If after reading this section, you are unsure about how to perform any of the steps please call (800)791-9458 Mon-Fri 9-5 EST for customer service. Failure to perform these steps properly can damage the lawn mower or shorten its lifespan. UNPACKING Unpack the lawn mower and all its parts, and compare against the list below.

SIDE DISCHARGE CHUTE 1. Lift the spring-loaded discharge cover located on the side of the mower. 2. Slide two hooks of the side discharge chute under the hinge pin and lower the spring on the side discharge cover. Caution: Do not attempt to remove the permanently mounted spring loaded side discharge cover at any time.
OPERATION ADD OIL The lawn mower is shipped without oil. User must add the proper amount of oil before operating the lawn mower for the first time. The oil capacity of the engine crankcase is 15.2 fl. oz. For general use, we recommend 5W, 4-stroke engine oil. ENGINE OIL RECOMMENDATIONS Select good quality detergent oil bearing the American Petroleum Institute (API) service classifications SJ, SL, or SM (synthetic oils may be used).
ENGINE START/STOP LEVER This lawn mower comes equipped with an engine start/stop lever to prevent unintentional starting and to ensure safe operation. Releasing this lever will quickly stop the blade in case of danger. The lever must be actuated before the lawn mower is started. When the engine start/stop lever is released, it must return to its initial position.
Turn off the engine before doing any checks on the blade. Keep in mind that the blade continues to rotate for a few seconds after the engine has been turned off. Never attempt to manually stop the blade. Regularly check to see if the blade is securely attached, is in good condition and is sharp. If the contrary is the case, sharpen the blade or replace it. In the event that the blade strikes an object, immediately turn off the lawn mower and wait for the blade to come to a complete stop.
MAINTENANCE Proper routine maintenance of this mower will help prolong the life of the machine. Always observe safety rules when performing any maintenance. The warranty on this lawn mower does not cover items that have been subjected to operator abuse or negligence. To receive full valve from warranty, operator must maintain the lawn mower as instructed here. Changing of engine-governed speed will void engine warranty. All adjustments should be checked at least once each season.
STORAGE CAUTION: Never place any type of storage cover or tarp on the MOWER while it is still hot. If the MOWER is being stored for short periods of time (30 to 60 days), add stabilized fuel to the gas tank until it is full. Run the engine for 2 – 3 minutes allowing stabilized fuel mixture to circulate through the carburetor. NOTE: Keeping the fuel tank full, reduces the amount of air and vapor and helps reduce deterioration of the fuel.
