could result in serious injury or death.  
III. Children  
Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the  
presence of children. Children are often attracted to the mower  
and the mowing activity. Never assume that children will remain  
where you last saw them.  
I. General Operation  
1. Read, understand, and follow all instructions on the machine and  
in the manual(s). Be thoroughly familiar with the controls and the  
proper use of the mower before starting.  
1. Keep children out of the mowing area and under the watchful  
care of a responsible adult.  
2. Be alert and turn mower off if children enter the area.  
3. Before and while moving backwards, look behind and down  
for small children.  
4. Never allow children to operate the mower.  
5. Use extra care when approaching blind comers, shrubs, trees,  
or other objects that may obscure vision.

OPERATION  
INTENDED USE: This unit is mainly designed for cutting  
grass. Some overgrown weeds, and taller grass may also  
be cut. Be sure to inspect work area and machine before  
operating. Make sure that all operators of this equipment  
are trained in general machine use and safety.  
16.2  
CUTTING OPERATION  
CAUTION: The mower blade will be rotating when-  
ever engine is running.  
Like all mechanical tools, reasonable care must be  
used when operating machine. Do not operate unit  
in areas where bystanders may be present.  
CAUTION: Stop Blade when crossing gravel drives,  
walks or roads and under all conditions where thrown  
objects might be a hazard.  
Do not operate if excessive vibration occurs.  
If excessive vibration occurs, shut engine off  
immediately and check for damaged or worn blade, loose  
blade jam nut, loose engine or lodged foreign objects.  
Note: See maintenance section for proper blade jam nut  
torque specications.  
CLEARING A CLOGGED CUTTING DECK: Turn  
engine off and wait for blade to stop completely.  
Disconnect spark plug wire.  
Wearing durable gloves, remove clog.  
Danger, the clog may contain sharp materials.  
Reconnect spark plug wire.  
16.1  
STARTING  
CAUTION: Use extreme care when operating  
the blade. Inspect the work area for foriegn  
objects that could cause damage to the unit  
or injure the operator if struck by the blade.  
Never operate the blade with bystanders in  
the work area.  
PUT OIL IN ENGINE BEFORE  
STARTING.  
ENGINE: See engine manufacturers instructions  
for type and amount of oil and gasoline used.  
Engine must be level when checking and lling  
oil and gasoline.  
16.3  
CUTTING HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT  
ENGINE SPEED: Set at factory. The engine runs at a  
constant speed.  
CAUTION: DO NOT make cutting height  
adjustment when engine is running.  
FUEL VALVE: Move fuel valve to "ON" position (when  
provided on engine).  
Cutting height can be adjusted from 2" to 4" by 1/2" incre-  
ments by lowering or rasing the deck. For easiest adjustment  
change the height from one side at a time. To change  
cutting height, remove lock pins, raise or lower deck to  
desired height, then reinsert lock pins. Repeat this step  
on other side  
1. Select desired cutting height before starting engine.  
2. Place mower on a sidewalk or driveway where the  
mower blade is in an unloaded condition. If it must be  
started on the lawn, move mower over previously cut  
grass.  
3. Be sure drive bail is not engaged.  
NOTE: Be sure that the deck is level. Running the deck  
out of level will result in poor cut quality and increased belt  
wear.  
4. Prime to choke.Prime is located in front of the engine.  
5. Pull back on operator presence control, then pull back  
on starter rope slowly until resistance is felt. Then pull  
cord rapidly to start. Repeat if necessary.

FRONT CASTER LOCK  
PROPULSION  
Front caster can be locked with a remote located on the rear of  
the machine for mowing on hillsides (fIg. 4 & 5).  
WARNING! Never mow on any slope greater than 15 degrees.  
ALWAYS mow across the face of slopes; never up and down  
or diagonally.  
This unit is self-propelled, and is controlled by an operator  
presence control. To engage the wheel drive, push forward on  
the bail (back of the handle) and squeeze it against operator's  
handle. The drive is disengaged by releasing this bail.(See  
Fig. 2)  
To engage caster  
lock lift up and  
push forward on  
control rod.  
Fig. 2  
DRIVE  
BAIL  
GROUND SPEED can be varied by selecting a higher or lower  
gear using the gear shift lever on top of the handle (See Fig. 3).  
Under most conditions cutting should be done in rst or second  
gear. Third gear should be reserved for conditions where weeds  
and brush are thinned out or not as tall. The quality of the cut  
produced is directly related to the unit's ground speed during  
cutting. If the quality of the cut is not satisfactory (i.e. material  
left standing) you should shift into a lower gear during cutting.  
For improved control in conned areas, this machine can be  
pushed forward or backward by releasing the drive bail located  
at the back of the handle.

STORAGE  
HILLSIDE MOWING  
Never store engine indoors or in enclosed poorly  
ventilated areas with fuel in tank, where fuel fumes  
may reach an open flame, spark or pilot light, as on a  
furnace, water heater, clothes dryer or other gas appliance.  
If engine is to be unused for 30 days or more, prepare  
as follows:  
HILL  
Be sure engine is cool. Do not smoke. Remove all gasoline  
from carburetor and fuel tank to prevent gum deposits from  
forming on these parts and causing possible malfunction of  
engine. Drain fuel outdoors, into an approved container, away  
from open ame. Run engine until fuel tank is empty and engine  
runs out of gasoline.  
Fig. 5.1  
NOTE: Fuel stabilizer (such as Sta-Bil) is an acceptable  
alternative in minimizing the formation of fuel gum deposits  
during storage. Add stabilizer to gasoline in fuel tank or  
storage container. Always follow mix ratio found on stabilizer  
container. Run engine at least 10 min. after adding stabilizer  
to allow it to reach the carburetor.  
WARNING! Never mow on any slope greater than 15 degrees.  
Always mow across the face of slopes; never up and down or  
diagonally see fig 5.1). DO NOT attempt sudden starts or stop when  
mowing on a slope. Avoid Sudden turns and use extreme cauton when  
changing direction on a slope.  
16.6  
HANDLING & TRANSPORTING:  
CAUTION:Wheels must be chocked or blocked when  
unit is parked on a slope.  
Using two people to lift machine is recommended. Lift holding the  
handle and front of deck. Secure in place during transport.

