Setup and
Adjustment
Stand behind the mower
as if you were going to
operate it. Your right hand
corresponds to the right
side of the mower; your
left hand corresponds to
the left side of the mower.
Make certain the drive
cable is routed around
the outside and above
the lower handle so it
does not interfere with
attaching the grass bag.
The chute door has been
designed to move the
starter rope out of the way
of the bag when the chute
door is opened.
IMPORTANT
This unit is shipped with-
out gasoline or oil in the
engine. Fill up gasoline
and oil as instructed in
the accompanying engine
manual BEFORE operat-
ing your mower.
