WARNING
Unsafe Operation Hazard
Do not load this zero-turn rider on a trailer or truck using two
separate ramps. Only use a single ramp that is at least one
foot wider than the width of the rear wheels of this rider. This
rider has a zero turning radius and the rear wheels could fall
off the ramps, or the rider could tip over injuring the operator
or bystanders.
Slope Operation
Slopes are a major factor related to loss-of-control and tipover
accidents, which can result in severe injury or death. Operation
on all slopes requires extra caution. If you feel uneasy on a
slope, do not operate on it.
Control of a walk-behind or ride-on machine sliding on a slope
will not be regained by the application of the brake. The main
reasons for loss of control are: insufficient tire grip on the ground,
speed too fast, inadequate braking, the type of machine is
unsuitable for its task, lack of awareness of the ground
conditions, incorrect hitching and load distribution.
1. Mow up and down slopes, not across.
2. Watch for holes, ruts, or bumps. Uneven terrain could
overturn the unit. Tall grass can hide obstacles.
3. Choose a slow speed so that you will not have to stop or
change speeds while on the slope.
4. Do not mow on wet grass. Tires may loose traction.
5. Always keep unit in gear especially when traveling down
slopes. Do not shift to neutral and coast downhill.
6. Avoid starting, stopping, or turning on a slope. If tires lose
traction, disengage the blade(s) and proceed slowly straight
down the slope.
7. Keep all movement on slopes slow and gradual. Do not
make sudden changes in speed or direction, which could
cause the machine to rollover.
8. Use extra care while operating machines with grass catchers
or other attachments; they can affect the stability of the unit.
Do not use on steep slopes.
9. Do not try to stabilize the machine by putting your foot on
the ground (ride-on units).
10. Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches, or embankments. The
mower could suddenly turn over if a wheel is over the edge
of a cliff or ditch, or if an edge caves in.
11. Do not use grass catchers on steep slopes.
12. Do not mow slopes you cannot back up.
13. See your authorized dealer/retailer for recommendations
of wheel weights or counterweights to improve stability.
14. Remove obstacles such as rocks, tree limbs, etc.
15. Use slow speed. Tires may lose traction on slopes even
through the brakes are functioning properly.
16. Do not turn on slopes unless necessary, and then, turn
slowly and gradually downhill, if possible.
WARNING
Unsafe Operation Hazard
Never operate on slopes greater than 17.6 percent (10°) which
is a rise of 3-1/2 feet (106 cm) vertically in 20 feet (607 cm)
horizontally.
When operating on slopes use additional wheel weights or
counterweights. See your dealer/retailer to determine which
weights are available and appropriate for your unit.
Select slow ground speed before driving onto slope. In addition
to front weights, use extra caution when operating on slopes
with rear-mounted grass catchers.
Mow UP and DOWN the slope, never across the face, use
caution when changing directions and DO NOT START OR
STOP ON SLOPE.
Towed Equipment (Ride-On Units)
1. Tow only with a machine that has a hitch designed for
towing. Do not attach towed equipment except at the hitch
point.
2. Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for weight limit
for towed equipment and towing on slopes.
3. Never allow children or others in or on towed equipment.
4. On slopes, the weight of the towed equipment may cause
loss of traction and loss of control.
5. Travel slowly and allow extra distance to stop.
6. Do not shift to neutral and coast down hill.
Children
Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the
presence of children. Children are often attracted to the unit
and the mowing activity. Never assume that children will remain
where you last saw them.
1. Keep children out of the mowing area and under the
watchful care of another responsible adult.
2. Be alert and turn unit off if children enter the area.
3. Before and during reverse operation, look behind and down
for small children.
4. Never carry children, even with the blade(s) off. They may
fall off and be seriously injured or interfere with safe unit

1. Remove the dipstick (A, Figure 3) and wipe with a clean
cloth.
2. Install and tighten the dipstick (A, Figure 3).
3. Remove the dipstick and check the oil level. Correct oil level
is at the top of the full indicator (B, Figure 3) on the dipstick.
4. If oil level is low, slowly add oil into the engine oil fill (C,
Figure 3). Do not overfill. After adding oil, wait one minute
and then recheck the oil level.
Note:
Do not add oil at the quick oil drain , if equipped. For
location, see
Features and Controls.
5. Reinstall and tighten the dipstick (A, Figure 3).
Oil Pressure
If the oil pressure is too low, a pressure switch (if equipped) will
either stop the engine or activate a warning device on the
equipment. If this occurs, stop the engine and check the oil level
with the dipstick.
If the oil level is below the ADD mark, add oil until it reaches
the FULL mark. Start the engine and check for proper pressure
before continuing to operate.
If the oil level is between the ADD and FULL marks, do not
start the engine. Contact an authorized dealer to have the oil
pressure problem corrected.
Fuel Recommendations
Fuel must meet these requirements:
• Clean, fresh, unleaded gasoline.
• A minimum of 87 octane / 87 AKI (91 RON). For high altitude
use, see below.
• Gasoline with up to 10% ethanol (gasohol) is acceptable.
NOTICE
Do not use unapproved gasolines, such as E15
and E85. Do not mix oil in gasoline or modify the engine to
run on alternate fuels. Use of unapproved fuels will cause
damage to engine components, which will not be covered
under warranty.
To protect the fuel system from gum formation, mix a fuel
stabilizer into the fuel. See Storage. All fuel is not the same. If
starting or performance problems occur, change fuel providers
or change brands. This engine is certified to operate on gasoline.
The emissions control system for this engine is EM (Engine