BELT REPLACEMENT  
BLADE REMOVAL / SHARPENING  
NOTE:When sharpening the blade it is a good idea to check the  
balance of the blade. A properly balanced blade will increase  
life of the bearings and other components.  
When replacing one belt the other should be inspected for  
wear and replaced if worn. It is good practice to change  
both belts when either is worn beyond use. Use only  
original equipment belts for replacement. Billy Goat uses  
only premium quality, kevlar corded and coated belts in  
your unit. Substitute belts do not meet the design and  
performance requirements for your unit , and will  
greatly reduce machine performance and belt life.  
Tools required: 3/8 inch socket, 5/8 inch socket, torque wrench,  
blade block.  
1. Disconnect spark plug wire.  
2. Remove 5 screws (item 76) then remove belt guard (19).  
3. Set the unit on its side to allow access to both pulley and the  
blade.  
Note: When tipping the unit on its side, keep the air cleaner side of  
engine up.Be sure the gas is drained out to prevent from spilling before  
tipping the unit on its side. Never tip the mower more than 90 degrees  
and do not leave the mower tipped for any length of time.  
4. While protecting your hands with pair of gloves or heavy rag  
to hold the blade, loosen but do not remove the bolt (88) on the  
pulley side (g. 6).  
5. Remove jam nut (68), blade washer (43), blade (44), blade washer  
(43), and blade spacer (39).  
6. Replace or sharpen the blade then install in the exact order they  
were removed (g. 7).  
7.Tighten the jam nut until it is ushed with the end of the shaft (g 7).  
Then tighten the bolt on the pulley side - Torque it to 80 ft-lbs.  
Note: When replacing the blade use B.G.I. Part no. 510107.  
8. Reinstall belt guard then connect spark plug.  
Note: Before installing the fasteners inspect them for wear and  
replace as necessary.  
Blade Drive Belt  
Tools required: 3/8 inch socket, 1/2 inch socket, 3/8"  
torque wrench.  
1. Disconnect spark plug wire.  
2. Set the deck height to middle position (3 inches  
cutting height).  
3. Remove 5 screws (item 76) then remove belt guard  
(19).  
4. Loosen but do not remove the nut (71) at the top of  
the engine base located just front of the engine. This will  
release the tension on the blade drive belt (37). NOTE:  
It may be necessary to loosen bolt (85) in order to allow  
idler pulley bracket to pivot .  
5. Replace the old belt with the new belt.  
Note: Use only O.E.M. approved belt for this machine -  
B.G.I. Part no. 510139.  
6. To adjust tension on the new belt, insert 3/8" torque  
wrench in the idler bracket, apply 10 lbs. of torque then  
tighten the nut (71) on top of the engine base (g. 8).  
Note: Belt requires very little tension to drive the blade.  
Over tensioning the belt will greatly reduce the life of  
the belt.  
7. Install belt guard using 5 screws (76)  
8. Reconnect spark plug wire.  
Note: Start the unit up and cut grass to make sure the  
blade belt is not slipping.

SELF PROPELLED DRIVE ADJUSTMENT  
Tools required: two 1/2 wrenches.  
Drive Belt  
As the clutch wears, adjustments may be required to maintain  
proper control cable tension, and clutch engagement (g.  
11). If the clutch begins slipping or squealing during normal  
operation it may require an adjustment to increase the  
clutch cable tension. A properly adjusted drive clutch should  
require a minimum of 3/8" of spring stretch when drive bail is  
engaged.(fig. 12) Adjust by tightening or by loosening  
clutch cable adjusting nut as required, located at the  
underneath the engine base (fig. 13). Replacement of  
cable may be necessary if adjustment will not allow for  
proper drive clutch.  
Tools required: 3/8 inch socket, 1/2 inch socket, 3/8" torque  
wrench.  
1. Follow steps 1 through 5 above to remove the blade drive belt.  
2. Set the unit on its side to allow access to both pulley and  
the blade.  
Note: When tipping the unit on its side, keep the air cleaner  
side of engine up. Be sure the gas is drained out to prevent from  
spilling before tipping the unit on its side. Never tip the mower  
more than 90 degrees and do not leave the mower tipped for  
any length of time.  
3. Swing over the drive belt idler to release tension on drive belt  
then remove it (g. 9).  
4. Install the new belt (g. 10).  
Note: Use only O.E.M. approved belt for this machine - B.G.I. Part  
no. 510138.  
5. Set the unit back down.  
WARNING: If the drive clutch begins to squeal or slip,  
do not continue to operate your unit until adequate  
adjustment or repair has been performed. Improper adjust-  
ment can cause drive clutch to slip and overheat, greatly  
reducing machine performance and transmission life.  
6. Follow steps 6 through 8 on previous section to reinstall the  
blade belt.
