MOWERTHEOPERATING
(Autodrive Only)
Hold the handlebar and operate the ground drive clutch lever to power
the mower in a forward direction.
When the ground drive clutch lever is disengaged the mower may be
pushed. This feature is useful when mowing in confined areas.
If the engine stop lever is released the engine will stop.
To make a wide turn steer the mower with the handlebar in the direc-
tion required.
To make a tight turn release the ground drive clutch lever, apply down-
ward pressure on the handlebar to raise the front wheels just above
ground level and steer in the required direction.
To prevent accidents do not raise the front of the mower exces-
sively when making a turn. Never raise the rear of the mower
when the engine is running.
Release the ground drive clutch lever and the engine stop lever.
Emergency stop: Release both ground drive clutch lever and engine
stop lever together.
If the engine fails to stop, move the throttle lever to the ‘slow’posi-
tion and disconnect the spark plug lead.
