(5) from the right and left handle brackets

(6).

2. (Figure 5) To raise the handle, mount the

lower handle (1) in the HIGH (2) position.

3. (Figure 6) To lower the handle, mount the

lower handle (1) in the LOW (3) position.

4. (Figure 4) Attach the lower handle (1) to the

handle brackets (6) with the knobs (4) and

bolts (5).

IMPORTANT: Make sure the hooks (3), are

mounted on the rear door pivot rod (4).

How To Prepare The Engine

Note: Engine does not contain OIL or PET-

ROL.

WARNING: Follow the engine

manufacturer’s instructions for the

type of petrol and oil to use. Al-

ways use a safety petrol container. Do not

smoke when adding petrol to the engine.

When inside an enclosure, do not fill with

petrol. Before you add petrol, stop the en-

gine. Let the engine cool for several min-

utes.

See the engine manufacturer’s instructions for

the type of petrol and oil to use. Before you use

the unit, read the information on safety,

operation, maintenance, and storage.

How To Discharge Out The Side

(Figure 8)

1. Stop the engine.

2. Loosen the wingnut (1).

3. Move the chute deflector (2) to the open

SIDE DISCHARGE position.

4. Tighten the wingnut (1).

5. Remove the grass bag. Make sure the rear

door is completely closed.

How To Mulch (Figure 9)

1. Stop the engine.

2. Loosen the wingnut (1).

3. Move the chute deflector (2) to the closed

MULCH position.

4. Tighten the wingnut (1).

5. Remove the grass bag. Make sure the rear

door is completely closed.

Mulching finely cuts the grass so that the grass

can be easily recycled. Because the nutrients

are returned to the soil, the lawn will need less

fertilizer. To correctly mulch the lawn, follow the

tips below.

SThe grass must be dry. If the grass is wet, it will

be difficult to cut and cause heavy clumps of

grass.

SThe grass must not be too tall. The maximum

height to effectively cut is 4 1/2 inches. Set the

height adjusters so that only the top third of the

grass is cut.

SIf the grass is more than 4 1/2 inches high, two

mowings will be necessary. For the first mow-

ing, set the height adjusters in the highest posi-

tion. Then, lower the height adjusters for the

second mowing.

SKeep a sharp edge on the blade. A blade that

is not sharp will cause the ends of the grass to

become brown.

SClean the underside of the mower housing.

Grass and other debris can keep the mower

from working correctly.

If the quality of cut is marginal, try the follow-

ing:

SSet the height adjusters at a higher cutting

height.

SCut the grass more frequently.

SOperate the mower at a slower ground speed.

SOverlap the cutting swaths instead of cutting a

full swath with each pass.

SMow across the marginal areas a second time.

GARANTIE DE MURRAY, INC.

LIMITEE DE DEUX ANS

Murray, Inc., garantit au premier acheteur que

cet appareil ne présentera pas de défauts de

matière et de fabrication dans les conditions nor-

males d’utilisation et d’entretien pendant une

période de deux (2) ans à compter de la date de

l’achat; toutefois, la présente garantie ne couvre

pas les moteurs, les accessoires (tels que les

chasse-neige rotatifs, les lames chasse-neige,

les bacs à herbe et les charrues à neige), les

transmissions, les batteries et les pièces d’usure

normale (sauf celles notées ci-dessous) ou les

boîtes-ponts puisque les fabricants de ces

pièces fournissent leurs propres garanties ainsi

que le service après-vente dans leurs centres de

réparation agréés. Pour de plus amples ren-

seignements, consultez les garanties couvrant

ces pièces. Dans le cas où vous ne sauriez pas

si votre appareil contient ou est équipé d’une ou

plusieurs de ces pièces, consultez votre conces-

sionnaire avant l’achat. C’est parce que nous

sommes liés aux modalités et conditions notées

dans la présente garantie limitée, que nous ré-

parerons ou remplacerons, à notre guise, sans

frais pour le premier acheteur, toute pièce couv-

erte par la présente garantie limitée pendant la

période de garantie applicable.

Au cas où la batterie s’avérerait défectueuse

dans les quatre-vingt-dix (90) jours qui suivent la

date de l’achat, nous la remplacerons sans frais.

Si la batterie s’avère défectueuse après (90)

jours mais dans les cent vingt (120) jours à

compter de la date de l’achat, nous la remplac-

erons jusqu’à concurrence de la moitié (1/2) du

prix de détail de la batterie en vigueur au mo-

ment du retour.

