3. With the blade control lever
released, pull the starter grip
lightly until you feel resistance,
then pull briskly. Return the
starter grip gently.
4. If the CHOKE position was
used during starting, move the
throttle lever away from the
CHOKE position as soon as
the engine warms up enough
to run smoothly. Set the throttle lever at FAST to mow or at SLOW
to idle.
OPERATING THE CONTROLS FOR MOWING
Throttle Lever
For best cut quality, always mow with
the throttle lever in the FAST position.
When the blades rotate at the preset
fast speed, it creates a strong fan
action that lifts and cuts grass more
efficiently. Do not try to increase the
preset engine speed as the blades
could fracture and come apart.
Blade Control System
Blade rotation is controlled by the blade
control lever and the
Roto-Stop lever.
1. Hold the blade control lever against
the handlebar.
2. With the throttle lever in the FAST
position, push the Roto-Stop lever
forward until it reaches the end stop.
