Starting the Engine

Take note of the following warnings before starting your lawn mower:
• Never allow young children to operate power tools or equipment.
• Make sure children and pets stay indoors while you're working.
• Before starting up the lawn mower, walk the area. Relocate toys, hoses, rocks and
sticks. Debris such as stones, wood chips and pieces of aged blades can be propelled
at high speeds, which can cause a fatal accident.
• Slow down and take care when mowing around corners, trees, shrubbery or other
obstacles.
• Wear closed-toe, slip-resistant shoes, safety glasses, strong gloves, a hat and ear
protection. Cover your skin as much as possible.
• Ensure upper and lower handle locking levers and knobs are secure.
NOTE: Before starting the lawn mower, check the oil and fuel levels.
Warranty will be void if the engine becomes faulty due to insufficient oil and fuel levels.
Ensure the mower is set to the highest height setting so the blade is not resting deep
into the grass.
1. Push the variable speed throttle control (2) downwards to the engine. (Fig R)
2. Depress the priming bulb (22) fully 3 times. (Fig S)
3. Pull the recoil starter (16) lightly until you feel resistance then pull quickly until the
engine starts. (Fig T)
Do not pull the cord with a jerk or release it until fully rewound.

mower (Fig U).

upper handle bar (1).
