Meets ANSI Safety Standards
Craftsman Lawn Mowers conform to the safety standard of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI).
IMPORTANT: Your mower features a two step process to engage the blade:
Lockout Lever
The lockout lever is attached to the blade control on the upper handle of the mower.
Press down on it prior to engaging the blade control.
Blade Control
The blade control is attached to the upper handle of the mower. Depress and
squeeze it against the upper handle to operate the unit. Release it to stop blade.
WARNING
This blade control is a safety device. Never attempt to bypass its operation.
Premium Drive Control
The premium drive control is located on the upper handle and is used to engage the
drive. Pushing the control forward will engage the drive. The farther the control is
pushed forward, the faster the mower will propel. Once pressure is released from
the control it will return to the neutral position and the drive will be disengaged.
Mulch Plug
The mulch plug is used for mulching purposes. Instead of collecting the grass
clippings in a grass catcher or using the side discharge chute, some mower models
have the option of recirculating the clippings back to the lawn. This is called
mulching.
Cutting Height Adjustment Lever
The cutting height adjustment lever is located above the rear left wheel. To adjust
the cutting height, refer to Cutting Height Adjustment on page 9.
Deck Wash
Your mowers deck is equipped with a water port on its surface as part of its deck
wash system. Use the deck wash to rinse grass clippings from the decks underside.
Side Discharge Chute
Your mower is shipped as a mulcher. To discharge the grass clippings to the side
instead, follow the instructions on page 9 to attach the side discharge chute.
WARNING
Keep hands and feet away from the chute area on cutting deck. Refer to
warning label on the unit.
Striper
The striper is located on the rear of the mower deck and is designed to leave stripes
on the lawn as you mow to enhance the appearance of your lawn.
Trail Shield
The trail shield is attached to the rear of the mowing deck and is there to protect
the operator from flying debris. Do not use the mower unless the shield is fully
functional and in place.