Les pièces d’usure normale sont les suivantes :

courroies, lames, adaptateurs de lames, pneus,

phares et housses de siège. Ces pièces sont

garanties comme étant exemptes de défauts de

matière et de main d’oeuvre telles qu’elles sont

livrées avec le produit. Toute réclamation rela-

tive à une réparation ou un remplacement de

pièces d’usure normale doit être faite dans les

trente (30) jours de la date de l’achat. Aucune

réclamation mettant en jeu des dommages-in-

térêts causés par l’usure, l’abus et le mauvais

usage ne sera prise en considération.

La présente garantie de Murray limitée de

deux (2) ans est votre seul recours; toutefois, la

présente garantie ne sera pas valide et ne s’ap-

pliquera à aucun appareil qui a été altéré,

abîmé, dont il a été fait un mauvais usage, un

abus ou utilisé pour la location ou autres usages

commerciaux et/ou professionnels (autres que

domestiques). Votre garantie ne couvre pas les

petits réglages mécaniques qui ne sont pas dus

à un défaut quelconque de matière ou de fab-

rication. Pour de tels ajustements, consultez

votre manuel de l’utilisateur.

Pour présenter une réclamation en vertu de la

présente garantie de Murray limitée de deux

(2) ans, retournez l’appareil (ou la pièce défec-

tueuse, si vous avez été autorisé au préalable)

avec la preuve de votre achat au centre de ré-

parations après-vente agréé le plus proche de

chez vous. Pour trouver votre centre de service

après-vente agréé le plus proche, téléphonez au

distributeur central de pièces de rechange de

votre zone indiqué dans la liste fournie avec

votre appareil ou consultez les Pages Jaunes de

votre annuaire téléphonique local. Si vous re-

tournez l’appareil tout entier, nous réparerons

l’appareil. Si nous autorisons le retour de la

pièce défectueuse seulement, nous remplacer-

ons ou réparerons la pièce. En cas de défaut de

la transmission ou du différentiel (à distinguer de

la boîte-pont), la transmission ou le différentiel

tout entier doit être retourné étant donné qu’ils

ne contiennent pas de pièces réparables par

l’utilisateur.

La présente garantie de Murray limitée de deux

(2) ans vous donne des droits spécifiques, et

vous pourriez également en disposer d’autres.

Cette garantie limitée est promulguée expres-

sément à la place de toute autre forme de ga-

rantie explicite ou implicite, notamment de

garantie implicite de valeur marchande et

d’aptitude à un usage particulier que vous en

feriez. Pour de plus amples informations au sujet

Un utilisateur responsable doit suivre

les instructions ci-dessous.

POUR UNE UTILISATION EN

TOUTE SECURITE

Pour les tondeuses poussées ou

autotractées à lame rotative

Conseils préliminaires

1. Lisez les instructions très attentivement.

Familiarisez-vous avec les commandes et

l’utilisation appropriée de l’équipement.

2. Ne jamais laisser des enfants ou des per-

sonnes non familiarisées avec le produit

utiliser la tondeuse. Des régulations gou-

vernementales peuvent établir un âge mini-

mal.

3. Ne jamais tondre lorsque des personnes,

surtout des enfants, ou des animaux sont à

proximité.

4. Garder à l’esprit que l’opérateur ou l’utilisa-

teur est tenu responsable des risques ou

accidents arrivés aux autres personnes ou

à leurs biens.

Préparation

1. Lors de la tonte, portez toujours des chaus-

sures qui vous apportent une protection

complète et des pantalons. Ne jamais ton-

dre pieds nus ou avec des sandales ouver-

tes.

2. Inspectez la zone à tondre et enlevez tous

les objets que la machine pourrait éjecter

sur son passage.

3. AVERTISSEMENT - L’essence est haute-

ment inflammable.

a. Réserver du carburant dans des jerricanes

prévues à cet effet.

b. Remplir de carburant uniquement à l’air libre

et ne pas fumer.

c. Ajouter du carburant avant de démarrer le

moteur. Ne jamais enlever la protection du

réservoir ni même ajouter de carburant lors−

que le moteur est en marche ou chaud.

d. Si une fuite d’essence se produit, ne pas ten−

ter de démarrer la machine et l’éloigner de la

zone de fuite en question : attendez que les

vapeurs d’essence se soient dissipées avant

d’utiliser la tondeuse.

e. Replacer correctement les bouchons du ré−

servoir et de la jerricane.

4. Changer les amortisseurs de bruit défec-

tueux.

