FIELD and BRUSH MOWER
Checking and adjusting clutch engagement:
1. Start your machine in the normal manner.
2. With the Operator Presence Lever depressed, shift into low gear.
3. Increase the engine rpm but do not squeeze the Clutch Lever. The machine should not move when the
Clutch Lever is not squeezed.
IF YOUR MACHINE “CREEPS” DURING THIS TEST, YOUR CLUTCH NEEDS ADJUSTMENT. CONSULT
CHAPTER 5, PAGE 27 OF YOUR SAFETY AND OPERATING MANUAL AND MAKE ALL NECESSARY
CORRECTIONS BEFORE USING.
Before Starting the Engine
1. Check the oil level every time you use the machine. See Figure 2 on page 14.
2. Check the gas level (Figure 2).
Starting
1. Move the Shift Lever to N (Neutral) (Figure 3).
2. Move the Throttle (Figure 1, on page 12) to the CHOKE position (to the RUN position if the engine is
already warm).
NOTE: If the engine is cold, push the Primer Bulb (Figure 4)
in and completely release it, lifting your finger
and letting it pop back to its original position. Repeat three to four times. In cold weather, you may
need to press additional times, being sure that the bulb inflates between pumps.
3. Turn the Key (Figure 1) to START.
4. Grasp the recoil starter handle
and slowly pull until you feel resistance. Let the cord retract a little
bit, then pull the cord rapidly to start the engine. One or two pulls usually starts the DR SCOUT
FIELD and BRUSH MOWER.
5. As the engine warms up, slowly adjust the Throttle to the Run position. Wait until the engine runs
smoothly before each Throttle adjustment.
