SAFETY RULES  
Safe Operation Practices for Ride-On Mowers  
III. CHILDREN  
Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to  
the presence of children. Children are often attracted to  
the machine and the mowing activity. Never assume that  
children will remain where you last saw them.  
GENERAL SERVICE  
•
Never operate machine in a closed area.  
Keep all nuts and bolts tight to be sure the equipment  
is in safe working condition.  
•
•
•
•
•
Keepchildrenoutofthemowingareaandinthewatchful  
care of a responsible adult other than the operator.  
Be alert and turn machine off if a child enters the  
area.  
•
•
Never tamper with safety devices. Check their proper  
operation regularly.  
Keep machine free of grass, leaves, or other debris  
build-up. Cleanoilorfuelspillageandremoveanyfuel-  
soaked debris. Allow machine to cool before storing.  
If you strike a foreign object, stop and inspect the  
machine. Repair, if necessary, before restarting.  
Nevermakeanyadjustmentsorrepairswiththeengine  
running.  
Check grass catcher components and the discharge  
chute frequently and replace with manufacturer's rec-  
ommended parts, when necessary.  
Before and while backing, look behind and down for  
small children.  
•
•
•
Nevercarrychildren,evenwiththebladesshutoff. They  
may fall off and be seriously injured or interfere with  
safemachineoperation.Childrenwhohavebeengiven  
rides in the past may suddenly appear in the mowing  
area for another ride and be run over or backed over  
by the machine.  
Never allow children to operate the machine.  
Useextracarewhenapproachingblindcorners,shrubs,  
trees, or other objects that may block your view of a  
child.  
•
•
•
•
•
Mower blades are sharp. Wrap the blade or wear  
gloves, and use extra caution when servicing them.  
Check brake operation frequently. Adjust and service  
as required.  
Maintain or replace safety and instruction labels, as  
necessary.  
IV. TOWING  
•
Tow only with a machine that has a hitch designed for  
towing. Do not attach towed equipment except at the  
hitch point.  
•
•
•
•
Follow the manufacturer's recommendation for weight  
limits for towed equipment and towing on slopes.  
Never allow children or others in or on towed  
equipment.  
On slopes, the weight of the towed equipment may  
cause loss of traction and loss of control.  
Travel slowly and allow extra distance to stop.  
•
Be sure the area is clear of bystanders before operat-  
ing. Stop machine if anyone enters the area.  
Never carry passengers.  
•
•
Do not mow in reverse unless absolutely necessary.  
Always look down and behind before and while back-  
ing.  
Nevercarrychildren,evenwiththebladesshutoff. They  
may fall off and be seriously injured or interfere with  
safemachineoperation.Childrenwhohavebeengiven  
rides in the past may suddenly appear in the mowing  
area for another ride and be run over or backed over  
by the machine.  
Keepchildrenoutofthemowingareaandinthewatchful  
care of a responsible adult other than the operator.  
Be alert and turn machine off if a child enters the  
area.  
Before and while backing, look behind and down for  
small children.  
Mow up and down slopes (15° Max), not across.  
Choose a low ground speed so that you will not have  
to stop or shift while on the slope.  
Avoid starting, stopping, or turning on a slope. If the  
tires lose traction, disengage the blades and proceed  
slowly straight down the slope.  
V. SERVICE  
SAFE HANDLING OF GASOLINE  
To avoid personal injury or property damage, use extreme  
careinhandlinggasoline. Gasolineisextremelyflammable  
and the vapors are explosive.  
•
•
Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes, and other  
sources of ignition.  
Use only approved gasoline container.  
Never remove gas cap or add fuel with the engine  
running. Allow engine to cool before refueling.  
Never fuel the machine indoors.  
Never store the machine or fuel container where there  
is an open flame, spark, or pilot light such as on a water  
heater or other appliances.  
Never fill containers inside a vehicle or on a truck or  
trailer bed with plastic liner. Always place containers  
on the ground away from your vehicle when filling.  
Remove gas-powered equipment from the truck or  
trailer and refuel it on the ground. If this is not possible,  
then refuel such equipment with a portable container,  
rather than from a gasoline dispenser nozzle.  
Keepthenozzleincontactwiththerimofthefueltankor  
container opening at all times until fueling is complete.  
Do not use a nozzle lock-open device.  
If fuel is spilled on clothing, change clothing immedi-  
ately.  
Never overfill fuel tank. Replace gas cap and tighten  
securely.

