  If your DR Lawn Mower engine won't start manually, there are several things to check: * Ensure the spark plug wire is properly attached. * Verify the Fuel Shut-Off valve is in the ON position (Kawasaki gas tank only). * Confirm the engine has the correct amount of clean oil; if dirty, change it. * Prime the engine by pushing the Primer Bulb 3 to 5 times. * Use fresh, clean gas and a fuel stabilizer if storing gas longer than a month. * Check the Fuel Filter to ensure it's clear. * Ensure the air filter is clean; if dirty, change it. * Make sure the Throttle is in the RUN position and the Throttle Cable is moving freely. * Inspect the spark plug; clean or replace if dirty or cracked. If oily, remove it, clear any oil from the cylinder, and reinsert.

Why is the recoil on my DR Lawn Mower difficult to pull?

  Dr. Erica McmahonAug 8, 2025
  If the recoil on your DR Lawn Mower is difficult to pull, it could be due to several reasons. The engine oil level may be low, causing the engine to seize, or there might be an oil compression lock in the cylinder. To resolve this, remove the spark plug, cover the spark plug hole with a rag, and pull the recoil cord several times to clear any oil from the cylinder. Clean and reinstall the spark plug. If these steps don't work, try to turn the engine pulley by hand with the spark plug wire off. If it turns, the recoil may be broken or jammed.

  If the recoil on your DR Trimmer is difficult to pull or won't pull out, check the engine oil level, as the engine may be seized. An oil compression lock in the cylinder might be the cause. Remove the spark plug, cover the spark plug hole with a rag, and pull the recoil cord several times to clear any oil from the cylinder. Wipe off the spark plug and reinstall it. If this doesn't resolve the issue, the recoil may be broken or jammed. With the spark plug wire off, try turning the engine pulley by hand. If it turns, the recoil is broken or jammed.

Why does my DR SPRINT Trimmer engine smoke?
- Y
  Yvette AndersonAug 19, 2025
  If your DR Trimmer engine smokes, first verify that the oil level is correct. Reduce the incline at which you are operating the machine, as this can cause smoking. Inspect the air filter; clean or replace it if necessary. Ensure you are using the correct oil type for the temperature; consult your Engine Owner’s Manual for details. Also, clean the engine cooling fins and carburetor housing if they are dirty.

  If the engine of your DR Trimmer won't start manually, ensure the spark plug wire is properly attached and that the engine has the correct amount of clean oil. If the oil is dirty, change it. For a cold engine, push the primer bulb 3 to 5 times, releasing it fully each time. Use fresh, clean, unleaded gas, and add a fuel stabilizer if storing gas longer than one month. Check the fuel filter to ensure it's clear. Also, confirm the air filter is clean, the throttle is in the RUN position, and the throttle cable is correctly attached and moving freely. Make sure the spark plug is clean; if it's dirty or cracked, replace it. If it’s oily, remove it, cover the spark plug hole with a rag, pull the recoil cord several times to clear any oil from the cylinder, then wipe and reinsert the spark plug...
