STEP 3:  Attach Throttle Control
Lever
1.  One end of the Throttle Control Cable
(H, Figure 2-3) is attached to the engine.
Gently unwind the cable from its shipping
position and position the Throttle Control
Lever (I) on the outside of the right han-
dlebar, next to the throttle control decal.
2. Secure the Throttle Control Lever to
the handlebar with a 1/4-20 x 2 hex hd.
screw (J, Figure 2-3) and 1/4-20 hex
locknut (K).
3. Use a cable tie (L, Figure 2-3) to
secure the throttle cable (H) to the han-
dlebar at the location shown.
STEP 4:  Add Motor Oil
1.  The engine is shipped without motor
oil which MUST BE ADDED before the
engine is started.
2. See the engine manual for filling
instructions and for the correct oil speci-
fications.  Engine must be level when
checking oil level.  In ambient tempera-
tures above 40
F, use a high-quality, SAE
30 weight  detergent oil classified for Ser-
vice SF, SG or SH.  Use no special addi-
tives. Do not mix oil with fuel.
STEP 5:  Check Trimmer Head
Hardware
Check that the two bolts (M, Figure 2-4)
on the trimmer head are tightened
securely.  The trimmer head can be
rotated to make access to the hardware
easier.  
IMPORTANT: The trimmer head hardware
is designed to be permanently installed
and is not removable.  Do not attempt to
replace it with non-factory specified hard-
ware.
NOTE: The two holes (one is covered with
a plastic plug) on the top, front end of the
mower deck are access holes that allow
certain parts to be serviced.
