STARTING YOUR MOWER
Read and understand the Safety Precautions before using your mower.
Fill the fuel tank with UNLEADED petrol. Use only clean, fresh petrol - stale fuel may contain deposits that will
Ensure that the spark plug lead is securely connected to the spark plug.
Move the throttle control to the “Choke” positiion (Figure 4).
Pull and hold the Operators Presence Control (OPC) lever against the handle to disengage the engine brake.
THE ENGINE WILL NOT START, OR CONTINUE TO RUN, UNLESS THE OPC LEVER IS HELD AGAINST
THE HANDLE.
Pull the starter cord with a strong smooth pull. Do not remove the pull cord from the guide.
When the engine starts move the throttle control from “Choke” to the “Fast” position.
To engage the drive to the rear wheels on Power Driven models, pull and hold the clutch lever against the
handle. To stop the drive, release the clutch lever.
NOTE: Using the choke is usually unnecessary when starting a warm engine. However, in cool weather it may
still be necessary to use the choke to start the engine.
STOPPING YOUR MOWER
Release the Operators Presence Control (OPC) lever; this will engage the engine brake and operate the
ignition safety cut out device.

adjust the cutting height levers by pulling outwards and moving into the required position (Figure 5)
check the cutter deck is level after adjusting the levers, i.e. that they are all set at the same height.
