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.
When you need to empty the
grass bag or leave the mower for
any reason, always turn the
engine OFF.
Blade Control Lever
To start blade rotation, press the
button on top of the blade control
lever, then push the lever forward
and hold it against the handlebar.
Release the blade control lever to
stop the blade.
Operate the blade control lever
with a quick and complete motion,
so the blade control is always
either fully engaged or stopped.
This will help to prevent stalling
the engine, and it will also extend
the service life of the blade
control mechanism.
Always release the blade control lever before starting the engine to
prevent the blade from turning.
