Thank you for choosing Swisher’s 24” Walk Behind Rough Cut. Before operating your Walk Behind, please read, understand and follow all of the safety precautions and other instructions explained in this manual. As with all power equipment, lawn mowers can be potentially dangerous if not properly used. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS This Safety Alert Symbol indicates important messages in this manual. When you see this symbol, carefully read the message that follows and be alert to the possibility of personal injury.
• • • • • • • • • • • Turn off the blade when not mowing. Before leaving the machine, turn off the blade and stop the engine. Watch for traffic when operating near or crossing roadways. Do not operate the mower if it has been dropped or damaged in any manner or if the mower vibrates excessively. Excessive vibration is an indication of damage. Repair mower as necessary. Dress properly. Do not operate the mower when barefoot or wearing open sandals. Wear only solid shoes with good traction when mowing.
OPERATING YOUR NEW WALK BEHIND The operation of any mower can produce foreign objects to be thrown into the eyes, resulting in severe eye damage. Always wear certified safety glasses or wide-vision safety goggles over spectacles before starting any cutting machine and while operating such a machine. The operation of any mower produces sound waves that are damaging to the human ear. Ear protection is recommended. CAUTION! Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the presence of children.
STARTING THE ENGINE See engine manufacturer’s recommendations for the type and amount of oil and fuel used. Engine must be level to accurately check and fill oil. Do not overfill. • Make sure unit is level, blade is disengaged, and transaxle in “NEUTRAL” • Check spark plug wire, oil level, and fuel level. • Check all electrical connections for build-up of debris. • Move throttle control to “FAST”, or “CHOKE” if choke is needed.
TRANSPORTING • Shut off engine. • Secure in place while unit is being transported. • Unit should be left in low gear to avoid any slight rolling. SUGGESTED PRACTICES • Always operate engine at full throttle when cutting to assure the best cutting performance and proper discharge of material. • If grass is wet, allow it to dry. Wet grass clumps will collect on the bottom of the deck. • Go slow when cutting dense areas. Some dense areas may need to be gone over twice.
SAFETY AND OPERATIONAL DECALS Replace decal immediately if damaged. Order by part number from Swisher.
