SAFETY RULES  
Safe Operation Practices for Ride-On Mowers  
Look for this symbol to point out im-  
portant safety precautions. It means  
CAUTION!!! BECOMEALERT!!! YOUR  
SAFETY IS INVOLVED.  
•
•
Check brake operation frequently. Adjust and service  
asrequired.  
Besuretheareaisclearofotherpeoplebeforemowing. Stop  
machine if anyone enters the area.  
•
•
Never carry passengers or children even with the blades off.  
Do not mow in reverse unless absolutely necessary. Always  
look down and behind before and while backing.  
Never carry children. They may fall off and be seriously  
injured or interfere with safe machine operation.  
Keep children out of the mowing area and under the watchful  
care of another responsible adult.  
CAUTION: Inordertopreventacciden-  
talstartingwhensettingup,transport-  
ing, adjusting or making repairs, al-  
ways disconnect spark plug wire and  
placewirewhereitcannotcontactspark  
plug.  
•
•
•
•
Be alert and turn machine off if children enter the area.  
Before and when backing, look behind and down for small  
children.  
Mow up and down slopes (15° Max), not across.  
Remove obstacles such as rocks, tree limbs, etc.  
Watch for holes, ruts, or bumps. Uneven terrain could over-  
turn the machine. Tall grass can hide obstacles.  
Use slow speed. Choose a low gear so that you will not have  
to stop or shift while on the slope.  
Avoid starting or stopping on a slope. If tires lose traction,  
disengage the blades and proceed slowly straight down the  
slope.  
If machine stops while going uphill, disengage blades, shift  
into reverse and back down slowly.  
CAUTION: Do not coast down a hill in  
neutral, you may lose control of the  
tractor.  
•
•
•
CAUTION: Tow only the attachments  
that are recommended by and comply  
withspecificationsofthemanufacturer  
of your tractor. Use common sense  
when towing. Operate only at the low-  
est possible speed when on a slope.  
Too heavy of a load, while on a slope,  
is dangerous. Tires can lose traction  
with the ground and cause you to lose  
control of your tractor.  
•
•
•
•
Do not turn on slopes unless necessary, and then, turn  
slowly and gradually downhill, if possible.

tain vehicle components contain or emit chemicals

TOWING CARTS AND OTHER ATTACHMENTS  
TO OPERATE MOWER (See Fig. 11)  
Tow only the attachments that are recommended by and  
comply with specifications of the manufacturer of your  
tractor. Use common sense when towing. Too heavy of a  
load, while on a slope, is dangerous. Tires can lose traction

BEFORE STARTING THE ENGINE  
CHECK ENGINE OIL LEVEL  
•
The engine in your tractor has been shipped, from the  
factory, already filled with summer weight oil.  
Check engine oil with tractor on level ground.  
Remove oil fill cap/dipstick and wipe clean, reinsert the  
dipstick and screw cap tight, wait for a few seconds,  
remove and read oil level. If necessary, add oil until  
“FULL” mark on dipstick is reached. Do not overfill.  
For cold weather operation you should change oil for  
easier starting (See “OIL VISCOSITY CHART” in the  
Customer Responsibilities section of this manual).

MULCHING MOWING TIPS  
IMPORTANT: FOR BEST PERFORMANCE, KEEP MOWER  
HOUSING FREE OF BUILT-UP GRASS AND TRASH.  
CLEAN AFTER EACH USE.  
•
•
Thespecialmulchingbladewillrecutthegrassclippings  
many times and reduce them in size so that as they fall  
ontothelawntheywilldisperseintothegrassandnotbe  
noticed. Also, the mulched grass will biodegrade  
quickly to provide nutrients for the lawn. Always mulch  
with your highest engine (blade) speed as this will  
provide the best recutting action of the blades.  
Avoidcuttingyourlawnwhen it iswet. Wetgrass tends  
to form clumps and interferes with the mulching action.  
The best time to mow your lawn is the early afternoon.  
At this time the grass has dried and the newly cut area  
will not be exposed to the direct sun.  
Forbestresults,adjustthemowercuttingheightsothat  
the mower cuts off only the top one-third of the grass  
blades (See Fig. 13). For extremely heavy mulching,  
reduce your width of cut on each pass and mow slowly.  
Certaintypesofgrassandgrassconditionsmayrequire  
that an area be mulched a second time to completely  
hide the clippings. When doing a second cut, mow  
across or perpendicular to the first cut path.  
COLD WEATHER STARTING (50° F and below)  
•
When engine starts, slowly push choke control in until  
theenginebeginstorunsmoothly.Continuetopushthe  
choke control in small steps allowing the engine to  
acceptsmallchangesinspeedandload,untilthechoke  
control is fully in. If the engine starts to run roughly, pull  
thechokecontroloutslightlyforafewsecondsandthen  
continue to push the control in slowly. This may require  
an engine warm-up period from several seconds to  
several minutes, depending on the temperature.  
The attachments can be used during the engine warm-  
upperiodandmayrequirethechokecontrolbepulledout

