Reel drive control knob—Pull out to Engage
Prior To Mowing
Starting And Stopping
Remove all foreign objects from the turf prior to mowing.
Be sure the Greensmaster is carefully adjusted and is set
evenly on both sides of the reel. Improper mower
adjustment is magnified many times over in the
appearance of the clipped turf. Ensure everyone,
especially children and pets, is clear of the work area.
Note: Make sure wire is installed on spark plug.
1.
Assure traction clutch control bail (Fig. 19) and reel
drive knob (Fig. 22) are in DISENGAGED position.

3.
4.
Open fuel valve at right side of engine (Fig. 20).
Turn ON/OFF switch to ON (Fig. 21)
Method Of Mowing
Move choke lever (Fig. 20) to CHOKE position before
starting a cold engine, only if necessary.
The greens should be mowed in straight back and forth
direction across the green. Avoid circular mowing or
turning the mower on greens areas since scuffing may
occur. Turning the mower should be done off the green
proper by raising the cutting reel (pushing the handle
down) and turning on the large rubber covered traction
drums. Mowing should be done at a normal walking pace.
Faster speed saves very little time and will result in an
inferior mowing job.
Note: A warm or hot engine does not require any choking.
To start a warm engine, move throttle control to mid
throttle position.
5.
Stand behind the machine, move the throttle control
lever to mid throttle position (Fig. 19). Pull recoil
starter handle out until positive engagement results.
Pull handle to start engine and allow rope to recoil
slowly. Open choke as engine warms up, if used.
Operating Controls
Important
Do not pull recoil rope to its limit or let go
of starter handle when rope is pulled out because rope
may break or recoil assembly may be damaged.
To operate controls for mowing;
1.
Start engine, push down on handle to elevate cutting
unit, raise traction clutch bail to handle and transport
machine onto collar of green.
6.
To stop engine during operation, release clutch bail to
DISENGAGE position (Fig. 21), throttle control to
SLOW (Fig. 19) and turn ON/OFF switch to OFF
(Fig. 21).
2. Release traction clutch bail (Fig. 23) to DISENGAGE
position and pull reel drive control knob on transaxle
fully out to ENGAGE reel (Fig. 24).
