OPERATION

OPERATING THE CONTROLS FOR MOWING

Throttle Lever
For best cut quality, always mow with the throttle lever [1] in the FAST
[2] position. When the blade rotates at the preset fast speed, it creates
a strong fan action that lifts and cuts grass more efficiently. Do not try
to increase the preset engine speed, the blade could fracture and
come apart.

When you need to leave the mower for any reason, move the throttle
to SLOW, then turn the engine OFF by releasing the flywheel
brake lever.
Flywheel Brake Lever
The flywheel brake lever [3] must
[3]
be pulled back against the
handlebar to start and run the
engine. The blade starts to rotate
when the lever is pulled back
against the handlebar and the recoil
starter grip is pulled.
Continue to hold the lever against
the handlebar to keep the engine
running and the blade rotating.
Release the lever to stop the
engine and stop blade rotation.
