ENGINE SPEED
Your engine speed has been factory set.
CARBURETOR
Your carburetor is not adjustable. If your
engine does not operate properly due to
suspected carburetor problems, take your
lawn mower to a Sears or other qualified
service center for repair and/or ad just-
ment.
Immediately prepare your lawn mower for
storage at the end of the season or if the
unit will not be used for 30 days or more.
LAWN MOWER
When lawn mower is to be stored for a
period of time, clean it thor oughly, remove
all dirt, grease, leaves, etc. Store in a
clean, dry area.
1. Clean entire lawn mower (See
"CLEANING" in the Maintenance sec-
tion of this manual).
2. Lubricate as shown in the Main te-
nance section of this manual.
3. Be sure that all nuts, bolts, screws,
and pins are securely fas tened.
Inspect moving parts for damage,
breakage and wear. Replace if neces-
sary.
4. Touch up all rusted or chipped paint
surfaces; sand lightly before painting.
HANDLE
You can fold your lawn mower handle for
storage.
1. Remove bolts and nuts.
2. Squeeze the bottom ends of the
lower handle toward each other until
the lower handle clears the handle
bracket, then move handle forward.
3. Loosen upper handle mounting bolts
enough to allow upper handle to be
folded back.
IMPORTANT: When folding the handle
for storage or transportation, be sure to
fold the handle as shown or you may
damage the control cables.
• When setting up your handle from the
storage position, the lower han dle will
automatically lock into the mow ing
position.
IMPORTANT: Never tamper with the
engine governor, which is factory set
for proper engine speed. Over speed-
ing the engine above the factory high
speed setting can be dangerous. If you
think the engine-governed high speed
needs adjusting, contact a Sears or other
qualified service centre, which has proper
equip ment and ex pe ri ence to make any
nec es sary adjustments.
