Operation

Starting the Engine

For Mowers Equipped with Electric Start
Refer to the Set-Up and Assembly section of this manual for
Gasoline and Oil fill-up instructions.
1. Release all controls on the mower.
2. Move the gear shift lever into the neutral (N) position.
3. Insert the key into the ignition switch.
4. If starting a cold engine, place the throttle/choke control
all the way forward, into the CHOKE position. If restarting
a warm engine, place the throttle/choke control into the
FAST (rabbit) position.
5. Turn the ignition key clockwise to the START position. After
the engine starts, release the key. It will return to the RUN
position.
CAUTION:
Do NOT hold the key in the START
position for longer than five seconds at a time.
Doing so may cause damage to your engine's
electric starter.
6. Move the throttle/choke control into the FAST (rabbit)
position.
NOTE: Never leave the throttle/choke control in the CHOKE
while operating the mower. Doing so will result in a "rich"
fuel mixture and cause the engine to run poorly.
For Mowers Equipped with Recoil Start
Refer to the Set-Up and Assembly section of this manual for
Gasoline and Oil fill-up instructions.
1. Release all controls on the mower.
2. Move the gear shift lever into the neutral (N) position.
3. Move the throttle/choke control lever fully upward to the
CHOKE position to start a cold engine or to FAST (rabbit)
position to start a warm engine.
4. Grasp starter rope handle and pull slowly until rope pulls
slightly harder. Let rope rewind slowly. Then pull rope with
a rapid, full arm stroke. Let rope return slowly. If engine fails
to start after three pulls, repeat instructions (try setting
throttle at fast setting).
5. Move the throttle/choke control into the FAST (rabbit)
position.
NOTE: Never leave the throttle/choke control in the CHOKE
while operating the mower. Doing so will result in a "rich"
fuel mixture and cause the engine to run poorly.