unauthorized use.  
HOW TO USE YOUR TRACTOR  
TO SET PARKING BRAKE (See Fig. 4)  
•
Never use the choke to stop the engine.  
Your tractor is equipped with an operator presence sens-  
ing switch. When engine is running, any attempt by the  
operator to leave the seat without first setting the parking  
brake will shut off the engine.  
IMPORTANT: LEAVING THE IGNITION SWITCH IN ANY  
POSITION OTHER THAN "STOP" WILL CAUSE THE BATTERY  
TO BE DISCHARGED, (DEAD).  
NOTE: Under certain conditions when tractor is standing  
idlewiththeenginerunning, hotengineexhaustgasesmay  
cause “browning” of grass. To eliminate this possibility, al-  
ways stop engine when stopping tractor on grass areas.  
•
•
Depress brake pedal (B) all the way down and hold.  
Pull parking brake lever (C) up and hold, release pres-  
sure from brake pedal (B), then release parking brake  
lever. Pedal should remain in brake position. Make  
sure parking brake will hold tractor secure.

OPERATION  
TO ADJUST GAUGE WHEELS (See Fig. 9)  
Gaugewheels areproperlyadjustedwhentheyareslightly  
off the ground when mower is at the desired cutting height  
in operating position. Gauge wheels then keep the deck  
in proper position to help prevent scalping in most terrain  
conditions.  
J
NOTE: Adjust gauge wheels with tractor on a flat level  
surface.  
•
Adjust mower to desired cutting height (See “TO AD-  
JUST MOWER CUTTING HEIGHT” in this section of  
manual).  
K
•
With mower in desired height of cut position, gauge  
wheels should be assembled so they are slightly off  
the ground. Install gauge wheel in appropriate hole.  
Tighten securely.  
L
•
Repeat for all, installing gauge wheel in same adjust-  
ment hole.  
Fig. 7  
SYSTEM CHARACTERISTICS  
The cruise control should only be used while mowing or  
transporting on relatively smooth, straight surfaces. Other  
conditions such as trimming at slow speeds may cause the  
cruise control to disengage. Do not use the cruise control  
on slopes, rough terrian or while trimmimg or turning.  
•
With forward drive pedal depressed to desired speed,  
pull cruise control lever (J) up and hold while lifting  
your foot off the pedal, then release the lever.  
To disengage the cruise control, depress the brake pedal  
or tap on forward drive pedal.  
TO ADJUST MOWER CUTTING HEIGHT  
(See Fig. 8)  
The position of the attachment lift lever (A) determines the  
cutting height.  
Fig. 9  
TO OPERATE MOWER  
Your tractor is equipped with an operator presence sensing  
switch. Any attempt by the operator to leave the seat with  
the engine running and the attachment clutch engaged will  
shut off the engine. You must remain fully and centrally  
positioned in the seat to prevent the engine from hesitat-  
ing or cutting off when operating your equipment on rough,  
rolling terrain or hills.  
A
1. Select desired height of cut with attachment lift lever.  
2. Start mower blades by engaging attachment clutch  
control.  
Fig. 8  
TO STOP MOWER BLADES -  
Disengage attachment clutch control.  
•
Put attachment lift lever in desired cutting height slot.  
The cutting height range is approximately 1" to 4". The  
heights are measured from the ground to the blade tip with  
the engine not running. These heights are approximate  
and may vary depending upon soil conditions, height of  
grass and types of grass being mowed.  
CAUTION: Do not operate the mower  
without either the entire grass catcher,  
onmowerssoequipped,orthedeflector  
shield (S) in place. (See Fig. 10)  
•
The average lawn should be cut to approximately  
2-1/2 " during the cool season and to over 3"during hot  
months. For healthier and better looking lawns, mow  
often and after moderate growth.  
•
For best cutting performance, grass over 6" in height  
should be mowed twice. Make the first cut relatively  
high; the second to desired height.

REVERSE OPERATION SYSTEM (ROS)  
To reengage transmission, reverse above procedure.  
Your tractor is equipped with a Reverse Operation System  
(ROS). Any attempt by the operator to travel in the reverse  
direction with the attachment clutch engaged will shut off  
the engine unless ignition key is placed in the ROS "ON"  
position.  
NOTE: To protect hood from damage when transporting  
your tractor on a truck or a trailer, be sure hood is closed  
and secured to tractor. Use an appropriate means of tying  
hood to tractor (rope, cord, etc.).  
WARNING: Backing up with the attachment clutch en-  
gaged while mowing is strongly discouraged. Turning the  
ROS "ON", to allow reverse operation with the attachment  
clutch engaged, should only be done when the operator  
decides it is necessary to reposition the machine with the  
attachment engaged. Do not mow in reverse unless  
absolutely necessary.

