ASSEMBLY

NOTE: All item numbers called out in the assembly, operation, and

maintenance sections of this manual can be found on Parts List

(pages 15-18).

1. Cut and remove the nylon retaining straps (see figure 11-1).

2. With the console and handle assembly positioned as shown in

Figure 11-3, insert the shift linkage rod (Item 31) into the shift

linkage connector (Item 54).

3. To assemble the shift rod (item 31) to the shift linkage (item 54),

use the roll pin in the parts/literature bag. If you’ll notice on the shift

linkage, the hole is larger on one side than the other.

It will be easier to start the roll pin from the larger side, forcing it

through the shift rod and the hole on the other side of the shift

linkage, using a hammer or large adjustable pliers.

4. Insert one of the handle mounting bolts (Item 102) with split lock

washer (Item 6) on top of flat washer (Item 184) through the rear

handle mounting hole of the right side handle, and screw it into the

rear handle mounting hole on the right side of engine base chassis

(Item 61). Repeat this procedure for the left side using the left

handle.

5. On each side of the mower, insert one of the handle mounting

bolts (Item 102) with split lock washer (Item 6) on top of flat washer

(Item 184) through the hole in one end of the handle brace (Item

32), the front handle mounting hole of the handle and screw into the

front handle mounting hole in the engine base chassis (Figure 11-5).

6. Attach the blade lever using the clevis pin, two washers and the

pal nut from the parts bag. Align the lever to the hole on the handle

and place a washer on the pin and slide it through. Then put a

washer on the other side and gently tap the pal nut onto the end of

the pin. (See fig. 11-7)

7. Position control cables and use 2 cable ties on each handle to

secure the cables in position. The top cable tie should be 1” below

the console and the lower tie should be 12” below the console (see

figure 11-8 and 11-9).

8. Check the position of the shift rod guide (Item 69), and if

necessary, snap it in place in the shift bracket (Item 78) as shown in

Figure 11-10.

9. Put shift lever in NEUTRAL, depress the brake lever (release the

brake) and carefully pull the machine back off the pallet.

10. Fill with oil and gas to the proper level and the unit is ready to

mow. (A battery will also have to be installed.)

11. Read the operator’s manual.

OPERATION

Like all mechanical tools, reasonable care must be used when operating machine.

Inspect machine work area and machine before operating. Make sure that all operators of this

equipment are trained in general machine use and safety.

PUT OIL IN ENGINE BEFORE STARTING

STARTING

ENGINE: See engine manufacturer’s instructions for type and amount of oil and gasoline used. Engine

must be level when checking and filling oil and gasoline.

ENGINE SPEED: Controlled by throttle lever on the control console plate.

FUEL VALVE: Move fuel valve to "ON" position (when provided on engine).

CHOKE: Operated with the throttle control by moving the throttle control to the full start position.

THROTTLE: Move remote throttle control to fast position. Pull starting rope to start engine.

ELECTRIC START: Choke the engine if necessary. Pull up then push forward on the toggle switch until

engine starts, then release switch to run.

1. Select desired cutting height before starting engine.

2. Be sure drive lever or blade lever are not engaged.

3. Choke if necessary.

4. Pull back on starter rope slowly until resistance is felt. Then pull cord rapidly to start. Repeat if necessary.

Do not operate if excessive vibration occurs. If excessive vibration occurs, shut engine off immediately and check for

damaged or worn blade, loose blade jam nut, loose engine or lodged foreign objects. Note: See maintenance section

for proper blade jam nut torque specifications.

HANDLING & TRANSPORTING:

Using two people to lift machine is recommended. Lift holding the handle and front of deck. Secure in place

during transport.

Never lift the machine while the engine is running. ENGINE MUST BE OFF while handling, lifting, or

transporting the unit on or off the vehicle.

STORAGE

Never store engine indoors or in enclosed poorly ventilated areas with fuel in tank, where fuel fumes may reach

an open flame, spark or pilot light, as on a furnace, water heater, clothes dryer or other gas appliance.

If engine is to be unused for 30 days or more, prepare as follows:

Be sure engine is cool. Do not smoke. Remove all gasoline from carburetor and fuel tank to prevent gum

deposits from forming on these parts and causing possible malfunction of engine. Drain fuel outdoors, into an

approved container, away from open flame. Run engine until fuel tank is empty and engine runs out of gasoline.

NOTE: Fuel stabilizer (such as Sta-Bil) is an acceptable alternative in minimizing the formation of fuel gum deposits

during storage. Add stabilizer to gasoline in fuel tank or storage container. Always follow mix ratio found on

stabilizer container. Run engine at least 10 min. after adding stabilizer to allow it to reach the carburetor.

CAUTION: Wheels must be chocked or blocked when unit is parked on a slope.
