5. OPERATION
OPERATING THE CONTROLS FOR MOWING
Throttle Lever
For best cut quality, always mow with the throttle lever in the FAST
position. When the blade rotates 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, the blade could fracture and come
apart.
FAST
When you need to leave the mower for any reason, always turn the
engine OFF by releasing the flywheel brake lever.
Flywheel Brake Lever
The lever must be pulled
backward against the handlebar
to start the engine. The blade
starts to rotate when the lever is
pushed forward against the
handlebar and the recoil starter
grip is pulled.
Continue to hold the lever against
the handlebar to keep the engine
running and the blade rotating.
Release the lever to stop the
engine and stop blade rotation.
