To reduce the potential for any injury, comply with the following safety instructions. Failure to comply
with the instructions may result in personal injury.
SAFE OPERATION PRACTICES FOR WALK-BEHIND MOWERS
TRAINING
1. Read this owner’s manual carefully in its en
tirety before attempting to assemble or
operate this machine. Be completely familiar
with the controls and the proper use of this
machine before operating it. Keep this manual
in a safe place for future and regular reference
and for ordering replacement parts.
2. Your rotary mower is a precision piece of
power equipment, not a plaything. Therefore,
exercise extreme caution at all times.
3. Never allow children to operate a power
mower. Only persons well acquainted with
these rules of safe operation should be al
lowed to use your mower.
4. Keep the area of operation clear of all per
sons, particularly small children and pets.
Stop engine when they are in the vicinity of
your mower. Although the area of operation
should be completely cleared of foreign ob
jects, an object may have been overlooked
and could be accidently thrown by the mower
in any direction and cause serious personal
injury to the operator or any others allowed in
the area.
PREPARATION
1. Thoroughly inspect the area where the equip
ment is to be used. Remove all stones, sticks,
wire, bones and other foreign objects which
could be picked up and thrown by the mower
in any direction and cause serious personal
injury to the operator or any others allowed in
the area.
2. Do not operate equipment when barefoot or
wearing open sandals. Always wear substan
tial footwear.
3. Do not wear loose fitting clothing that could
get caught on the mower.
4. Check the fuel before starting the engine.
Gasoline is an extremely flammable fuel. Do
not fill the gasoline tank indoors, while the
engine is running, or while the engine is still
hot. Wipe off any spilled gasoline before start
ing the engine as it may cause a fire or explo
sion.
5. Disengage the self-propelled mechanism or
drive clutch on units so equipped before start
ing the engine.
6. The blade control handle is a safety device.
Never attempt to bypass its operation. Doing
so makes the safety device inoperative and
may result in personal injury through contact
with the rotating blade. The blade control han
dle must operate easily in both directions.
7. Never attempt to make a wheel or cutting
height adjustment while the engine is run
ning.
8. Mow only in daylight or in good artificial light.
9. Never operate the equipment in wet grass.
Always be sure of your footing. A slip and fall
can cause serious personal injury. Keep a firm
hold on the handle and walk, never run.
OPERATION
1. Do not change the engine governor settings
or overspeed the engine. Excessive engine
speeds are dangerous.
2. Do not put hands or feet near or under rotating
parts. Keep clear of the discharge opening at
all times as the rotating blade can cause in
jury.
3. Stop the blade when crossing gravel drives,
walks or roads.
4. After striking a foreign object, stop the
engine, remove the wire from the spark plug,
and thoroughly inspect the mower for any
damage. Repair the damage before restarting
and operating the mower.
5. If the equipment should start to vibrate abnor
mally, stop the engine and check immediately
for the cause. Vibration is generally a warning
of trouble.
6. Shut the engine off and wait until the blade
comes to a complete stop before removing
the grass catcher or unclogging the chute.
The cutting blade continues to rotate for a few
seconds after the engine is shut off. Never
place any part of the body in the blade area un
til you are sure the blade has stopped rotating.
7. Before cleaning, repairing or inspecting, make
certain the blade and all moving parts have
stopped. Disconnect the spark plug wire, and
keep the wire away from the spark plug to pre
vent accidental starting.
8. Do not run the engine indoors.
9. Mow across the face of slopes, never up-anddown. Exercise extreme caution when chang
ing direction on slopes. Do not mow ex
cessively steep slopes. Always be sure of
your footing. A slip and fall can cause serious
personal injury.
10. Always disconnect electric mowers (line
operated) before cleaning, repairing or ad
justing.
11. Never operate mower without proper guards,
plates or other safety protective devices in
place.
MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE
1. Check the blade and engine mounting bolts at
frequent intervals for proper tightness.
2. Keep all nuts, bolts, and screws tight to be
sure the equipment is in safe working condi
tion.
3. Never store the equipment with gasoline in
the tank inside of a building where fumes may
reach an open flame or spark. Allow the
engine to cool before storing in any en
closure.
4. To reduce fire hazard, keep the engine free of
grass, leaves, or excessive grease.
5. Check the grass catcher bag frequently for
wear or deterioration. For safety protection,
replace only with new bag meeting original
3 equipment specifications.

TO STOP ENGINE AND BLADE
1. Release the blade control handle to stop the
engine and blade.
t WARNING j
The blade continues to rotate for a
few seconds after the engine is shut
off.
2. Disconnect the spark plug wire and ground it
against the engine to prevent accidental start
ing while equipment is unattended.
USING YOUR ROTARY MOWER
Be sure that lawn is clear of stones, sticks, wire,
or other objects which could damage lawn mower
or engine. Such objects could be accidently
thrown by the mower in any direction and cause
serious personal injury to the operator and others.
Operate a new engine at intermediate speeds and
light load for the first few hours as you would a
new automotive engine.
Page 9
For best results, do not cut wet grass because it
tends to stick to the underside of the mower,
preventing proper discharge of grass clippings,
and could cause you to slip and fall. New grass,
thick grass or wet grass may require a narrower
cut. Blade speed should be adjusted to the condi
tion of the lawn.
The best mowing pattern is one that allows the
clippings to discharge towards the uncut part of
the iawn. This permits recutting of the clippings
to further pulverize them. When cutting high
weeds, discharge towards cut portion, then recut
at right angies to first direction.
For best resuits, cut off one-third or less of the
total length of the grass. Lawn should be cut in
the fall as long as there is growth.
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.