Driving
Zero Turn Driving Practice
Before attempting to drive the zero-turn riding mower make sure
you have read the
Features and Controls
section and
understand the location and function of all of the unit’s controls.
The ground speed control levers of this zero-turn riding mower
are responsive, and learning to gain a smooth and efficient
control of the unit’s forward, reverse, and turning movements
will take some practice.
Spending some time going through the maneuvers shown and
becoming familiar with how the unit accelerates, travels, and
steers, before you begin mowing, is absolutely essential to
getting the most out of the zero-turn riding mower.
Locate a smooth, flat area of your lawn, one with plenty of room
to maneuver. Clear the area of objects, people, and animals
before you begin. Operate the unit at mid-throttle during this
practice session (ALWAYS operate at full throttle when mowing),
and turn slowly to prevent tire slippage and damage to your
lawn.
We suggest you begin with the
Smooth Travel
procedure, and
then advance through the forward, reverse, and turning
maneuvers.
Smooth Travel
The lever controls of the Zero Turn rider are responsive.
The BEST method of handling the ground speed control levers
is in three steps — as shown in Figure 6.
FIRST place your hands onto the levers as shown.
SECOND, to go forward gradually push the levers forward with
your palms.
THIRD, to speed up move the levers farther forward. To slow
down smoothly, slowly move the levers toward neutral.
Basic Driving
Forward Travel Practice
Gradually move both ground speed control levers — evenly
FORWARD from neutral. Slow down and repeat.
NOTE: Straight forward travel takes practice. If necessary, top
speed can be balance-adjusted — see the Speed Balancing
Adjustment in the Adjustments section near the back of this
manual.
Reverse Travel Practice
LOOK DOWN & BEHIND, then gradually move both ground
speed control levers evenly BACK from neutral. Slow down and
repeat.
NOTE: Practice backing up for several minutes before
attempting to do so near objects. The rider turns sharply in
reverse as well as forward, and backing up straight takes
practice.
Practice Turning Around A Corner
While traveling forward allow one handle to gradually return
back toward neutral. Repeat several times.
NOTE: To prevent pivoting directly on the tire tread, it is best
to keep both wheels going at least slightly forward.
Practice Turning in Place
To turn in place, “Zero Turn,” gradually move one ground speed
control lever forward from neutral and one lever back from
neutral simultaneously. Repeat several times.
NOTE: Changing the amount each lever is pulled—forward or
back, changes the “pivot point” you turn on.
Advanced Driving
Executing an End-Of-Row Zero Turn
Your Zero Turn Rider’s unique ability to turn in place allows you
to turn around at the end of a cutting row rather than having to
stop and Y-turn before starting a new row.
For example, to execute a left end-of row zero turn:
1. Slow down at the end of the row.
2. Move the RIGHT ground speed control lever forward slightly
while moving the LEFT ground speed control lever back to
center and then slightly back from center.
3. Begin mowing forward again.
This technique turns the rider LEFT and slightly overlaps the
row just cut —eliminating the need to back up and re-cut missed
grass.
As you become more familiar and experienced with operating
the Zero Turn rider, you will learn more maneuvers that will
make your mowing time easier and more enjoyable.
Remember, the more you practice, the better your control
of the Zero Turn will be!
Attaching a Trailer
Secure the trailer with an appropriately sized clevis pin (A, Figure
12) and clip (B). See
Operator Safety
for additional safety
information regarding trailers and towing.
WARNING
Towing Hazard
Towed loads can be hazardous and cause loss of control on
slopes.
• The max gross (trailer & load) weight of trailer is 200 lbs
(91kg).
• Do not operate on slope exceeding 5 degrees.
• Reduce speed and use extreme caution on slopes.

in the rear of the bed will accommodate a 2 x 4 or 2 x 6 to help
secure loads during transport.
WARNING
Amputation Hazard
Rotating blades cut off arms and legs. Do not carry riders
(especially children) even with the blades off. They may fall
off or return for another ride when you are not expecting it.
WARNING
Loss of Control and Roll-Over Hazard
Operating with loads in the cargo bed greater than 50 lbs can
be hazardous and cause loss of control and roll-overs.
The cargo bed can be raised to access the engine compartment
without removing it.
To raise the cargo bed
1. Raise the seat (A, Figure 14).
2. Pull up firmly on the rear of the bed (B, Figure 14).
3. When lowering the bed, press down firmly to secure the
rear of the bed in place with the locking clips (D).

