OPERATION  
Like all mechanical tools, reasonable care must be used when operating machine.  
Inspect machine work area and machine before operating. Make sure that all operators of this  
equipment are trained in general machine use and safety.  
PUT OIL IN ENGINE BEFORE STARTING  
STARTING  
ENGINE: See engine manufacturer’s instructions for type and amount of oil and gasoline used. Engine  
must be level when checking and filling oil and gasoline.  
ENGINE SPEED: Controlled by throttle lever on the control console plate.  
FUEL VALVE: Move fuel valve to "ON" position (when provided on engine).  
CHOKE: Operated with the throttle control by moving the throttle control to the full start position.  
THROTTLE: Move remote throttle control to fast position. Pull starting rope to start engine.  
ELECTRIC START: Choke the engine if necessary. Pull up then push forward on the toggle switch until  
engine starts, then release switch to run.  
1. Select desired cutting height before starting engine.  
2. Be sure drive lever or blade lever are not engaged.  
3. Choke if necessary.  
4. Pull back on starter rope slowly until resistance is felt. Then pull cord rapidly to start. Repeat if necessary.  
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 specifications.  
HANDLING & TRANSPORTING:  
Using two people to lift machine is recommended. Lift holding the handle and front of deck. Secure in place  
during transport.  
Never lift the machine while the engine is running. ENGINE MUST BE OFF while handling, lifting, or  
transporting the unit on or off the vehicle.  
STORAGE  
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:  
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 flame. Run engine until fuel tank is empty and engine runs out of gasoline.  
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.  
CAUTION: Wheels must be chocked or blocked when unit is parked on a slope.

CUTTING OPERATION  
CAUTION: Shut off the blades when crossing gravel drives, walks or roads  
and under all conditions where thrown objects might be a hazard.  
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.  
Fig. 16-1  
CAUTION: Use extreme care when operating the blades. Inspect the work  
area for foreign objects that could cause damage to the unit or injure the  
operator if struck by the blade. Never operate the blades with bystanders in the  
work area.  
GENERAL OPERATION: To engage the blades, depress the operator’s left  
hand control lever against operator’s handle. The blade is disengaged by  
releasing this lever. (See Fig. 1.1) To engage the wheel drive press down on  
the brake lever, lift the operator’s right hand control lever against operator’s  
handle. The drive is disengaged by releasing this lever.(See Fig. 1.2) Ground  
speed can be varied by shifting gears as described on page 12. To begin  
cutting, engage the blade lever, allow the blade to spin up to speed, and  
engage the wheel drive to begin moving forward into the material to be cut.  
NOTE: Do not engage blades during transport between work sites. The blade  
should remain disengaged at all times when work is not being performed.  
The best performance is achieved when cutting in dry conditions. If the deck  
becomes choked with grass or debris during operation, back unit off of debris  
allowing machine to clear itself and continue cutting, or shut the unit off and  
clear the clog by hand (See above). A drop in engine RPM or a noticeable  
change in engine sound is usually a good indicator of a clogged discharge or  
other interference.  
Fig. 16-2  
Under most conditions cutting should be done in second or third gear. Fourth  
gear should be reserved for conditions where grass is 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 confined areas, this machine can be pushed forward or backward by  
releasing the drive lever and shifting to neutral located at the bottom of the  
operator's right-hand handle while depressing the brake release lever.  
Fig. 16-3  
CUTTING HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT  
CAUTION: DO NOT make cutting height adjustment when engine is running.  
Cutting height can be adjusted from 1.5" to 4" by placing spacers above or below  
caster spindles. For easiest adjustment change the height on one side at a time.  
To change cutting height, tilt the unit back, remove lynch pin, remove all spacers  
then set if off to the side, remove caster rig, add or subtract spacers, reinstall  
caster rig, place remainder of spacers if any, then reinsert lynch pin (see figure  
16-1 through 16-4). Repeat this step on other side.  
Fig. 16-4  
NOTE: Be sure that the spacers are even on both casters. Running the deck out  
of level will result in poor cut quality and increased belt wear.

engage the blade, depress the operator’s left hand control lever against  
operator’s handle. The blades are disengaged by releasing this lever. (See figure  
16-5)  
NOTE: The blade clutch must be either fully engaged for cutting or fully  
disengaged to bring the blades to a stop. Do not operate the unit with the blade  
clutch partially engaged. Premature belt wear and clutch failure will result from  
improper operation of the clutch.  
Operator’s  
handle  
CAUTION: Use extreme care when operating the blades. Inspect the work  
area for foreign objects that could cause damage to the unit or injure the operator  
if struck by the blade. Never operate the blades with bystanders in the work

PROPULSION  
This unit is self-propelled, and is controlled by an operator presence control. To  
engage the wheel drive, first push down on the BRAKE RELEASE lever on the  
right side, and then lift the operator's DRIVE lever on the right side against  
operator's handle. The drive is disengaged by releasing the lower lever. (See  
figure 16-6). Shift to neutral, push and hold the Brake lever to free wheel.  
GROUND SPEED can be varied by selecting a higher or lower gear using the  
gearshift lever on top of the console (see figure 16-7). Note: Only change gear  
selection when unit is stopped. Under most conditions cutting should be done in  
second or third gear. Fourth gear should be reserved for conditions where grass  
is 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 confined areas, this machine can be pushed forward or  
backward by releasing the drive lever located at the bottom of the operator's  
right-hand handle, and shifting to neutral while depressing the brake release  
lever.