•
•
•
•
•
NOTE: If at a high altitude (above 3000 feet) or in cold  
temperatures (below 32 F) the carburetor fuel mixture may  
need to be adjusted for best engine performance. See “TO  
ADJUST CARBURETOR” in the Service and Adjustments  
section of this manual.  
Change your cutting pattern from week to week. Mow  
northtosouthoneweekthenchangetoeasttowestthe  
next week. This will help prevent matting and graining  
of the lawn.  
MOWING TIPS  
•
Tire chains cannot be used when the mower housing is  
attached to tractor.  
•
Mower should be properly leveled for best mowing  
performance. See“TO LEVEL MOWER HOUSING”in

STORAGE  
Immediatelyprepareyourtractorforstorageattheendofthe  
season or if the tractor will not be used for 30 days or more.  
ENGINE  
FUEL SYSTEM  
CAUTION: Never store the tractor with  
gasoline in the tank inside a building  
where fumes may reach an open flame  
or spark. Allow the engine to cool  
before storing in any enclosure.  
IMPORTANT: IT IS IMPORTANT TO PREVENT GUM  
DEPOSITS FROM FORMING IN ESSENTIAL FUEL SYSTEM  
PARTS SUCH AS CARBURETOR, FUEL FILTER, FUEL  
HOSE, OR TANK DURING STORAGE.  
ALSO,  
EXPERIENCE INDICATES THAT ALCOHOL BLENDED  
FUELS (CALLED GASOHOL OR USING ETHANOL OR  
METHANOL) CAN ATTRACT MOISTURE WHICH LEADS  
TO SEPARATION AND FORMATION OF ACIDS DURING  
STORAGE. ACIDIC GAS CAN DAMAGE THE FUEL  
SYSTEM OF AN ENGINE WHILE IN STORAGE.  
TRACTOR

is to be stored for a period of time, clean it thoroughly,  
remove all dirt, grease, leaves, etc. Store in a clean, dry  
area.

•
Drain the fuel tank.  
Start the engine and let it run until the fuel lines and  
carburetorareempty.  
•
Cleanentiretractor(See“CLEANING”intheCustomer  
Responsibilities section of this manual).  
•
Never use engine or carburetor cleaner products in the  
fuel tank or permanent damage may occur.  
•
Inspect and replace belts, if necessary (See belt re-  
placement instructions in the Service and Adjustments  
section of this manual).  
Lubricate as shown in the Customer Responsibilities  
section of this manual.  
Be sure that all nuts, bolts and screws are securely  
fastened. Inspect moving parts for damage, breakage  
and wear. Replace if necessary.  
•
Use fresh fuel next season.  
NOTE: Fuel stabilizer is an acceptable alternative in  
minimizing the formation of fuel gum deposits during stor-  
age. Add stabilizer to gasoline in fuel tank or storage  
container. Always follow the mix ratio found on stabilizer  
container. Run engine at least 10 minutes after adding  
stabilizer to allow the stabilizer to reach the carburetor. Do  
not drain the gas tank and carburetor if using fuel stabilizer.

If battery is removed from tractor for storage, do not  
store battery directly on concrete or damp surfaces.  
Replace with new spark plug(s).  
OTHER  
•
•
Do not store gasoline from one season to another.  
Replace your gasoline can if your can starts to rust.  
Rust and/or dirt in your gasoline will cause problems.  
•
•
Ifpossible,storeyourtractorindoorsandcoverittogive  
protection from dust and dirt.  
Cover your tractor with a suitable protective cover that  
does not retain moisture. Do not use plastic. Plastic  
cannot breathe which allows condensation to form and  
will cause your tractor to rust.  
IMPORTANT: NEVER COVER TRACTOR WHILE ENGINE  
AND EXHAUST AREAS ARE STILL WARM.
