than the 

operator is standing near the lawn mower while 
starting engine or operating mower. 

Never run engine indoors or in 

enclosed, poorly ventilated areas. Engine 
exhaust contains carbon monoxide, an 
odorless and deadly gas. 

Keep hands, feet, hair and 

loose clothing away from any moving parts on 
engine and lawn mower. 

If you strike a foreign object, 

stop the engine. Remove wire from the spark 
plug, thoroughly inspect the mower for any 
damage, and repair the damage before 
restarting and operating the mower. Extensive 
vibration of the mower during operation is an 
indication of damage. The unit should be 
promptly inspected and repaired.

Always stop engine, disconnect 

spark plug, and ground against engine before 
performing adjustments.
