CAUTION

Operating Engine

After engine has started, let it warm up several seconds

to several minutes, depending on outside temperature.

For maximum performance and life, operate engine

with speed control in FAST, if equipped.

•Do not tip engine or equipment at angle which

causes gasoline to spill.

Periodically remove grass buildup under mower deck.

See Maintenance section.

Engines give off carbon monoxide,

an odorless, colorless, poison

gas.

Breathing carbon monoxide can

cause nausea, fainting or death.

WARNING

Running engines produce heat.

Engine parts, especially muffler,

become extremely hot.

Severe thermal burns can occur on

contact.

Combustible debris, such as

leaves, grass, brush, etc. can catch

fire.

•Allow muffler, engine cylinder and fins to cool

before touching.

•Remove accumulated combustibles from

muffler area and cylinder area.

•Install and maintain in working order a spark

arrester before using equipment on

forest-covered, grass-covered, brush-covered

unimproved land. The state of California

requires this (Section 4442 of the California

Public Resources Code). Other states may

have similar laws. Federal laws apply on

federal land.

WARNING

•Operate equipment with guards in

place.

•Keep hands and feet away from

rotating parts.

•Tie up long hair and remove

jewelry.

•Do not wear loose-fitting clothing,

dangling drawstrings or items that

WARNING

Stopping Engine

Depending on how your engine is equipped follow the

steps below:

1. Move speed control to SLOW then to STOP, then

release bail −OR −

2. Push stop switch to OFF −OR −

Do not stop engine by moving choke control to

CHOKE (if equipped). Backfire, fire or engine

damage could occur.

CAUTION

3. Turn key to OFF. Remove key and store out of

reach of children.

4. Close fuel shut-off valve if equipped.

Oil

Capacity

The engine holds approximately (18 oz.; 0.5 liter).

•Use a high quality SAE 30 weight motor oil.

•Do not use special additives.

•Choose a viscosity according to the table opposite.

Note: Synthetic oil meeting ILSAC

GF-2, API certification mark and API

service symbol (shown at left) with

“SJ/CF ENERGY CONSERVING” or

higher, is an acceptable oil at all

temperatures. Use of synthetic oil

does not alter required oil change

intervals.

Recommendation

°F-20 0 20 40 60 80 100

°C-30 -20 -10 0 10 20 30 40

STARTING TEMPERATURE RANGE BEFORE NEXT OIL CHANGE

Viscosity Grades

* Air cooled engines run hotter than automotive

engines. The use of non-synthetic multi-viscosity oils

(5W-30, 10W-30, etc.) in temperatures above 40°F

(4°C) will result in higher than normal oil

consumption. When using a multi-viscosity oil, check

oil level more frequently.

** 30 weight oil, if used below 40°F (4°C), will result in

hard starting and possible engine bore damage due

to inadequate lubrication.

CAUTION

Checking Oil Level •Check oil level before starting the engine.

•Check level daily, or after every eight (8) hours.

•Keep oil level at FULL.

1. Place engine level

and clean around oil

fill area.

2. Remove dipstick and

wipe clean with cloth.

3. Replace and tighten

dipstick. Remove and

check oil level. Oil lev-

el should be at FULL

line on dipstick.

4. If needed, add oil

slowly - recheck. Do

not over fill.

5. Wipe dipstick clean,

replace and tighten.

Remove and check oil

level. Oil level should

be at FULL line on

dipstick.

Do not overfill. Overfilling with oil may cause the

engine to not start, or hard starting. If over the

FULL mark on dipstick, drain oil to reduce oil

level to FULL mark on dipstick.