BELT REPLACEMENT continued  
Tools required: 1/2 Wrench or ratchet and 1/2 inch socket, adequate support for machine.  
1. Remove the Blade Drive Belt (Steps 1-10: Blade Drive Belt Replacement Procedure).  
2. Assure that spark plug wire is disconnected.  
3. Support rear of unit to allow access to underside of the machine near the rear.  
Note: Unit is heavy. Be sure support is adequate to prevent personal injury.  
4. Observe the belt fingers (Item 63), position of idler and belt routing.  
5. Remove the belt finger retaining nuts and bolts (Items 125 and 143).  
6. Remove the belt finger and remove the belt from the transaxle pulley (Item 48).  
7. Remove the belt from the drive idler (Item 105).  
8. Remove the belt from the engine drive pulley (Item 85).  
9. Install new belt on the top (small) engine pulley, drive idler and transaxle pulley using the  
original belt position and routing.  
10. Reposition and secure the belt finger (Item 63) using the original bolts, washers and nuts.  
NOTE: Before installing the fasteners inspect them for wear and replace as necessary.  
11. Reinstall the Blade Drive Belt (Steps 11-16: Blade Drive Belt Replacement Procedure).  
Note: With clutch levers engaged, be sure belt guides do not touch belts after installation.  
12. Replace the cover  
Fig. 17-1  
13. Reconnect spark plug wire.  
14. Start engine and check both belts for proper operation of blade drive system and mower  
drive system.  
WARNING: If the drive belt begins to squeal or slip, do not continue to operate your unit  
until adequate adjustment or repair has been performed. Improper adjustment can cause drive  
belt to slip and overheat, greatly reducing machine performance and transmission life.  
CABLE ADJUSTMENTS  
Brake Adjustment  
The brake control cable is spring-loaded and requires no adjustment; however, the transaxle  
brake is adjustable. When the mower is in neutral and can be pushed by hand without  
depressing the brake lever, the transaxle brake needs adjustment.  
Using a ½ inch wrench turn the adjusting nut ¼ turn clockwise (see figure 17-1).  
With the machine in neutral and:  
Fig. 17-2  
1. The brake lever not depressed, the brake should be on and inhibit the machine from being  
rolled by pushing.  
2. The brake lever depressed the brake should be off and the machine should roll uninhibited  
by the brake.  
Transaxle Drive Control Cable Adjustment  
When the transaxle drive belt slips, the drive control cable needs to be adjusted or the belt  
needs to be replaced with a new belt.  
Cable Adjustment:  
1. Using a 3/8” wrench, remove the rear access door (Item 51).  
2. Using a ½ “ open end wrench, turn the inside adjusting nut counter-clockwise and back it off  
1/8", then tighten the outboard adjusting nut against the support bracket (see figure 17-2).  
3. Check for proper operation. If the operation is not correct, repeat step 2.  
4. Replace the access door.  
Fig. 17-3  
The drive control cable adjustment should be the minimum amount required so the belt does  
not slip when the drive is engaged.  
Blade Drive Control Cable Adjustment  
When the blade drive control lever is depressed, the blades should turn and the blade drive  
belt should not slip. When the cable is properly adjusted the tension spring on the end of the  
control cable will open slightly (only enough for a piece of paper to slip between the coils). See  
figure 17-3.  
Cable Adjustment:  
1. Remove the deck belt cover (Item 81).  
2. Observe the tension spring on the end of the cable when the blade drive lever is depressed.  
The spring should just break open.  
3. If adjustment is required, using a ½” open end wrench, turn the inboard adjustment nut  
counter-clockwise and back it off 1/8" (Figure 4). Then tighten the outboard adjustment nut  
against the cable support bracket (Item 49).  
4. Check the spring tension with the blade drive lever depressed.  
5. Readjust the control cable as needed for proper tension.  
6. Replace the deck belt cover.  
Note: Too much tension will shorten belt and bearing life and too little tension will allow the  
belt to slip.

BRAKE PUCK REPLACEMENT  
Tools Required: 5/32” Allen wrench; 3/8” wrench.  
1. Remove the spark plug wire.  
2. Remove the belt deck cover.  
3. Remove the brake spring (A) and control cable spring (B) (see figure 17-10).  
4. Remove the blade drive belt (C) from the drive pulley (D).  
5. Using a 3/8” wrench and 5/32” allen wrench, remove the  
nuts from the #10 puck retaining bolts (see figure17-11).  
6. Remove the bolts from the puck.  
7. Remove the brake puck.  
Fig. 17-9  
Note: The puck ends are symmetrical and can be interchanged to use a new braking surface  
unless both ends are already worn (Figure 4). When both ends have been used replace the  
puck with a new one.  
8. Inspect the nylon brake arm spacer (Item 44) by removing the belt finger (Item 91) and  
idler pulley (Item 50).  
9. Replace the spacer if it shows signs of wear.  
10. Reassemble all parts in the same orientation as when removed.  
A
B
Note: Be sure that the brake puck is centered and contacts both sides of the pulley groove  
after tightening.  
Note: Before installing fasteners, inspect them for wear and replace as necessary. Be sure  
that when reinstalling control cable spring (B), the open side of the spring hook faces up.  
11. Check the operation of the clutch and brake mechanism.  
The drive belt should be slack and the brake engaged (center pulley will not turn easily by  
hand) when no pressure is exerted on blade drive lever.  
Note: When the blade drive lever is depressed, the brake puck should not rub on the center  
pulley, the belt should be under tension, and not rub on the belt finger (see figure 17-10).  
13. Replace the belt cover and connect the spark plug wire.  
Start the engine and check the clutch/brake operation under power.  
Fig. 17-10 Belt finger should  
not rub on belt  
D
C
when drive is  
engaged.  
Note: When the blade clutch control lever is pressed down, the blades should spin up to  
speed without belt slippage indicated by a pronounced belt squealing sound. When the  
clutch control lever is released, the blades should stop spinning in 5 seconds or less.
