discharge door handle to prevent the spring–loaded
door from closing while inserting the plug.

2. Since the plug is slightly wider than the discharge
tunnel opening, rotate the plug clockwise slightly
while inserting it (Fig. 3). Make sure the arrow on the
plug decal is pointing upwards.
3. Push the plug all the way in until the spring clip on the
bottom of the plug clicks into place, locking the plug
securely into the discharge tunnel (Fig. 4). Release

Before Starting

Oil

Initially, the crankcase must be filled with .8 quarts
(0.75 liters) of SAE 30 oil; 10W-30 oil may be substituted
if SAE 30 is not available. Use any high quality detergent
oil having the American Petroleum Institute (API)
"service classification"—SF, SG, SH or SJ.
Before each use, ensure that the oil level is between the
FULL and ADD marks on the dipstick (Fig. 5). Add oil if
the level is low.
1. Position the mower on a level surface and clean
around the dipstick (Fig. 5).
