4.2 Motion Control Levers
Motion Control Levers in Operating Position
Motion control levers are in the operating position when they are as shown above. Left hand lever controls the speed and direction of the LH drive wheel. Right hand lever controls the speed and direction of the RH drive wheel. Moving both levers forward together causes mower to travel forward in a straight line. Moving both levers rearward together causes the mower to travel in reverse in a straight line. To turn left while moving forward, pull back slightly on the LH lever. To turn right while moving forward, pull back slightly on the RH lever. To make a zero radius turn, move one lever slightly ahead of neutral and the other lever slightly behind neutral center position.
4.3 Parking Brake
The parking brake system on the Yard Shark mower is not really a brake, but is actually a pin and cog system that is activated every time the control levers are moved out into the neutral locked position as shown below. It is an automatic system that sets itself when you move the levers out to get off the mower and releases itself when you move the levers back in to start moving. If the mower will not move or sounds like it is straining, simply move the control levers slightly forward or backwards to release the pin.

4.4 PTO Engagement Switch
Located on RH control panel. Switch is pulled UP (“ON” position) to engage the blades. Switch must be in the DOWN or OFF position in order to start the engine.
4.5 Choke Control
Pull choke knob UP or OUT to the choke “ON” position. Push choke knob DOWN or IN the choke “OFF” position.
4.6 Throttle Control
Move lever forward to increase engine speed. Move lever to the rear to idle position. When mowing the throttle should be in the full forward (fastest) position.
4.7 Ignition Switch
Three (3) position switch. The first position is OFF, second position is ON or RUN. The third position is the start position.
4.8 Fuel Gauge / Hour Meter
Digital display indicates amount of fuel remaining. When red light flashes, unit is very low on fuel and should be refueled. Refer to all items in filling the tank (Section 4.1).
The hour meter records time the key is on. Use hour meter to reco rd service intervals.
Page 14

4.11 Cold Engine Starting Procedure
o Be sure engine has oil to the proper level and gas in the fuel tank. o Pull up on Choke to “ON”. o Move throttle control about 1/3 of the way forward. o Turn key to “START” position and hold until engine starts. o If engine fails to start within 5 seconds, release the key, wait at least 10 seconds. o Note: Using the starter for more than 5 seconds at a time can overheat and damage
the starter.
o Gradually push choke knob in as engine warms up.
4.12 Warm Engine Starting Procedure
Same as above but leave choke in the “OFF” position.
4.13 PTO / Blades
DANGER
The PTO switch engages the cutting blades. Be certain everyone including pets are clear of the mower deck and the RH discharge area before engaging the PTO. Operator must be seated before the PTO can be engaged. The motor will kill if the seat switch is not depressed. Move throttle to halfway position. Pull up on PTO switch to the “ON” position. Then move throttle to full forward “FAST” position.
4.14 Deck Deflector
DANGER
Deck is equipped with a rubber deck discharge deflector. Deflector can be pivoted upwards for clearance, for storing or transporting. NEVER mow with the deflector in the UP position unless using an approved grass catcher/collector.
Operating PTO creates a thrown object hazard. NEVER operate with deflector or guards missing. Make sure discharge chute is not pointed toward pets or bystanders.

5.1 Clean Dust and Dirt From Engine Clean Air Intake Screen & Cooling Fins – Check Daily
Check for accumulations of dust, grass clippings, dirt, etc. Check around the fresh air intake screen on top of the engine. Also check cooling fins on engine and oil coolers and clean with compressed air. Be careful on the Honda 24 so the cooling fins on the separate oil cooler are not damaged. Remove excess accumulations around the base of the engine, under the se at, around hydro pumps and the top of the deck. Keeping the machine clean will guarantee a cooler and safer operating environment.
5.2 Check Seat Safety Switch Operation – Check Daily
WARNING
o When raised off the seat, turn key switch to start. o Engine should not crank. o If engine cranks, contact your dealer to resolve this problem before using mower. o While seated on mower, start engine, then engage PTO. o With the control levers moved outward to the locked/parking brake position, raise yourself
off the seat.
o Engine should shut off immediately. o If engine does not shut off, contact your dealer to resolve this problem before
using mower.
