Operation

Mowing Advice

1. The speed of the motor is governed to a factory pre-set speed and the motor
will try and maintain this speed during use. If the speed of the engine slows
this could indicate the mower is being overloaded, by trying to cut too much
grass or the catcher may be full. Try mowing a narrower strip, mowing slower,
raising the cutting height or emptying the catcher. Grass also should not be
cut if the grass is wet.
2. Before mowing always check and clear the grassed area for all foreign
objects, especially solid ones semi-concealed in the ground such as rocks,
stumps and garden stakes.
3. Sharp blades cut cleanly and efficiently, if the blade is dull it will tear the
grass. This will result in the ends turning brown. When the blades no longer
cut cleanly either sharpen them or replace them.
4. To safely operate the mower ensure all four wheels are on the ground and
be careful not to lose your footing or control of the mower. Be very careful
when mowing uneven or rough ground. Keep a firm grip on the handle bar
at all times, always walk, never run with the mower.
5. For healthy growth, grass should not be cut too short. The grass will remain
healthier, greener and require less watering.
6. Vary your cutting pattern from week to week, this will help to prevent
matting and graining of the grass.
7. Be aware of any local or national restrictions when using this appliance.
This could include, but not restricted to, times of operation, location of
operation, or work place operation.

Engine tipping

When cleaning, or performing any maintenance
such as replacing the blades, it is very important that
the mower is only tipped backwards (Fig U). Failing
to do so will result in the engine oil flowing into the
cylinder and muffler making starting very difficult if
at all. Should this occur, the mower should be taken
to a mower repair shop which is not covered under
warranty.

Poor engine performance

Should the engine idle or run rough at full speed with excessive bluey/black
smoke emanating from the muffler, it is possible that either the engine was
slightly tipped incorrectly . If the mower had previously been tipped, allow the
motor to run for a few minutes and the excess oil will burn out.
If the engine is not running at full speed, STOP the mower, check the fuel is
fresh, check the oil level, and also inspect under the deck to ensure there is no
build up of grass.
Check the spark plug (24).
If the mower continues to under perform, take the mower to your nearest
authorised Service Agent (Refer to page 35 for information relating to finding
your nearest Service Agent).
