problems could be caused by an empty fuel tank. The following table lists some of the

e) Check that there is fuel in the tank and that the fuel valve is open.
f) Check that the spark plug wire(s) are properly connected.
g) Check for loose or faulty wiring connections. If it is necessary to
disconnect wire connectors, Do Not pull on the wires while disconnecting.
h) Check for corrosion at all wiring connections. Even minor corrosion may
cause a faulty connection. Clean connector terminals thoroughly with
electrical contact cleaner, apply dielectric grease and reconnect.

connected and in proper operating condition prior to mower use.