CAUTION
To avoid injury, assistance is required when removing or
installing the cargo bed.
Suspension Adjustment (if equipped)
The shock assemblies (A, Figure 15 - front shown, rear similar)
can be adjusted to vary the amount of pre-load applied to the
springs. This allows the operator to customize the ride according
to operator’s weight and operating conditions.
Less Pre-Load:
• Light operator weight
• Softer, more cushioned ride
• Best for relatively flat terrain
More Pre-Load:
• Heavy operator weight
• Stiffer, more rigid ride
• Better handling and greater stability on hilly terrain
To Adjust the Spring Pre-Load:
1. Park machine on a flat, level surface. Disengage the PTO,
pivot the ground speed levers out to the START/ PARK
position, and stop the engine.
2. Turn the pre-load adjustment collar (B, Figure 15) to a higher
notch (-) to decrease the pre-load, or to a lower notch (+)
to increase the pre-load. Make sure all shocks are set to
the same amount of pre-load.

Storage
WARNING
Fire and Explosion Hazard
Never store the unit (with fuel) in an enclosed, unventilated
structure. Fuel vapors can travel to an ignition source (such
as a furnace, water heater, etc.) and cause an explosion. Fuel
vapor is also toxic to humans and animals.
When Storing Fuel Or Equipment With Fuel in Tank
• Store away from furnaces, stoves, water heaters, or other
appliances that have pilot lights or other ignition sources
because they can ignite fuel vapors.
Equipment
Disengage the PTO, lock the ground speed levers in the
START/PARK position, and remove the key.
Battery life will be increased if it is removed. Put in a cool, dry
place and keep fully charged during storage. If the battery is
left in the unit, disconnect the negative cable.
Fuel System
Fuel can become stale when stored over 30 days. Stale fuel
causes acid and gum deposits to form in the fuel system or on
essential carburetor parts. To keep fuel fresh, use Briggs &
Stratton® Advanced Formula Fuel Treatment & Stabilizer,
available wherever Briggs & Stratton genuine service parts are
sold.
There is no need to drain gasoline from the engine if a fuel
stabilizer is added according to instructions. Run the engine for
2 minutes to circulate the stabilizer throughout the fuel system.
The engine and fuel can then be stored up to 24 months.
18
Not for
Reproduction
If gasoline in the tank has not been treated with a fuel stabilizer,
it must be drained into an approved container. Run the engine
until it stops from lack of fuel. The use of a fuel stabilizer in the
storage container is recommended to maintain freshness.
Engine Oil
While the engine is still warm, change the engine oil.
Before starting the unit after it has been stored:
• Check all fluid levels. Check all maintenance items.
• Perform all recommended checks and procedures found in
this manual.

Power Ratings
The gross power rating for individual gasoline engine models is labeled in accordance with SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers)
code J1940 Small Engine Power & Torque Rating Procedure, and is rated in accordance with SAE J1995. Torque values are
derived at 2600 RPM for those engines with “rpm” called out on the label and 3060 RPM for all others; horsepower values are
derived at 3600 RPM. The gross power curves can be viewed at www.BRIGGSandSTRATTON.COM. Net power values are
taken with exhaust and air cleaner installed whereas gross power values are collected without these attachments. Actual gross
engine power will be higher than net engine power and is affected by, among other things, ambient operating conditions and
engine-to-engine variability. Given the wide array of products on which engines are placed, the gasoline engine may not develop
the rated gross power when used in a given piece of power equipment. This difference is due to a variety of factors including,
but not limited to, the variety of engine components (air cleaner, exhaust, charging, cooling, carburetor, fuel pump, etc.), application
limitations, ambient operating conditions (temperature, humidity, altitude), and engine-to-engine variability. Due to manufacturing
and capacity limitations, Briggs & Stratton may substitute an engine of higher rated power for this engine.
Note:
The engine information contained in this manual applies
to Briggs & Stratton engines only. For information regarding
non-Briggs engines, refer to the engine manual supplied with
your unit.
