FUNCTION
CAUTION
Before operating the mower, become famil-
iar with the location and function of all op-
erator controls. Knowing the location,
function, and operation of these controls is
important for safe and efcient operation
of the mower.
Ignition Switch
The ignition switch is located on the right front of the
body and is used to start and stop the engine. The
switch has three positions: “O” is the OFF position,
ON (RUN) is the position the key returns to after
starting, and “S” is the START position. When start-
ing the engine, turn the key clockwise to the “S” po-
sition.
Do not hold the key in the “S” position longer than
10 seconds. If the engine does not start, return the
key to the “O” position for at least 60 seconds before
making a restart attempt. Prolonged cranking can
damage the starter motor and shorten battery life.
Release the key when the engine starts, and it will
return to the ON (RUN) position. To stop the engine,
rotate the key counterclockwise to the “O” position.