5.3 Check Engine Oil Level – Check Daily
At rear right of mower, unscrew dipstick. Wipe clean. Then, reinsert without screwing it in. Add oil, if needed to bring up to the full mark.
Safety interlock is designed to prevent PTO/blades operating unless operator is seated. Failure to maintain proper operation of system can result in injury or death.
5.4 Check Mower Blades – Check Daily
Raise front of mower and check condition of mower blades. If blades are not sharp they must be sharpened or replaced. If blades are bent or damaged replace all of the deck blades. Don’t attempt to straighten bent blades. It is dangerous to straighten because it could cause the blades to crack/break in operation.
5.5 Clean Underside of Deck – Check Daily
While checking conditions of blades, scrape out any accumulated grass clipping from under the mower deck. Mower performance will deteriorate if blades are not in good condition and grass builds up under deck.
Page 19
Page 19
5.6 Air Filter Inspect / Clean
Follow instructions in the respective Honda or Kawasaki owner’s manual for details.
5.7 Engine Oil / Filter Change
o Drain used oil while the engine is warm. Warm oil drains quickly and more completely.
Replace oil filter at each oil change.
o Place a suitable container under the engine to catch used oil. o Remove the oil filler cap / dipstick, drain plug and oil filter. Allow used oil to
drain completely.
o Reinstall drain bolt and tighten securely. o Clean the filter mounting base and coat the rubber seal on the new filter with new
engine oil.
o Screw on the new filter by hand until seal contacts filter base, then tighten another
3/4 - 7/8 turn, alternatively tighten to 16 lbf-ft (22Nm).
o Refill crankcase with new oil (See engine operator’s manual for proper oil selection). o Start engine and check for leaks. Stop engine then check oil level. Add oil if needed to
bring oil to top of safe mark.
o Dispose of used oil and filter at local recycling center and obey all local and federal laws
for these products.
5.8 Check Hydraulic Oil Level
o Be extremely careful with dirt and contamination when you are servicing the
hydrostatic system.
o Contamination is the worst enemy of the hydrostatic system. o Clean around dipstick and filters BEFORE removing. o Only add oil from a sealed container. o Thoroughly clean funnels and anything that will come into contact with the oil. o Contamination in the system will void the warranty on the hydrostatic system. o Check level when oil is cold. o Unscrew dipstick and wipe clean. Insert into oil tank without screwing it in. If oil shows
on the dipstick (approximately 1/4″-1/2″ up from the bottom), then the oil level is adequate. If no oil shows on dipstick, then add oil to bring up to the dipstick. The upper mark is a high level mark for when the oil is hot. If oil tank is overfilled, oil will expand and come out of the dipstick / vent when the oil gets hot.
o See Section 7.4 for proper oil recommendation.
5.9 Check Tire Pressure
Inflate all 4 tires to 12 psi. A special low pressure air gauge (available at most auto parts stores) should be used to accurately check the pressure.
Page 20
Page 20
5.10 Check / Adjust Deck Drive Belt Tension
o Spring for deck belt tension can be found by looking under the RH side of the mower.
To check belt tension, measure the length of the spring. The body of the spring should measure 3-1/2′′ to 3-3/4′′.
o An alternative method is to use a U.S quarter, to use as a feeler gauge between the coils.
Spring tension is correct when quarter will just fit between coils with minimal resistance.
If belt tension needs adjusting remove hair pin and unhook the deck belt tension arm from its stud at the front of the deck (photo above).There are 2 holes for the arm to hook into. Use the front hole for normal operation. If belt becomes stretched enough that you can’t get the proper tension then use the second hole.
Page 21
Page 21
Go to left side of mower. Loosen the flat idler pulley (use a 9/16′′ wrench) and move slightly to the rear. Retighten pulley, rehook spring tension arm and recheck spring length. Adjust until body of spring measures 3-1/2′′ to 3-3/4′′ or a quarter fits snugly between the coils.
