IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Your mower is equipped with a 12-volt
negative grounded system. The other vehicle
must also be a 12-volt negative grounded
system. Do not use your mower to start other
vehicles.
If your battery is too weak to start the engine, it should
be recharged. (See Battery in the Maintenance
section.)
If jumper cables are used for emergency starting,
follow this procedure:
Jumper cables
1. Connect each end of the RED cable to the
POSITIVE (+) terminal on each battery, taking
care not to short against chassis.
2. Connect one end of the BLACK cable to the
NEGATIVE (-) terminal of the fully charged battery.
3. Connect the other end of the BLACK cable to a
good CHASSIS GROUND on the mower with the
discharged battery, away from the fuel tank and
battery.
To remove cables, reverse order
1. Remove BLACK cable first from chassis and then
from the fully charged battery.
2. Remove RED cable last from both batteries.
WARNING!
Lead-acid batteries generate
explosive gases. Keep sparks,
flame and smoking materials away
from batteries. Always wear eye
protection when around batteries.
