OPERATING THE CONTROLS FOR MOWING

Throttle Lever
For best cut quality, always mow with the throttle lever in the FAST
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.
FAST
When you need to leave the mower for any reason, always turn
the engine OFF by releasing the flywheel brake lever.
Flywheel Brake Lever
The lever must be pulled
backward against the handlebar to
start the engine. The blade starts
to rotate when the lever is pushed
forward 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
FLYWHEEL BRAKE LEVER
engine and stop blade rotation.
