ball.
12. Stop the engine and wait for all moving parts to stop.
13. Walk around the lawn mower to check for the
newspaper ball. If the ball did not go under the deck,
repeat steps 6 through 12.
14. Pull the lawn mower away from the newspaper. If the
newspaper ball unravels or is shredded, the blade has
not properly stopped, resulting in an unsafe operating
condition. Contact an Authorized Service Dealer.
To check for a problem with the BBC system before it
affects its normal operation, you can perform the Special
Test that follows.
Special Test
1. Follow steps 1 through 7 from the Normal Test on
page 12.
2. Move the control bar down to its lowest position
(Position B in Fig. 14).
3. Bring the control bar up into the middle position about
five inches (12.7 cm) below the handle cross bar
(Position C in Fig. 15).

Note: This intermediate position (C) is not the normal
operating position of the control bar. However, it helps to
detect a sticking BBC system early enough to prevent an
unsafe condition later.
4. Release the control bar (Position B in Fig. 15).
Note: If you hear a loud "bang," you have raised the
control bar too high. Repeat steps 2 through 4 above, but
do not raise the control bar as high as in step 3.
5. Immediately push the lawn mower over the newspaper
ball.
6. Stop the engine and wait for all moving parts to stop.
7. Walk around the lawn mower to check for the
m-5085
newspaper ball. If the ball did not go under the deck:
A. Place the ball of newspaper five inches (12.7 cm)
B. Start the engine.
C. Follow steps 2 through 6 above.
8. Pull the lawn mower away from the newspaper. If the
newspaper ball unravels or is shredded, the BBC
system could be deteriorating to the point where it
could result in an unsafe operating condition. Contact
an Authorized Service Dealer for an inspection and
repair of your lawn mower.
If the blade brake clutch system is inoperative, the
blade will continue to rotate when you release the
control bar. Contact with blade could occur,
causing serious injury.
Check the BBC operation before each use.
Never use a BBC-equipped lawn mower with an
inoperative safety system.
Take your lawn mower to an Authorized
Service Dealer for repair if the safety system
fails to operate properly.