5.11 Lubricate Control Levers
o Raise seat. Use a grease gun with multipurpose grease.
o Grease zerks at the control arm pivots (2). o Use a light “dry lube” type spray lubricant (use a dry lube containing Teflon or “moly” )to
lube the brake linkage and the control arms.
o Lubricate the pivot for the park lock position, where the side plates of the handle mount to
the control arm block.
o Applying a small amount of multipurpose grease to the tab that actuates the parking lock
will make the entire park lock system work more smoothly.
o Use (2) 3/4′′ wrenches to adjust the amount of tension on control lever arm mounts so the
levers have the proper amount of resistance. (This is a personal preference on how stiff to make the arms to move back and forth from the locked position to the travel position).
5.12 Grease Deck Lift Pivots
Use a grease gun with multipurpose grease. Grease zerks at the rear deck lift pivots (2).
Page 22
Page 22
5.13 Grease Front Wheel Axle Bearings
Use a grease gun with multipurpose grease. Grease the zerks on e ach the front wheels. One zerk per wheel.
5.14 Check Pump Drive Belt
Raise rear of mower to access pump drive belt. Use blocks as necessary to support mower safely. Pump belt idler arm should be free to move with firm hand force. If arm is sticky or stiff, remove arm and coat the mounting surfaces with anti-seize lubricate. Reassemble and adjust tension at pivot bolt. Proper tension can be achieved by tightening ½′′ nut on pivot bolt until spring washers are compressed, then back off ¼ turn. Arm should be free to move with firm hand force. Install the lock nut and tighten making sure that the adjustment is not changed. Measure length of the spring – Proper length is 4-1/4′′ inside spring hooks, OR length of coils should measure 3-1/4′′. Another method to check tension – A quarter ($.25 US coin) should just fit in between the coils in the spring.
Adjust position of idler to achieve proper belt tension. Use (2) 9/16′′ wrenches to move the idler in its adjustment slot.

5.15 Spark Plugs Check/Adjust/Replace
Disconnect spark plug caps. Remove dirt from around spark plug areas. Remove the spark plugs with a 13/16 spark plug wrench. Replace plugs if the electrodes are worn or if insulator is cracked or chi pped. Regap spark plugs to .030′′ (.75 mm). Reinstall plugs by hand, be careful to avoid cross threading. To reinstall used plugs, tighten 1/8-1/4 turn after the spark plug seats lightly. To install new spark plugs, remove old plugs and gap new plugs. Thread new spark plugs into engine by hand, then use a 13/16′′ spark plug wrench and tighten 1/2 turn after the spark plug seats. (or tighten to 16 ft lb.)
5.16 Air Filter Replace
Each year or 300 hours replace primary (paper) air filter elements. Follow instructions in resp ective engine owner’s manual. Secondary filter should be replaced according to engin e owner’s manual.
5.17 Check / Adjust Valve Clearances
Both Kawasaki and Honda recommend valve clearance be checked every year or 300 hours. This should be performed by your servicing dealer unless you have the proper t ools and are mechanically adept. Refer to Honda or Kawasaki shop manual for procedure s.
5.18 Fuel Filter Change
Replace every year or 300 hrs, replace sooner if it becomes clogged. Consult engine owner’s manual for instructions.
5.19 Change Hydraulic Filter
o Place a pan under the hydrostatic oil filter, unscrew oil filter enough so the oil can drain
into the oil pan. It is possible to get a little oil on the drive belt at this point. It is recommended to place a small shield over the belt to prevent it from coming into contact with the oil.
o Allow oil to drain completely o Apply a thin film of clean oil to oil filter seal. o Screw filter on by hand until seal contacts base, then tighten an additional 3/4 turn. o Add proper oil to bring up to proper level – See section 5.8 in this manual. o See Section 7.4 for proper oil recommendation. o Dispose of used oil and filter at local recycling center and obey all local and federal laws
for these products.
5.20 Change Hydraulic Oil and Filter
o Be extremely careful with dirt and contamination when you are servicing the
hydrostatic system.
o Contamination is the worst enemy of the hydrostatic system. o Clean around dipstick and filter BEFORE removing. o Only add oil from a sealed container. o Thoroughly clean funnels and anything that will come into contact with the oil. o Contamination in the system will void the warranty on the hydrostatic system. o Place a pan under the oil tank, remove magnetic oil plug and drain the oil.

