SAFETY RULES  
Safe Operation Practices for Ride-On Mowers  
•
•
•
•
•
Besuretheareaisclearofotherpeoplebeforemowing.  
Look for this symbol to point out im-  
portant safety precautions. It means  
CAUTION!!! BECOMEALERT!!! YOUR  
SAFETY IS INVOLVED.  
Stop machine if anyone enters the area.  
Nevercarrypassengersorchildrenevenwiththeblades  
off.  
Do not mow in reverse unless absolutely necessary.  
Alwayslookdownandbehindbeforeandwhilebacking.  
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.  
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.  
CAUTION: Inordertopreventacciden-  
talstartingwhensettingup,transport-  
ing, adjusting or making repairs, al-  
ways disconnect spark plug wire and  
placewirewhereitcannotcontactspark  
plug.  
•
•
CAUTION: Do not coast down a hill in  
neutral, you may lose control of the  
tractor.  
•
•
•
Watch for holes, ruts, or bumps. Uneven terrain could  
overturn the machine. Tall grass can hide obstacles.  
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.  
•
•
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.

accept small changes in speed and load, until the  
choke control is fully in. If the engine starts to run  
roughly, pull the choke control out slightly for a few  
seconds and then continue to push the control in  
slowly. This may require an engine warm-up period  
from several seconds to several minutes, depending  
onthetemperature.  
•
Fill fuel tank. Use fresh, clean, regular unleaded  
gasolinewithaminimumof87octane. (Useof leaded  
gasoline will increase carbon and lead oxide deposits  
and reduce valve life). Do not mix oil with gasoline.  
Purchase fuel in quantities that can be used within 30  
days to assure fuel freshness.  
IMPORTANT: WHEN OPERATING IN TEMPERATURES  
BELOW 32°F(0°C), USE FRESH, CLEAN WINTER  
GRADE GASOLINE TO HELP INSURE GOOD COLD

WARNING: Experience indicates that alcohol blended  
fuels (called gasohol or using ethanol or methanol) can  
attractmoisturewhichleadstoseparationandformationof  
acids during storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel  
system of an engine while in storage. To avoid engine  
problems, the fuel system should be emptied before stor-  
age 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 Instruc-  
tions for additional information. Never use engine or  
carburetor cleaner products in the fuel tank or permanent  
damage may occur.

To ensure proper operation and performance, it is recom-  
mended that the transmission be purged before operating  
tractor for the first time. This procedure will remove any

•
The special mulching blade will recut the grass clip-  
pings many times and reduce them in size so that as  
they fall onto the lawn they will disperse into the grass  
and not be 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.  
•
Your tractor is now purged and now ready for normal  
operation.  
•
Avoidcuttingyourlawnwhenitiswet. Wetgrasstends  
toformclumpsandinterfereswiththemulchingaction.  
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.  
MOWING TIPS  
•
Mower should be properly leveled for best mowing  
performance. See“TOLEVELMOWERHOUSING”in  
the Service and Adjustments section of this manual.  
•
•
The left hand side of mower should be used for  
trimming.  
Drivesothatclippingsaredischargedontotheareathat  
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.  
When mowing large areas, start by turning to the right  
so 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. 14).  
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  
desiredheight.  
•
•
•
Forbestresults,adjustthemowercuttingheightsothat  
the mower cuts off only the top one-third of the grass  
blades (See Fig. 15). For extremely heavy mulching,  
reduce your width of cut and mow slowly.  
Certain types of grass and grass conditions may  
require 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.  
Change your cutting pattern from week to week. Mow  
northtosouthoneweekthenchangetoeasttowestthe  
nextweek. Thiswillhelppreventmattingandgraining  
of the lawn.  
•
•
MAX 1/3  
•
•
Do not mow grass when it is wet. Wet grass will plug  
mower and leave undesirable clumps. Allow grass to  
drybeforemowing.  
Alwaysoperateengineatfullthrottlewhenmowing  
to assure better mowing performance and proper dis-  
charge of material. Regulate ground speed by select-  
ing a low enough gear to give the mower cutting  
performance as well as the quality of cut desired.
