ADJUSTMENTS
, , ^CAUTION
Do not at any time make any adjust
ment to lawn mower without first
stopping engine and disconnecting
spark plug wire.
CUTTING HEIGHT
An adjusting plate and thumb lever at each wheel
position provides cutting height adjustment. Each
adjusting plate has five holes. Height of cut will
be changed when the thumb lever is moved from
one hole to another. Simply depress the lever
towards wheel and move wheel and lever
assembly to desired position. See figure 16.
Cutting height will be raised as front and rear
levers are lowered. Cutting height will be lowered
as front and rear levers are raised. All wheels must
be positioned at the same height.
For rough or uneven lawns, move the wheels to a
position which will give a higher cutting height.
This mower is designed to be operated at full
throttle to give you the best cut and do the most
effective job of bagging the cut grass.
TO STOP ENGINE
1. Move throttle control lever to “STOP” posi
tion.
2. Remove spark plug wire from spark plug and
ground to prevent accidental starting while
equipment is unattended.
Be sure that lawn is clear of stones, sticks, wire,
or other objects which could damage lawn mower
or engine. For best results and to insure more
even grass distribution, do not mow when lawn is
excessively wet.

engine while the engine is running
(e.g. carburetor), disengage ail
clutches and blades. Keep clear of
all moving parts. Be careful of
heated surfaces and muffler.
CARBURETOR ADJUSTMENTS (See figure 19)
Minor carburetor adjustments may be required to
compensate for differences in fuel, temperature,
altitude and load.
All carburetor adjustments should be made with
the air cleaner on engine. Air cleaner mounting
screw must be in carburetor when engine is run.
Best adjustment is made with a fuel tank half full
of gasoline.
t
FIGURE 17.
HANDLE POSITION
The upper handle can be adjusted to a high or low
position. The operator of the lawn mower can easi
ly adjust the handle position by unscrewing the
two knobs, removing the two bolts and reassem
bling in the other position. No tools are necessary
to make this adjustment. See figure 18.
ir ^ ' V ' I
To Adjust Carburetor:
1. Start engine and run long enough to warm it to
operating temperature.
If engine is out of adjustment so that it will
not start, close the needle valve by turning it
clockwise. Then open needle valve 1-1/2 turns
counterclockwise.
2. Move engine control to run engine at normal
operating speed.
a. Turn needle valve in clockwise until
engine starts to lose speed (lean mixture).
b. Then slowly turn needle valve out counter
clockwise past the point of smoothest
operation until engine just begins to run
unevenly (rich mixture).
c. Turn needle valve back in clockwise very
slowly till engine runs evenly.
d. Final adjustment of the needle valve
should be slightly to the rich side (turn
counterclockwise) of the mid-point.
3. Move engine control to SLOW. Turn idle ad
justing screw until a fast idle is obtained (1750
R.P.M.).
FIGURE 18.
■ t - ► ■ 'll
4. To check adjustment, move engine control
from SLOW to FAST speed. Engine should ac
celerate smoothly. If engine tends to stall or
die out, increase idle speed or re-adjust car
buretor, usually to a slightly richer mixture.

FIGURE 19.
LUBRICATION
IMPORTANT
Always stop engine and disconnect
spark plug wire before cleaning,
lubricating or doing any kind of work
on lawn mower.
Wheels—The wheels require no lubrication.
Engine—Follow engine manual for lubrication in
structions.
Throttle—Periodically lubricate throttle control
lever and throttle wire assembly with a few drops
of light oil (SAE No. 10 or20) for ease of operation.
Discharge Chute Door Mechanism—The torsion
spring and pivot point should be lubricated
periodically with light oil to prevent any rust or
binding. Doors must work freely.
MAINTENANCE
CUTTING BLADE
The blade may easily be removed for sharpening
or replacement as follows:
1. Remove the center bolt and center lock
washer holding the blade and adapter to the
engine crankshaft.
2. Remove the blade and adapter from the
crankshaft.
3. Be careful not to lose the key on the
crankshaft. See figure 20.
4. Remove the two smaller bolts, lock washers
and nuts holding the blade to the adapter. See
figure 20.
FIGURE 20.
When sharpening blade, follow the original angle
of grind as a guide. It is extremely important that
each cutting edge receives an equal amount of
grinding to prevent an unbalanced blade. An un
balanced blade will cause excessive vibration
when rotating at high speeds and may cause
damage to the mower.
The blade can be tested for balance by balancing
it on a screw driver. Remove metal from the heavy
side until it balances evenly. See figure 21.
FIGURE 21.
NOTE
When replacing the blade, be sure
the side of the blade marked “Bot
tom” or having the part number is
facing the ground when the mower
is in the operating position.
11
Page 12
To insure safe operation of your unit, ALL nuts
and bolts must be checked periodically for correct
tightness.

5/16" Dia. Bolt—150 in. lb. min., 250 in. lb. max.
DECK
The underside of the mower deck should be clean
ed after each period of use as grass clippings,
leaves, dirt and other matter will accumulate. This
accumulation of grass clippings, etc., is
undesirable as it will invite rust and corrosion and
may cause an uneven discharge of grass clippings
at the next cutting.
The deck may be'Cleaned by tilting the mower for
ward or on its side and scraping clean with a
suitable tool or by washing with a stream of water
from a garden hose.
A
Do not direct the stream of water at
a hot engine as damage to the
engine may result. Be sure spark
plug wire is disconnected.