o Allow oil to drain completely o Thoroughly clean the drain plug and replace. o Apply a thin film of clean oil to oil filter seal. o Screw filter on by hand until seal contacts base, then tighten an additional 3/4 turn. o Add oil to hydraulic reservoir until oil shows on the dipstick, approximately 7 quarts. o See Section 7.4 for proper oil recommendation. o To prime system – raise the rear of mower so that the rear wheels can spin freely. o Secure machine with jack stands. o Start engine and run at idle. o Immediately push both levers full forward and hold for 10 seconds. Then pull both levers
fully rearward and hold for ten seconds. Repeat this procedures several times until all air is purged from the system.
o Lower mower to the ground and check oil level. The oil level should be approximately 1/2′′
on the dipstick without the cap screwed in. Add oil to bring to proper level.
o Screw dipstick / cap onto hydraulic reservoir. o Dispose of used oil and filter at local recycling center and obey all local and federal laws
for these products.
6 Service & Adjustments Perform as Needed
6.1 Adjusting Throttle Cable
o If the throttle cable is not properly adjusted, the engine may not be operating at full speed
or the throttle may not stay in the fast position.
o Procedure should be done on a cold engine to prevent any chance of burns from the
hot engine.
o Shut down mower, set parking brakes and remove the key. o Move throttle lever full forward until it reaches its limiting stop and then back off about
1/8′′ - 1/4′′.
o Go to rear of mower. Throttle linkage should be fully opened (fast position).
o Loosen the clamp on the throttle cable and pull cable tight so the throttle is fully open. o Retighten clamp. o If throttle doesn’t hold its position while mowing, then the friction discs on the throttle lever
need to be tightened.
o Remove the cover on the control panel. Use a 7/16′′ combination wrench and a 7/16′′
socket to adjust the tension on the throttle pivot.
o Adjust pinch bolt so that it is tight enough to hold throttle in position.

6.2 Adjusting Choke Cable
If choke cable is not properly adjusted, it is possible that either the choke won’t fully close or fully open. This will cause either hard starting, rough running or poo r fuel economy. When the choke control is pushed all the way in (off), the knob should not contact the base of the choke mounting. There should be about a 1/8′′ - 1/4′′ gap as shown below.
If adjustment is needed, go to back of mower. Loosen the clamp holding the choke cable. Now position choke knob 1/4′′ up. Go to rear of mower and gently push choke cable to the right (opens choke) and tighten screw on cable when the choke is fully opened.
6.3 Deck Adjustments
To level the cutting deck, proceed as follows. Set mower deck at 3 cutting height. Measure from top of frame rail to top of deck as shown below.
Page 26
Page 26
The front left and front right measurements should be within 1/16′′ of each other. If adjustment is needed at the front, adjust the front rockshaft hangers (as shown below).
The hangers at the front rockshaft (shown above) provide vertical adjustment. Normally these hangers are adjusted all the way UP. If one side of the deck is higher that the other, loosen the bolts at the higher side of the deck and move hanger slightly lower so that equal measurement is achieved at both sides. When equal measurements are achieved, proceed with the rear adjustment.
Measure from the top rear of the frame rail to the deck top on both sides of the machine (as shown above). These measurements should be within 1/16” of each other and should also be 1-3/4 – 1-7/8 less than the measurement at the front of the deck to the top of the rail. This will make the rear of the blades cut slightly higher than the front of the blades.
If adjustment is needed, remove cotter pin and clevis pin at the front of the lift linkage rods. Shorten or lengthen linkage rod to achieve the proper height.
When adjustment is complete, all 4 carrier links should have equal pressure on them.
6.4 Transmission Neutral Setting
If mower creeps when levers are in the neutral position (not the locked position) then the neutral position needs to be adjusted. Do the adjustments in this order only.
o Raise rear of mower slightly off the ground so the rear wheels can turn freely. o Secure machine with jack stands. o Control levers should be in the operating position (handles together). o With engine at a fast idle, wheels should not be turning.
