Double 3 Owner's Handbook

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.
The mower has a three speed rear wheel transmission system. To
change the speed disengage the ground drive clutch lever. Move the
transission speed control lever to the desired speed (Number 3 being
the fastest position).
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
downward 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 both ground drive clutch lever and the cutterblade stop lever.
Emergency stop If the engine fails to stop, disconnect the spark
plug lead.
To prevent engine damage do not use the mower on slopes greater
than 10 degrees.
