GRASS
CATCHER
• The grass catcher
may be hosed with
water,
but must be dry when used.
• Check your grass catcher
often for
damage
or deterioration.
Through
normal
use it will wear. If catcher
needs
replacing,
replace
only with a manufac-
turer approved
replacement
catcher.
Give the lawn mower
model number
when ordering.
DRIVE WHEELS
Check front drive wheels each time
before you mow to be sure they move
freely.
The whee[s not turning freely means
trash, grass cuttings, etc. are in the drive
wheel area and must be cleaned to free
drive wheels.
If necessary
to clean the drive wheels,
be
sure to clean both front wheels.
1. Remove
hubcaps,
hairpin cotters
and
washers.
2.
Remove
wheels
from wheel adjusters.
3.
Remove
any trash or grass cuttings
from inside the dust cover,
pinion and/
or drive wheel gear teeth.
4.
Put wheels
back in place.
NOTE:
If after cleaning,
the drive wheels
do not turn freely, contact
a Sears or other
qualified
service
center.
GEAR CASE
• To keep your drive system
working
properly,
the gear case and area
around
the drive should
be kept clean
and free of trash build-up.
Clean
under
the drive cover twice a season.
• The gear case is filled with lubricant
to
the proper level at the factory.
The only
time the lubricant
needs attention
is if
service
has been performed
on the
gear case.
• If lubricant
is required,
use only Texaco
Starplex

BEFORE NEXT OIL CHANGE
NOTE:
Although
multi-viscosity
oils
(5W30, 10W30
etc.) improve
starting
in
cold weather,
these multi-viscosity
oils
will result in increased
oil consumption
when used above 32°R Check your
engine oil level more frequently
to avoid
possible
engine
damage
from running
low on oil.
Change
the oil after every 25 hours of
operation
or at least once a year if the
lawn mower
is not used for 25 hours in
one year.
Check
the crankcase
oil level before
starting
the engine and after each five (5)
hours of continuous
use. Tighten
oil plug
securely
each time you check the oil
level.