fuel. Do not store, spill or use gasoline  
near an open flame.  
•
The attachments and ground drive can now be used. If  
the engine does not accept the load, restart the engine  
and allow it to warm up for one minute using the choke  
as described above.  
IMPORTANT: WHENOPERATINGINTEMPERATURESBELOW  
32°F (0°C), USE FRESH, CLEAN WINTER GRADE GASOLINE  
TO HELP ENSURE GOOD COLD WEATHER STARTING.  
COLD WEATHER STARTING (50°F/10°C and below)  
•
When engine starts, allow engine to run with the  
throttle control in the choke position until the engine  
runs roughly, then move throttle control to fast posi-  
tion. This may require an engine warm-up period from  
several seconds to several minutes, depending on the  
temperature.  
CAUTION: Alcoholblendedfuels(calledgasohol  
or using ethanol or methanol) can attract mois-  
ture which leads to separation and formation of  
acids during storage. Acidic gas can damage  
the fuel system of an engine while in storage. To  
avoid engine problems, the fuel system should  
be emptied before storage of 30 days or longer.  
Drain the gas tank, start the engine and let it run  
untilthefuellinesandcarburetorareempty. Use  
freshfuelnextseason. SeeStorageInstructions  
for additional information. Never use engine or  
carburetor cleaner products in the fuel tank or  
permanent damage may occur.  
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION WARM UP  
•
Beforedrivingtheunitincoldweather,thetransmission  
should be warmed up as follows:  
•
•
Be sure the tractor is on level ground.  
Release the parking brake and let the brake slowly  
return to operating position.  
•
Allowoneminutefortransmissiontowarmup.This  
can be done during the engine warm up period.  
•
The attachments can also be used during the engine  
warm-upperiodafterthetransmissionhasbeenwarmed  
up.  
NOTE: If at a high altitude (above 3000 feet) or in cold  
temperatures (below 32°F/0°C) the carburetor fuel mixture  
may need to be adjusted for best engine performance. See  
“TO ADJUST CARBURETOR” in the Service and Adjust-  
ments section of this manual.

OPERATION  
PURGE TRANSMISSION  
MOWING TIPS  
•
Tire chains cannot be used when the mower housing  
is attached to tractor.  
CAUTION: Never engage or disengage  
freewheelleverwhiletheengineisrunning.  
•
Mower should be properly leveled for best mowing  
performance. See “TO LEVEL MOWER HOUSING”  
in the Service and Adjustments section of this manual.  
To ensure proper operation and performance, it is recom-  
mended that the transmission be purged before operating  
tractor for the first time. This procedure will remove any  
trapped air inside the transmission which may have devel-  
oped during shipping of your tractor.  
IMPORTANT: SHOULD YOUR TRANSMISSION REQUIRE  
REMOVAL FOR SERVICE OR REPLACEMENT, IT SHOULD  
BEPURGEDAFTERREINSTALLATIONBEFOREOPERATING  
THE TRACTOR.  
•
•
Thelefthandsideofmowershouldbeusedfortrimming.  
Drive so that clippings are discharged onto the area  
that has been cut. Have the cut area to the right of  
the tractor. This will result in a more even distribution  
of clippings and more uniform cutting.  
•
When mowing large areas, start by turning to the right  
so that clippings will discharge away from shrubs,  
fences, driveways, etc. After one or two rounds, mow  
in the opposite direction making left hand turns until  
finished (See Fig. 12).  
1. Place tractor safely on a level surface - that is clear  
and open - with engine off and parking brake set.  
2. Disengage transmission by placing freewheel control  
in disengaged position (See “TO TRANSPORT” in this  
section of manual).  
3. Sitting in the tractor seat, start engine. After the en-  
gine is running, move throttle control to slow position.  
Disengage parking brake  
CAUTION: Atanytime,duringstep4,there  
may be movement of the drive wheels.  
4. Depress forward drive pedal to full forward position,  
hold for five (5) seconds and release pedal. Depress  
reverse drive pedal to full reverse position, hold for five  
(5) seconds and release pedal. Repeat this procedure  
three (3) times.  
Fig. 12  
5. Shut- off engine and set parking brake.  
•
If grass is extremely tall, it should be mowed twice to  
reduce load and possible fire hazard from dried clip-  
pings. Make first cut relatively high; the second to the  
desired height.  
6. Engage transmission by placing freewheel control in  
engaged position (See “TO TRANSPORT” in this sec-  
tion of manual).  
7. Sitting in the tractor seat, start engine. After the engine  
is running, move throttle control to half (1/2) speed.  
Disengage parking brake.  
8. Drive tractor forward for approximately five feet then  
backwards for five feet. Repeat this driving procedure  
three times.  
•
•
Do not mow grass when it is wet. Wet grass will plug  
mower and leave undesirable clumps. Allow grass to  
dry before mowing.  
Always operate engine at full throttle when mow-  
ing to assure better mowing performance and proper  
discharge of material. Regulate ground speed by  
selecting a low enough gear to give the mower cutting  
performance as well as the quality of cut desired.  
Your transmission is now purged and now ready for normal  
operation.  
•
When operating attachments, select a ground speed  
that will suit the terrain and give best performance of  
the attachment being used.

