Setup and
Adjustment
Reference to right, left,
front, or back of the
lawn mower is from
the operating position
only, unless otherwise
stated.
Spark Plug Wire
Disconnect spark plug wire from the spark plug and
ground it against the engine. If engine is equipped with a
rubber boot, attach rubber boot to a bolt on the engine.
This will prevent the engine from firing during assembly.
Attaching The Handles
The lower handle has two flat ends with three holes each,
one small and two large. The upper handle has indented
ends with one hole and may have the blade control
attached. See Figure 3-2.
Attaching Lower Handle

handle.
1. Place the lower handle over the handle bracket
assemblies and position each bracket stud into the
top or bottom hole. See Figure 3-3.
2. Secure with the star knobs, Figure 3-3. Each side of
the lower handle must be positioned onto the stud at
the same position.
Attaching Upper Handle
NOTE: Use the hardware in Group 2 to attach the upper
handle.
1. Place the upper handle in position over the lower
handle keeping the blade control handle facing up.
2. Secure the upper handle to the lower handle using the
