MOWING PRECAUTIONS

Before operating the mower for the first time, please review the
MOWER SAFETY beginning on page 4 and the previous chapter,
titled BEFORE OPERATION.
Even if you have operated other mowers, take time to become
familiar with how this mower works and practice in a safe area
until you build up your skills.
For your safety, avoid starting or operating the engine in an
enclosed area such as a garage. Your mower's exhaust contains
poisonous carbon monoxide gas which can collect rapidly in an
enclosed area and cause illness or death.

STARTING THE ENGINE

The blade turns when you operate the starter. It is easiest to start the
engine in a clear or mowed area where the blade can turn freely.
1. Turn the fuel valve to the ON position.
2. Move the throttle lever to the proper starting position.
COLD ENGINE:
Move the throttle lever to the CHOKE position.