•
•
Empty the fuel tank by starting the engine and let it run  
until the fuel lines and carburetor are empty.  
Never use engine or carburetor cleaner products in  
the fuel tank or permanent damage may occur.  
Remove mower from tractor for winter storage. When  
mower is to be stored for a period of time, clean it thor-  
oughly, remove all dirt, grease, leaves, etc. Store in a  
clean, dry area.  
Use fresh fuel next season.  
•
Clean entire tractor (See “CLEANING” in the Mainte-  
nance section of this manual).  
Inspect and replace belts, if necessary (See belt re-  
placement instructions in the Service and Adjustments  
section of this manual).  
NOTE: Fuel stabilizer is an acceptable alternative in mini-  
mizing the formation of fuel gum deposits during storage.  
Add stabilizer to gasoline in fuel tank or storage container.  
Always follow the mix ratio found on stabilizer container.  
Run engine at least 10 minutes after adding stabilizer to  
allow the stabilizer to reach the carburetor. Do not empty  
the gas tank and carburetor if using fuel stabilizer.  
•
•
•
Lubricate as shown in the Maintenance section of this  
manual.  
Be sure that all nuts, bolts and screws are securely  
fastened. Inspect moving parts for damage, breakage  
and wear. Replace if necessary.  
Touch up all rusted or chipped paint surfaces; sand  
lightly before painting.  
ENGINE OIL  
Drain oil (with engine warm) and replace with clean engine  
oil. (See “ENGINE” in the Maintenance section of this  
manual).  
•
BATTERY  
CYLINDER(S)  
•
•
Fully charge the battery for storage.  
•
•
Remove spark plug(s).  
After a period of time in storage, battery may require  
recharging.  
Pour one ounce of oil through spark plug hole(s) into  
cylinder(s).  
•
To help prevent corrosion and power leakage during  
long periods of storage, battery cables should be dis-  
connected and battery cleaned thoroughly (see “TO  
CLEAN BATTERY AND TERMINALS” in the Mainte-  
nance section of this manual).  
After cleaning, leave cables disconnected and place  
cables where they cannot come in contact with battery  
terminals.  
•
•
Turn ignition key to “START” position for a few seconds  
to distribute oil.  
Replace with new spark plug(s).  
OTHER  
•
•
•
•
Do not store gasoline from one season to another.  
Replace your gasoline can if your can starts to rust.  
Rust and/or dirt in your gasoline will cause problems.  
If possible, store your tractor indoors and cover it to  
give protection from dust and dirt.  
Cover your tractor with a suitable protective cover that  
does not retain moisture. Do not use plastic. Plastic  
cannot breathe which allows condensation to form and  
will cause your tractor to rust.  
If battery is removed from tractor for storage, do not  
store battery directly on concrete or damp surfaces.

Engine Power Rating Information  
The gross power rating for individual gas engine models is labeled in accordance with SAE (Society of Automotive  
Engineers) code J1940 (Small Engine Power & Torque Rating Procedure), and rating performance has been obtained  
and corrected in accordance with SAE J1995 (Revision 2002-05). Torque values are derived at 3060 RPM; horsepower  
values are derived at 3600 RPM. Actual gross engine power will be lower and is affected by, among other things, ambi-  
ent operating conditions and engine-to-engine variability. Given both the wide array of products on which engines are  
placed and the variety of environmental issues applicable to operating the equipment, the gas engine will not develop  
the rated gross power when used in a given piece of power equipment (actual “on-site” or net power). This difference is  
due to a variety of factors including, but not limited to, accessories (air cleaner, exhaust, charging, cooling, carburetor,  
fuel pump, etc.), application limitations, ambient operating conditions (temperature, humidity, altitude), and engine-to-  
engine variability. Due to manufacturing and capacity limitations, Briggs & Stratton may substitute an engine of higher  
rated power for this Series engine.
