SAFETY RULES
Safe Operation Practices for Ride-On Mowers
•
•
•
•
•
Be sure the area is clear of other people before mowing.
WARNING: In order to prevent ac-
cidental starting when setting up,
transporting, adjusting or making
repairs, always disconnect spark
plug wire and place wire where it
cannot contact spark plug.
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.
Keepchildrenoutofthemowingareaandunderthewatchful
care of another responsible adult.
WARNING: Do not coast down a hill
in neutral, you may lose control of
the tractor.
•
•
Be alert and turn machine off if children enter the area.
Before and when backing, look behind and down for small
children.
WARNING: Tow only the attach-
ments that are recommended by
and comply with specifications of
the manufacturer of your tractor.
Use common sense when towing.
Operate only at the lowest possible
speed when on a slope. Too heavy
of a load, while on a slope, is dan-
gerous. Tires can lose traction with
the ground and cause you to lose
control of your tractor.
•
•
•
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.
Do not turn on slopes unless necessary, and then, turn
slowly and gradually downhill, if possible.

using ethanol or methanol) can attract moisture which
leads to separation and formation of acids during stor-
age. Acidicgascandamagethefuelsystemofanengine
while in storage. To avoid engine problems, the fuel
system should be emptied before storage of 30 days
or longer. Drain the gas tank, start the engine and let
it run until the fuel lines and carburetor are empty. Use
fresh fuel next season. See Storage Instructions for
additional information. Never use engine or carburetor
cleaner products in the fuel tank or permanent damage
may occur.
Mower should be properly leveled for best mowing per-
formance. See“TO LEVEL MOWER HOUSING”in the
Service and Adjustments section of this manual.
•
•
The left hand side of mower should be used for trim-
ming.
Drive so that clippings are discharged onto the area
that has been cut. Have the cut area to the right of the
machine. This will result in a more even distribution of
clippings and more uniform cutting.
•
Whenmowinglargeareas,startbyturningtotherightso
that clippings will discharge away from shrubs, fences,
driveways, etc. After one or two rounds, mow in the
opposite direction making left hand turns until finished
(See Fig. 7 ).
TO START ENGINE (See Fig. 5)
When starting the engine for the first time or if the engine
has run out of fuel, it will take extra cranking time to move
fuel from the tank to the engine.
•
Sit on seat in operating position, depress clutch/brake
pedal and set parking brake.
•
•
•
Place gear shift lever in neutral (N) position.
Move attachment clutch to “DISENGAGED” position.
Move throttle control to choke position.
NOTE: Before starting, read the warm and cold starting
procedures below.
•
Insertkeyintoignitionandturnkeyclockwiseto“START”
position and release key as soon as engine starts.
Do not run starter continuously for more than fifteen
seconds per minute. If the engine does not start after
several attempts, move throttle control to fast position,
wait a few minutes and try again. If engine still does
not start, move the throttle control back to the choke
position and retry.
FIG. 7
•
If grass is extremely tall, it should be mowed twice to
reduce load and possible fire hazard from dried clip-
pings. Make first cut relatively high; the second to the
desired height.
WARM WEATHER STARTING (50° F and above)
•
When engine starts, move the throttle control to the
fast position.
•
•
Do not mow grass when it is wet. Wet grass will plug
mower and leave undesirable clumps. Allow grass to
dry before mowing.
Always operate engine at full throttle when mow-
ing to assure better mowing performance and proper
discharge of material. Regulate ground speed by se-
lecting a low enough gear to give the mower cutting
performance as well as the quality of cut desired.
•
The attachments and ground drive can now be used.If
the engine does not accept the load, restart the engine
and allow it to warm up for one minute using the choke
as described above.
COLD WEATHER STARTING ( 50° F and below)
•
When engine starts, allow engine to run with the
throttle control in the choke position until the engine
runs roughly, then move throttle control to fast posi-
tion.This may require an engine warm-up period from
several seconds to several minutes, depending on the
temperature.
•
When operating attachments, select a ground speed
that will suit the terrain and give best performance of
the attachment being used.
•
The attachments can also be used during the engine
warm-up period.
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.

