STARTING OR STOPPING THE MOWER

See figure 5.

 WARNING

Never start or run the engine inside a closed or poorly 
ventilated area; breathing exhaust fumes can kill.

NOTE:

 The engine is provided with a shut-off valve. Turn 

the fuel off at the conclusion of mowing.

Starting the engine

1.  Open the fuel valve.
2.  Press the primer bulb 3 times.

NOTE:

 This step is not usually necessary when starting

an engine that has already run for a few minutes.

3.  Hold the power lever bar down against the handle.
4.  Pull the starter grip until the engine starts. Slowly 

release the starter cord so that the rope does not snap 
back.

NOTE:

 It may be necessary to repeat the priming steps 

in cooler weather. In warmer weather, overpriming may 
cause flooding and the engine will not start. If you do 
flood the engine, wait a few minutes before attempting 
to start and do not repeat priming steps.

Stopping the engine

to a complete stop.

2.  Close the fuel valve.
