MOWERTHESTARTING
1.11
To prevent engine damage the engine is shipped without oil or
petrol. The engine must be filled with the correct grade of oil and
petrol before starting the engine.
Always use high quality detergent oil classified SAE 30 oil. Never use
additives with recommended oil.
To prolong the life of your engine it is important that the oil is changed
after the first 5 hours of use - refer to ‘Maintenance Schedule’.
Clean around the oil filler cap before removing. With the mower on a
level surface, unscrew and remove the oil filler - dipstick. Wipe oil
from it with a clean cloth. Screw the oil filler - dipstick back in place,
then unscrew and remove it to check the oil level.
The oil level is correct when it is at the full mark on the dipstick.
DO NOT OVERFILL.
Always use clean, fresh unleaded petrol. Purchase fuel in quantities
that can be used within 30 days. Never mix oil with petrol. For added
engine protection Briggs & Stratton recommend the use of their fuel
additive which is available from an authorised Briggs & Stratton ser-
vice dealer.
Fill to base of neck to allow for fuel expansion. Do not overfill the
fuel tank.

MOWERTHEOPERATING
1.13
Stand behind the mower and hold the handlebar together with the
engine stop lever. Turn the ignition key in a clockwise direction and
hold in position to crank the engine. When the engine starts release
the key and move the throttle to the fast position after starting a cold
engine.
note: cranking the engine for more than 15 seconds in any one minute
can damage the starter motor.
If necessary the engine can be started manually without using the igni-
tion switch.
To prevent engine damage do not operate the ignition key when
the engine is running.
Hold the handlebar and operate the ground drive clutch lever to power
the mower in a forward direction.
When the ground drive clutch lever is disengaged the mower may be
pushed. This feature is useful when mowing in confined areas.
If the engine stop lever is released the engine will stop.
To make a wide turn steer the mower with the handlebar in the direc-
tion required.
To make a tight turn release the ground drive clutch lever, apply down-
ward pressure on the handlebar to raise the front wheels just above
ground level and steer in the required direction.
To prevent accidents do not raise the front of the mower exces-
sively when making a turn. Never raise the rear of the mower
when the engine is running.
Release the ground drive clutch lever, reduce the throttle setting and
release the engine stop lever.
Emergency stop: Release both ground drive clutch lever and engine
stop lever together.
If the engine fails to stop, move the throttle lever to the ‘slow’posi-
tion and disconnect the spark plug lead.

To prevent engine damage do not use the mower on slopes greater
than 20 degrees.
Hold the trigger against the handle and raise or lower the mower using
the handle to achieve the desired height of cut. Release the trigger to
secure the mower at the required position.
There are seven height of cut positions. The setting is indicated by the
position of the connecting rod relative to the height of cut indicator.
Always select a height of cut to suit operating conditions. Aim to pre-
vent engine overloading and blockages by avoiding low cuts in long
grass conditions. Be prepared to make two cuts when the grass is long.
To prevent accidents thoroughly inspect the area and remove all
objects which when contacted by the mower cutterblade could
become dangerous projectiles. Inspect the area for hidden obstruc-
tions which when contacted by the cutterblade could risk health
and safety. Remember the location of these obstructions and
ensure that you mow around them.
Raise the rear deflector and lift the grassbag through the handlebar and
lower the rear deflector to rest against the rear of the mower.
To empty the grassbag, pour out the grass clippings and shake the
grassbag vigorously to clean the airways. Good grass collection
depends on good air flow through the grassbag. When collecting grass
clippings it is important that the grassbag is emptied regularly to pre-
vent blockages and engine overloading.

Remove the grassbag and operate the mower with the rear deflector in
the closed position.
Areas of heavy growth should be mown without collecting the clip-
pings. If collection is required, first mow the area without the grass-
bag at the maximum height of cut setting. Allow the grass clippings to
dry out and then mow the area at the maximum height of cut setting
with the grassbag fitted. Reduce the height of cut and mow the area
again as necessary until the required finish is obtained.
To prevent grass damage do not remove more than one third of grass
height in one cut.
The cutterblade is driven by the engine via a friction disc to help pre-
vent damage occurring to the engine crankshaft and cutting mecha-
nism when a hidden obstruction or overload is encountered.
Always stop the engine when a hidden obstruction or excessive vibra-
tion is encountered. Disconnect the spark plug lead and examine the
cutting mechanism. ALWAYS replace a damaged cutterblade - refer to
“Maintenance”.
When moving the mower across non-grassed areas, stop the engine
and set the mower to the maximum height of cut to protect the cutting
mechanism.

Without Grass Collection

1.16
There is very little work to do this month apart from brushing away
leaves. Keep off the grass if frozen or waterlogged.
Rake the grass thoroughly. Spike the lawn to aerate and stimulate soil
organisms and root growth and apply lawn sand if necessary.
The yearly lawn work programme really starts this month. As soon as
the ground conditions are suitable, the first cut can be made. The first
cut should merely “top”the grass as close cutting at this stage could
result in severe yellowing or browning. Two cuts are generally suffi-
cient this month.
Mow often enough to stop grass growing away. Dig out patches of
coarse grass or resistant weed. Re-seed bare patches.
Keep mowing increasing the frequency as required. Treat with selec-
tive weed killers or combined weed/feed preparations if you did not
feed the lawn in April.
Summer mowing should now be under way. It should be necessary to
mow the lawn twice a week. Raking before mowing is important this
month as the combined action keeps runners of clover under control.
Water the grass if necessary, and remember to soak thoroughly.
Treat the grass with the second application of fertiliser or weed
killer/fertiliser. Water when necessary and rake occasionally.As a gen-
eral rule the grass clippings should be removed each time you mow. If
weather conditions are dry and hot and the grass is weed free, leave the
clippings on the lawn to help maintain ground moisture.

Keep mowing regularly and watering as necessary. Fill any cracks
caused by drought with a mixture of sharp sand and soil. In dry weath-
er conditions leave the grass longer to help retain ground moisture.
Raise the height of cut to allow the grass to thicken and protect the
roots from the winter frost and snow.
Rake out the thatch from the turf and spike the lawn to assist in
drainage. Brush in peat and sharp sand.
Use a stiff broom to disperse worm casts before mowing. Keep turf
free from leaves.
Apart from brushing away leaves, December is a slack end of a busy
year. Keep off the lawn if it is very wet or frozen.
The way to achieve a neat striped effect is for the lawn being cut in
parallel stripes, alternate stripes being mown in opposite directions. A
much more important routine is to cut at right angles to the line of the
previous mowing. If the work has been carried in a north-south line,
then the next cutting should be in an east-west direction. The cross-
cutting keeps down the coarse weed grasses.
To prevent grass damage do not remove more than one third of the
grass height in one cut.