Page 27
Page 27
o Proceed with adjustment as follows. o Adjust centering on pumps first. To adjust pump neutral – use a 17mm open end wrench
and an 8mm open end wrench.
o Use the 17mm wrench to loosen the locknut (loosen just enough to turn eccentric with the
8mm wrench). Turn eccentric back and forth to see which way it needs to be adjusted. Adjust so wheel stops turning. When wheel stops turning move the lever forward and backward and let return to neutral. If necessary, readjust until neutral is achieved then retighten locknut with the 17mm wrench.
Picture above shows location of adjustments.
o Shut down engine and lower mower to the ground. o When the pumps’ neutral positions have been readjusted, the linkage rods will have to be
adjusted, also.
o With engine off, and control handles in the operating position, check linkage adjustment.
As you move the levers into the parking lock position the tab at the lower end of the control levers should enter the square hole perfectly centered. Neither side of the tab should touch the sides as the lever is moved into its locked position. The locations are shown in the figures below.
Page 28
Page 28
Loosen 5/16′′ locknuts on the linkage rod. Keep in mind that the nuts at the rear of the rods are left hand thread and the nuts at the front are right hand thread. Turn linkage rod to lengthen or shorten as needed so correct alignment is achieved. Retighten locknuts, then recheck alignment. Readjust or fine tune as nece ssary.
6.5 Deck Belt Replacement
Lower deck to its lowest position. At front of mower deck, remove hairpin clip and lift spring tensioning arm off of its stud. Flip up the deck pulley covers with the step plates on them on the LH and RH sides of the deck. Covers can be locked in an open position by opening up 90 degrees and inserting a pin, bolt or screwdriver in the hole. Belt can now be removed. Replace worn belt with the new belt. Reattach the spring tensioning arm onto its stud, replace hairpin clip. Follow directions in previous section to adjust to proper tension. Recheck tension after first few hours as it is normal to have to adjust the belt tension until the belt becomes “broken in”; see belt tensioning in Section 5.10.
7 Fuel & Lubricant Recommendations
WARNING
Use unleaded gasoline with a pump octane rating of 89 or higher. These engines are designed to run on unleaded gasoline. Unleade d gas produces fewer engine and spark plug deposits and extends exhaust system life. Never use old or stale gasoline or an oil/gas mixture. Avoid getting dirt or water in the tank.
Gasoline is extremely flammable and gasoline vapor can explode. Failure to follow proper procedures can result in personal injury or death.
7.1 Oxygenated Fuels
To meet clean air standards, some area of the United States and Canada use oxygenated fuels to reduce emissions. If you use an oxygenated fuel, be sure it is unleaded and meets the minimum octane rating of 89. Ethanol – (ethyl or grain alcohol) 10% by volume. You may use gasoline containing up to 10% ethanol by volume. Ethanol blends may be marketed under the name “Gasohol”.
Page 29
Page 29
If you notice any undesirable operating symptoms, try another source of gasoline. Fuel system damage or performance problems resulting from the use of an oxygenated fuel containing more than the percentages of oxygenates listed above are not covered under warranty.
7.2 Fuel Stabilizer / Conditioner
Use a fuel stabilizer / conditioner to keep gasoline fresh if mower is to be stored longer than 30 days. Fuel stabilizers are most effective when mixed with fresh fuel. Fuel stabilizers will NOT make old gasoline fresh.
7.3 Engine Oil Recommendation
See engine owner’s manual for proper oil recommendations for the engine on your mo wer.
7.4 Hydraulic Oil Recommendation
We recommend the use of a Universal Tractor Hydraulic Oil. Viscosity – 60 SUS (10cSt) at no more than 212deg F (100 deg C) Some acceptable choices are as follows:
o John Deere: J20A, JD20C, Hy-Gard o Case-IH: Hy-Tran, Hy-Tran Plus, Hy-Tran Ultra o AGCO: Power Fluid 821, 821XL o Cenex: Qwiklift HTB, Maxtron THF+