TO SHARPEN BLADE (See Fig. 9)
NOTE: We do not recommend sharpening blade - but if
you do, be sure the blade is balanced.
OPERATOR PRESENCE SYSTEM
Care should be taken to keep the blade balanced. An un-
balanced blade will cause excessive vibration and eventual
damage to mower and engine.
Besureoperatorpresenceandinterlocksystemsarework-
ing properly. If your tractor does not function as described,
repair the problem immediately.
•
The blade can be sharpened with a file or on a grind-
ing wheel. Do not attempt to sharpen while on the
mower.
To check blade balance, you will need a 5/8" diameter
steel bolt, pin, or a cone balancer. (When using a
cone balancer, follow the instructions supplied with
balancer.)
•
•
•
•
The engine should not start unless the clutch/brake
pedalisfullydepressedandattachementclutchcontrol
is in the disengaged position.
Whentheengineisrunning,anyattemptbytheoperator
to leave the seat without first setting the parking brake
should shut off the engine.
When the engine is running and the attachment clutch
is engaged, any attempt by the operator to leave the
seat should shut off the engine.
The attachment clutch should never operate unless
the operator is in the seat.
•
NOTE: Do not use a nail for balancing blade. The lobes of
the center hole may appear to be centered, but are not.
•
Slide blade on to an unthreaded portion of the steel bolt
or pin and hold the bolt or pin parallel with the ground.
If blade is balanced, it should remain in a horizontal
position. If either end of the blade moves downward,
sharpen the heavy end until the blade is balanced.

MAINTENANCE
NOTE: Although multi-viscosity oils (5W30, 10W30 etc.)
BATTERY
improve starting in cold weather, these multi-viscosity oils
will result in increased oil consumption when used above
32°F. Check your engine oil level more frequently to avoid
possible engine damage from running low on oil.
Yourtractorhasabatterychargingsystemwhichissufficient
for normal use. However, periodic charging of the battery
with an automotive charger will extend its life.
•
•
•
•
Keep battery and terminals clean.
Keep battery bolts tight.
Keep small vent holes open.
Recharge at 6-10 amperes for 1 hour.
Change the oil after every 25 hours of operation or at least
once a year if the tractor is not used for 25 hours in one
year.
Check the crankcase oil level before starting the engine
and after each eight (8) hours of operation. Tighten oil fill
cap/dipstick securely each time you check the oil level.
NOTE: The original equipment battery on your tractor is
maintenance free. Do not attempt to open or remove caps
or covers. Adding or checking level of electrolyte is not
necessary.
TO CHANGE ENGINE OIL (See Figs. 10 and 11)
Determine temperature range expected before oil change.
All oil must meet API service classification SF-SJ.
TO CLEAN BATTERY AND TERMINALS
Corrosion and dirt on the battery and terminals can cause
the battery to “leak” power.
•
•
•
•
Be sure tractor is on level surface.
Oil will drain more freely when warm.
Catch oil in a suitable container.
Remove oil fill cap/dipstick. Be careful not to allow dirt
to enter the engine when changing oil.
•
Disconnect BLACK battery cable first then RED bat-
tery cable and remove battery from tractor.
•
•

•
•
ENGINE OIL
Drain oil (with engine warm) and replace with clean en-
gine oil. (See “ENGINE” in the Maintenance section of
this manual).
•
BATTERY
•
•
Fully charge the battery for storage.
After a period of time in storage, battery may require
recharging.
To help prevent corrosion and power leakage during
long periods of storage, battery cables should be dis-
connected and battery cleaned thoroughly (see “TO
CLEAN BATTERY AND TERMINALS” in the Mainte-
nance section of this manual).
CYLINDER(S)
•
•
Remove spark plug(s).
Pour one ounce of oil through spark plug hole(s) into
cylinder(s).
•
•
•
Turn ignition key to “START”position for a few seconds
to distribute oil.
Replace with new spark plug(s).
•
•
After cleaning, leave cables disconnected and place
cables where they cannot come in contact with battery
terminals.
If battery is removed from tractor for storage, do not
store battery directly on concrete or damp surfaces.
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.
•
•
If possible, store your tractor indoors and cover it to
give 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: NEVERCOVERTRACTORWHILEENGINE AND
EXHAUST AREAS ARE STILL WARM.
