in until it stops.
5. Remove the dipstick and read the oil level on the
dipstick; refer to Figure 7.

Install the Mulch Plug or the
Grass Bag
No Parts Required
Procedure
Important: You must correctly install the mulch plug
(for mulching or side-discharging) or the grass bag (for
bagging); otherwise, the engine will not start.
Figure 7
The machine has a safety switch, located at the bottom of the
channel at the top, right rear of the machine, that prevents
the machine from operating without a mulch plug or a grass
bag. This prevents the machine from throwing debris at the
operator through the rear chute.
For the switch to detect the presence of the mulch plug, the
top of the mulch plug lever must lie fully in the bottom
of the channel (Figure 8).