5. Avant toute utilisation, s’assurer que les

lames, boulons de lames et positionnement

des lames ne soient pas usés ou endom-

magés. Remplacer les lames et boulons

usés ou endommagés en même temps afin

de respecter l’équilibre.

6. En ce qui concerne les tondeuses multi la-

mes, prendre garde lors de la rotation

d’une lame car celle-ci peut entraîner la

rotation des autres.

Utilisation

1. Ne pas mettre le moteur en route dans un

espace confiné où de dangereuses va-

peurs de monoxyde de carbone peuvent

s’accumuler.

2. Tondre seulement durant la journée ou bien

sous un éclairage artificiel puissant.

3. Eviter de faire fonctionner l’appareil sur de

l’herbe mouillée toutes les fois que ce sera

possible.

4. Veiller à toujours avoir les pieds sur une

base solide lors de la tonte sur pentes.

5. Marcher ; ne jamais courir.

6. Pour les tondeuses à roues rotatives, ton-

dre en diagonal, jamais vers le haut ou le

bas.

7. Redoubler d’attention lors de changements

de directions sur pentes.

8. Ne pas tondre sur des pentes trop abrup-

tes.

9. Soyez vigilant lorsque vous faites face à la

tondeuse ou lorsque vous la tirez vers

vous.

10. Arrêter la (les) lame(s) si la tondeuse doit

être penchée pour être transportée dans le

but de traverser des espaces autres

qu’herbés, pour l’amener vers la zone à

tondre ou pour l’y retirer.

11. Ne jamais faire marcher la tondeuse avec

des éléments de protection défectueux, ou

sans aucun dispositif de sécurité ; par

exemple, les déflecteurs et/ou les rece-

veurs à herbe doivent être maintenus en

place.

12. Ne pas changer les réglages du régulateur

du moteur et ne pas le mettre en surrégi-

me.

13. Désengager les embrayage de lame et de

transmission avant de démarrer le moteur.

14. Démarrer le moteur ou tourner le commuta-

teur sur le moteur avec soin selon les ins-

tructions et en maintenant les pieds bien

éloignés de la (les) lame(s).

15. Ne pas pencher la tondeuse lors du démar-

rage du moteur ou lors de la commutation

sur le moteur, sauf si la tondeuse doit être

penchées pour le démarrage. Dans ce cas,

ne pas la pencher plus que nécessaire et

ne soulever que la partie éloignée de l’utili-

sateur.

16. Ne démarrez pas le moteur si vous vous

trouvez en face de zone de chute.

17. Ne pas mettre les pieds ou les mains à

proximité ou dessous les parties rotatives.

Se trouver éloigné de l’ouverture de chute

à tout moment.

18. Ne jamais soulever ou transporter une ton-

deuse quand le moteur est marche.

19. Arrêter le moteur et débrancher le câble de

la bougie.

1. avant de débloquer et nettoyer la machine de

toute obstruction ;

2. avant d’inspecter, nettoyer, ou travailler sur la

tondeuse ;

3. après avoir touché un objet. Inspecter la ton−

deuse et effectuer les réparations nécessaires

avant de redémarrer la machine ;

4. si la machine commence à vibrer de façon

anormale (vérifier dans l’instant).

20. Arrêtez le moteur

1. lorsque vous quittez la tondeuse ;

2. avant de remettre du carburant ;

21. Réduire le réglage de l’accélérateur au

point mort et, si la tondeuse est fournie

avec une valve de coupure d’alimentation,

couper l’alimentation en carburant après la

tonte.

22. Redoubler d’attention à l’approche de coins

aveugles, de buissons, arbres ou autres

objets qui peuvent obstruer la visibilité.

Entretien et entreposage

1. S’assurer que les écrous, les boulons et les

vis soient bien serrés pour que la tondeuse

soit dans de bonnes conditions d’utilisation.

2. Ne jamais garder la tondeuse avec du car-

burant dans le réservoir à l’intérieur d’un

bâtiment où des émanations peuvent at-

teindre une flamme nue ou une étincelle.

3. Laisser la tondeuse refroidir avant de la

ranger dans une enceinte.

4. Afin de limiter tout risque de feu, s’assurer

que le moteur, l’amortisseur de bruit, le

compartiment de batterie et la zone de ré-

serve de carburant soient débarrassés

d’herbe, de feuilles ou de graisse excessi-

ve.

5. Vérifier fréquemment que le receveur d’her-

be ne soit pas usé ou détérioré.

6. Remplacer les pièces usées ou défectueu-

ses.

7. Si le réservoir doit être vidé, ceci doit être

fait au dehors.
