B&S 8.5 hp Engines:

For the

B&S 8.5 hp

engine the choke control is located on

the left side of the engine (from operator's position). Pull

the choke lever outward and to the rear (counter-clockwise

from top).

Once the engine has started, move the choke control to the

off position and move the throttle control to about medium

throttle position to allow engine to warm-up before going to

full throttle.

To stop the engine, move the throttle control lever to the

full rearward position.

4.1.7 Transmission Shift Lever:

Located under the control console and behind the

fuel tank. It shifts the 5-speed transmission into five

forward gears, neutral and reverse. Shift transmission

only

when drive levers are in the

neutral

position. Shifting

without drive levers in neutral may cause damage to the

transmission.

NOTE: Reverse is "reverse assist" only, meaning when the

transmission is in reverse, the operator has to pull the

unit backward to "assist" with the movement of the unit.

4.1.8 Fuel Shut-Off Valve:

Installed on the fuel line midway between the fuel tank and

the engine. The fuel shut off valve shuts off the flow of fuel

when the machine will not be used for a few days, when parking

inside a building, and during transport to and from the job.

Rotate the valve 1/4 turn clockwise to shut off fuel. Rotate

the valve 1/4 turn counter-clockwise to turn on fuel.

4.2 PRE-START

4.2.1

Refer to the Maintenance Section 5.1 and perform all

of the necessary inspection and maintenance steps.

•

••

•

Fuel is

highly flammable.

Add fuel

before

starting the engine. Refuel outdoors or in

a well ventilated area.

•

••

•

DO NOT

smoke when refueling or operating

the equipment.

Never

remove the cap of the

gas tank while engine is hot or when engine

is running.

4.2.2 Fill fuel tank. For best results, use only clean, fresh

regular grade unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of

87 or higher. Regular grade leaded gasoline may also be

used; however, combustion chamber and cylinder head will

require more frequent service. See Engine Owner's Manual.

Do not

add oil to gasoline.

Do not

overfill fuel tank. Never fill the fuel tank so that

the fuel level rises above a level that is ½” below the

bottom of the filler neck to allow for fuel expansion and

prevent fuel spillage.
