OPERATING THE MOWER

Electric Start

(412 Only) - Stand behind the mower and hold the handlebar together
with the engine stop lever. Turn the ignition key in a clockwise direc-
tion and hold in position to crank the engine. When the engine starts
release the key and move the throttle to the fast position after starting a
cold engine.
Note: cranking the engine for more than 15 seconds in any one minute
can damage the starter motor. If necessary the engine can be started
manually without using the ignition switch.
To prevent engine damage do not operate the ignition key when the
engine is running.

Forward Travel

(410 Only) - Hold and push against the handlebar with both hands to
move the mower forwards.
(412/413 Only) - Hold the handlebar and operate the ground drive
clutch lever to power the mower in a forward direction.
When the ground drive clutch lever is disengaged the mower may be
pushed. This feature is useful when mowing in confined areas.
(412/413 Only) - Ground speed may be adjusted by operating the speed
variator control. Push forward to slow down and pull back to speed up
IMPORTANT To avoid damage this control should only be opert-
ed whilst the engine is running. If the engine stop lever is released
the engine will stop.

Turning

To make a wide turn steer the mower with the handlebar in the direc-
tion required.
To make a tight turn release the ground drive clutch lever, apply down-
ward pressure on the handlebar to raise the front wheels just above
ground level and steer in the required direction.
To prevent accidents do not raise the front of the mower exces-
sively when making a turn. Never raise the rear of the mower
when the engine is running.

Stopping

Release the ground drive clutch lever, reduce the throttle setting and
release the engine stop lever.
Emergency stop: Release both ground drive clutch lever and engine
stop lever together.
If the engine fails to stop, move the throttle lever to the 'slow' posi-
tion and disconnect the spark plug lead.
