Engine is shipped without oil. Fill to the
appropriate level with SAE10W-30 or 10W-40.
3.4 Grass Catcher Assembly
When the mower is assembled with a Kohler
engine, compress the foot pedal down, the
mulching plate will close. Remove the 4 M8×25
bolts attached to the discharge chute assembly
and 1 M8×20 bolt attached to the mulching
plate. Remove chute assembly and mulching
plate. Attach the grass catcher mount weldment
to the pin on the mower deck, rotate the pin 90
degrees, insert it into the hole on the grass
catcher mount weldment. When assembling the
grass catcher on other models, you only need to
remove the mulching plate, not the discharge
chute. (FIG 8)

the mower.

not overfill fuel tank.