Units Without Height Adjustment Brackets
Adjustment may be made by removing and moving
axle bolts to desired position. Cutting heights will
be raised as axle bolts are moved to a lower hole
and lowered as axle bolts are moved to a higher
hole in the deck. All axle bolts must be mounted in
the same relative position. Belleville washers
must be assembled so that the cupped side of the
washers are against the deck.
THROTTLE
If adjustment becomes necessary, the throttle
control wire assembly can be reset as follows:
1. Loosen, but do not remove, screw securing
throttle control wire assembly at engine. See
figure 7.
2. Move throttle control lever on handle to
“FAST” position.
3. Move control lever on engine to full open posi
tion. Retighten screw to secure throttle con
trol wire assembly.
IMPORTANT
If you strike a foreign object, stop
the engine. Remove wire from spark
plug, thoroughly inspect the mower
for any damage, and repair the
damage before restarting and
operating the mower. Extensive
vibration of the mower during opera
tion is an indication of damage. The
unit should be promptly inspected
and repaired.
ADJUSTMENTS
CAUTION
A
Do not at any time make any adjust
ment to lawn mower without first
stopping engine and disconnecting
spark plug wire.
CUTTING HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT Units With Height Adjustment Brackets
An adjusting plate and thumb lever at each wheel
provides cutting height adjustment. Each ad
justing plate hais five height positions. Height of
cut will be changed when the thumb lever is
moved from one position to another. Simply
depress thumb lever towards wheel and move
wheel and lever assembly to desired position. All
wheels must be placed in the same relative posi
tion.
CARBURETOR ADJUSTMENTS
\ WARNING ^
If any adjustments are made to the
engine while the engine is running
(e.g. carburetor), keep clear of all
moving parts. Be careful of heated
surfaces and muffler.
Minor carburetor adjustment may be required to
compensate for differences in fuel, temperature,
altitude and load.
Refer to the separate engine manual packed with
your mower for carburetor adjustment informa
tion.
LUBRICATION
IMPORTANT
Always stop engine and disconnect
spark plug wire before cleaning,
lubricating or doing any kind of
work on lawn mower.
Blade Control—Lubricate the pivot points on the
blade control handle and the brake cable at least
once a season with light oil. See figure 15. The
blade control must operate freely in both direc
tions.
Page 10
Brake
Cable
FIGURE 15.
Chute Defiector—The torsion spring and pivot
point should be lubricated periodically witt light
oil to prevent any rust or binding. Deflector must
work freely.
Wheels—Mower may be provided with ball bear
ing wheels. Lubricate at least once a seaso i with
light oil. Also, if the wheels are removed for any
reason, lubricate the surface of the axle belt and
the inner surface of the wheel with light oil. 4 oz.
plastic bottle of light oil lubricant is ava lable.
Order part number 737-0170. Engine oil ma/ also

MAINTENANCE
CAUTION
When tipping the unit, empty the fuel
tank and keep engine spark plug side
up.
CUTTING BLADE
A. Removal for Sharpening or Replacemeni
^ WARNING \
Remove the large bolt and lock washer which
holds the blade and adapter to the engine
crankshaft. Remove the blade and adapter from
the crankshaft.
If the blade or blade adapter needs replacing,
remove the two small bolts, lock washers and nuts
which hold the blade to the adapter.
CAUTION
A
Periodically inspect the blade adapt
er for cracks, especially if you strike
a foreign object. Replace when nec
essary.
B. Sharpening
Remove the cutting blade by following the direc
tions of the preceding section.
When sharpening the 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
unblanced blade will cause excessive vibration
when rotating at high speeds, may cause damage
to the mower and could break, causing personal
injury.
It is recommended that the blade always be
removed from the adapter for the best test of
balance. The blade can be tested by balancing it
on a round shaft screwdriver. Remove metal from
the heavy side until it balances evenly.
C. Reassembly
Before reassembling the blade and the blade
adapter to the unit, lubricate the engine
crankshaft and the inner surface of the blade
adapter with light oil. Lubricating the bolt holes,
bolts and inner surface of the nuts with light oil is
also recommended. A 4 oz. plastic bottle of light
oil lubricant is available. Order part number
737-0170. Engine oil may also be used.
When replacing the blade, be sure to install the
blade with the side of the blade marked “Bottom”
(or with part number) facing the ground when the
mower is in the operating position.
Blade Mounting Torque
3/8" Dia. Bolt 375 in. lb. min., 450 in. lb. max.
5/16" Dia. Bolt 150 in. lb. min., 250 in. lb. max.
To insure safe operation of your unit, all nuts and
bolts must be checked periodically for correct
tightness.
Be sure to disconnect and ground
the spark plug wire before working
on the cutting blade to prevent
accidental engine starting.
DECK
The underside of mower deck should be cleaned
after each period of use as grass clippings, leaves,
dirt and other matter will accumulate. This ac
cumulation of grass clippings, etc., is undesirable
10
Page 11
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.
ENGINE
Refer to the separate engine manual for engine
maintenance instructions.
AIR CLEANER
Service air cleaner every 25 hours under normal
conditions. Clean every few hours under extreme
ly dusty conditions. Poor engine performance and
flooding usually indicates that the air cleaner
should be serviced.
To service the air cleaner, refer to the separate
engine manual packed with your unit.
SPARK PLUG
The spark plug should be cleaned and the gap
reset once a season. Spark plug replacement is
recommended at the start of each mowing
season; check engine manual for correct plug
type and gap specifications.
CAUTION
OFF SEASON STORAGE
The following steps should be taken to prepare
lawn mower for storage.
1. Clean and lubricate mower thoroughly as
described in the lubrication instructions.
2. Refer to engine manual for correct engine
storage instructions.
3. Coat mower’s cutting blade with chassis
grease to prevent rusting.
4. Store mower in a dry, clean area.
