Assembly

Note: Determine left and right hand sides of
the unit by standing in the normal
operator's position.

Handle

1. The mower is shipped from the factory with
filler between the upper and lower handle joints
to prevent shipping and assembly damage. Align
upper and lower handles and remove the filler
with a pliers.
2. The left handle knob is shipped from the factory
on the outside of the handle (Fig. 3). Remove the
left knob and bolt. Reinstall knob and bolt on
inside of handle (Fig. 4). Both handle knobs
should be positioned on the inside of the
handles. Tighten handle knobs.
3. Move handle latches slightly outward so they
will not be in the way when pivoting the handle
backward into the operating position (Fig. 4).
4. Pivot handle backward. Move handle latches
inward while snapping handle stud into center
hole of handle latch (Fig. 4). If a handle latch
does not fit tightly against the handle tube,
remove latch from handle stud, bend the latch
inward, and reattach to handle stud. Repeat as
necessary to ensure a tight fit between latch and
handle. Make sure handle knobs are securely
tightened.
Note: If handle height is not satisfactory,
adjust by placing handle stud into a
different hole.
5. Ensure control cables are to the rear and inside
of handles. Secure cables to handle with cable
ties (Fig. 4).

Starter Rope

1. Pull starter rope through rope guide on handle
(Fig. 5).
Note: To make the rope easier to loop,
squeeze the control bar on the handle
to release the blade brake.

Battery

(Electric start models only)
1. Connect battery to wire harness (Fig. 6).
2. Charge Battery. Refer to Charging Battery
section.

Before Starting

Oil

Fill crankcase with SAE 30 oil until oil level reaches
FULL mark on dipstick. 10W-30 oil may be
substituted if SAE 30 is not available. The maximum
crankcase capacity is 20 ounces (0.6 liters) of oil.
Use any high quality detergent oil having the
American Petroleum Institute (API) "service
classification"—SF, SG, SH or SJ.
Before each use, ensure oil level is between FULL
and ADD marks on dipstick (Fig. 7). Add oil if level
is low.
1. Position mower on level surface and clean
around oil dipstick (Fig. 7).
2. Remove dipstick by rotating cap
counterclockwise 1/4 turn.
3. Wipe dipstick and insert it into filler neck.
Rotate cap clockwise 1/4 turn. Then remove
dipstick and check level of oil on side of dipstick
with FULL and ADD marks (Fig. 7). If level is
low, add only enough oil to raise level to FULL
mark on dipstick. DO NOT FILL ABOVE
FULL MARK BECAUSE ENGINE COULD
BE DAMAGED WHEN STARTED. POUR
OIL SLOWLY.
