7-3 OPERATION PROCEDURES
During operation, tightly hold the brake handle with both
hands.
Note: During operation, when the brake handle is
released, the engine will stop and thus stopping the lawn
mower from operating.
WARNING! In order to avoid any unintentional
start-ups of the lawn mower, it comes equipped with an
engine brake which must be pulled back before the
engine can be started. When the engine control lever is
released it must return to its initial position, at which point
the engine automatically switches off.
Note: Engine brake (brake handle): Use the lever to stop
the engine. When you release the lever the engine and
the blade stop automatically. To mow, hold the lever in the
working position. Before you start to mow, check the start/
stop lever several times to be sure that it is working
properly. Ensure that the tension cable can be smoothly
operated (i.e. is not catching or kinking in any way).
7-4 TO STOP ENGINE
CAUTION: The blade continues to rotate for a
few seconds after the engine is shut off.
1. Release the brake control handle to stop the engine
and blade. (Fig. 29)
2. Disconnect and ground the spark plug wire as
instructed in the separate engine manual to prevent
accidental starting while equipment is unattended.
7-5 CONNECTION FOR AUTO MOVE
For PM-4602 SC
Grip the self-drive control handle, the lawn mower will
move forward automatically with about 3.6 km/h (Fig. 30),
release the self-drive handle, the lawn mower will stop
move.
For PM-4602 S3C, PM-5102 S3C
The mower is equipped with a speed adjusting system
which can adjust 3 speeds from 3.0 km/h to 4.5 km/h.
Position "
": the slowest position; Position "
fastest position. (Fig. 31)
The step as below:
1. Release the self-drive control handle until the lawn
mower does not go forward.
2. Adjust the appropriate speed which you want.
(Fig. 31)
3. Grasp the self-drive control handle to go on mowing.
(Fig. 30)
CAUTION: Your mower is designed to cut normal
residential grass of a height no more than 250 mm.
Do not attempt to mow through unusually tall dry or wet
grass (e.g., pasture) or piles of dry leaves. Debris may
build up on the mower deck or contact the engine exhaust
presenting a potential fire hazard.

7-6 FOR THE BEST RESULTS WHEN
MOWING
Clear lawn of debris. Be sure that the lawn is clear of
stones, sticks, wire or other foreign objects which could be
accidentally thrown out by the mower in any direction and
cause serious personal injury to the operator and others
as well as damage to property and surrounding objects.
Do not cut wet grass. For effective mowing do not cut wet
grass because it tends to stick to the underside of the
deck preventing proper mowing of the grass clippings. Cut
no more than 1/3 the length of the grass. The
recommended cut for mowing is 1/3 the length of the
grass. Ground speed will need to be adjusted so the
clippings can be dispersed evenly into the lawn. For
especially heavy cutting in thick grass it may be
necessary to use one of the slowest speeds in order to get
a clean well mowed cut. When mowing long grass you
may have to cut the lawn in two passes, lowering the
blade another 1/3 of the length for the second cut and
perhaps cutting in a different pattern than was used the
first time. Overlapping the cut a little on each pass will
also help to clean up any stray clippings left on the lawn.
The mower should always be operated at full throttle to
get the best cut and allow it to do the most effective job of
mowing. Clean underside of deck. Be certain to clean the
underside of the cutting deck after each use to avoid a
build-up of grass, which would prevent proper mulching.
Mowing leaves. The mowing of leaves can also be
beneficial to your lawn. When mowing leaves make sure
they are dry and are not laying too thick on the lawn. Do
not wait for all the leaves to be off the trees before you
mow.
WARNING: If you strike a foreign object, stop the
engine. Remove wire from spark plug, thoroughly inspect
the mower for any damage and repair the damage before
restarting and operating the mower. Extensive vibration of
the mower during operation is an indication of damage.
The unit should be promptly inspected and repaired.
7-7 GRASS CATCHER
There is a level indicator on the top of the grass catcher
that shows whether the catcher is empty or full (Fig. 32,
": the
Fig. 33):
- The level indicator inflates if the catcher is not full
during the moving. (Fig. 33)
- If the catcher is full, the indicator collapses; once this
happens, stop moving immediately and empty the
catcher, make sure it is clean and ensure its meshwork
is ventilated. (Fig. 32)
IMPORTANT
If the position of indicator opening is very dirty, the
indicator will not inflate-in this case, clean the position of
indicator opening immediately.
