DANGER
This rider mower is capable of amputating hands and feet.
• Stop the mower when children or others are near.
• Keep children out of the operating area and under the
watchful care of a responsible adult.
• Do not carry passengers, especially children, even
with the blade(s) shut off. Children can fall off and be
seriously injured or interfere with the safe machine
operation. Children who have been given rides in
the past can suddenly appear in the mowing area for
another ride and be run over or backed over by the
machine.
• Use care when approaching blind corners, shrubs,
trees, or other objects that obscure vision.

Safety Interlock System Tests

This machine is equipped with a Safety Interlock System.
Do not attempt to bypass or tamper with the switches
and devices.

the machine. See an Authorized Dealer.

• Power Take Off (PTO) switch is ON, OR
• Brake pedal is NOT fully pushed down (parking brake
OFF)
Test 2 — Engine will crank and start if:
• PTO switch is OFF, AND
• Brake pedal is fully pushed down (parking brake ON).

• Operator rises off seat with brake pedal NOT fully pushed
down (parking brake OFF).
Test 4 — Mower Blade Stopping Time Check
The mower blades and mower drive belt will come to a
complete stop in five seconds after the PTO switch is OFF.
If the mower drive belt does not stop in five seconds, see an
Authorized Service Dealer.
Test 5 — Reverse Mowing Option (RMO) Check
• The engine will STOP when reverse travel is attempted
with the PTO switched ON and the Reverse Mowing

attracted to the machine and the mowing activity.

Engine

Check and Add Engine Oil

®
Use Briggs & Stratton Warranty Certified oils for best
performance. Other high-quality detergent oils are acceptable
if classified for service SF, SG, SH, SJ or higher. Do not use
special additives.
Outdoor temperatures determine the proper oil viscosity for
the engine. Use the chart to select the best viscosity for the
outdoor temperature range expected.
A SAE 30 - Below 40 °F (4 °C) the use of SAE 30 will result in hard
starting.
B 10W-30 - Above 80 °F (27 °C) the use of 10W-30 can cause increased
oil consumption. Check oil level more frequently.
C 5W-30
D Synthetic 5W-30
E Vanguard
®
Synthetic 15W-50
*Below 40°F (4°C) the use of SAE 30 will result in hard starting.
**Above 80°F (27°C) the use of 10W-30 can cause increased oil consumption.
1. Put the unit on a level surface as shown in Figure 5.
