OPERATORS
Under California law, and under the laws of several other states, you are not permitted to operate an internal
combustion engine using hydrocarbon fuels on any forest covered, brush covered, or grass covered land, or on
land covered with grain, hay, or other flammable agricultural crop, without an engine spark arrester in continuous
effective working order.
The engine on your riding mower, like most outdoor power equipment, is an internal combustion engine that burns
gasoline, a hydrocarbon fuel. Therefore, your riding mower must be equipped with a spark arrester muffler in
continuous effective working order. The spark arrester must be attached to the engine exhaust system in such a
manner that flames or heat from the system will not ignite flammable material. Failure of the owner/operator of the
riding mower to comply with this regulation is a misdemeanor under California law, and may also be a violation of
other state and/or federal regulations, laws, ordinances, or codes. Contact your local fire marshal or forest service
for specific information about what regulations apply in your area.

Testing Height of Cut
After mowing a small area, it is
recommended thatthe mower be stopped,
the parkingbrakeset, and the height of the
cuttingarea inspected(Make surethere
are no small childrenor inattentive
persons aroundyou when this is done).
The area can be inspectedfrom the
operator'sposition. If you wish to leave
Fig. 33
the operator'sposition, disengagemower
blade drive and stopenginebefore doing
so (See Stopping, on next page).
Twist the mowerheightadjustingknob(D,
Fig.32) or clockwiseto raisethemower
(highercut), counter-clockwise
to lower
the mower(shortercut). A goodcutting
heightto beginwith is 2-1/2".
Generally,if the mower is set too low, the
grasstends to mat and clump. (This can
also happen if the grass is wet. See
Mowing Tips, on the following page.)
If this doeshappen,raisethe mowerabout
1/4"and test the cutagain. Repeatuntila
cleancut isachieved.
If you havea unit equippedwith a 33"
mulching deck, cuttingheight is a very
importantfactor in mulchingperformance.
Set the cuttingheighthighenoughsothat
the deckis not overloaded.Too much
grassin the cutting chamberat one time
limitstheamountof circulationinsidethe
deckand impairsmulchingaction. An
"overloaded"deckwill leavegrassclumps.
Generally,a mulchingdeckthatis setat a
slightlyhighercutting heightwill give
betterperformancethan one thatis settoo
low. (See also Mowing Tips, on the
following page.)
GAGE WHEEL
ADJUSTMENT
The gagewheelsare primarilyan antiscalpdevice. Adjustsothey arejust off
theground. If severalcuttingheightswill
be usedduringa cuttingsession,set the
gagewheelswhilethe mower deckis in
the lowestcuttingpositionthat will be
used.
While mowingextremelyrough, uneven
or hilly terrain, it is best to allow the
mower deckto ridedirectlyon the gage
wheels. In this case, set the gagewheels
so they contactthe groundwhen the
mower deckheight has beenselected.

children.
3. If possible, park the ridingmower
insidea dry enclosure,afterthe unit has

Tips
Never mow in R (Reverse).
Forbest performance,alwayskeepthe
mower deckblade(s)sharp. A dull blade
tendsto tear grass,not cut it.
Do not cut the grasstoo short, especially
in hotweather.Thiscankill the grassand
mayallow weedsto gain a foothold. We
recommenda cutting height of 2-1/2".
Forbestresults, adjust mower deckheight
so the bladecutsoff onlythetop third (or
less) of the grass.
If the lawnis overgrown,or if you must
usethe mower on extremely uneven
terrain,use thehighestcuttingheight
setting.
Unlessa specialpatterneffectis desired
(next column), varyyourcuttingpattern
Pattern
Effects
It is possibleto createpatternsin your
lawnby mowing in specificdirections.
You can"train"your lawn to "grain"in a
specificway by mowing in the same
pattern everytime. Some patterns are
listedbelow.
To producea patternof contrasting
stripes. Mow the lawn in parallel strips
that run in oppositedirectionsto each
other. (ForexampleNorth to South and
then Southto North.)
To produce a "diamond" or "checkerboard"
pattern,first mow the lawnin parallel
strips. Then, withina coupleof days,
mowyour lawnagain in parallel stripsbut
at right anglesto thefirst mowing. (For
example:The first mowingis doneeast to
west and/orwest to east. The second
mowingisthen donenorthto .south
and/or southto north.)
