5. Reinstall and tighten the dipstick (A, Figure 4).
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 the appropriateOperator's
Manualfor recommendations. 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 Modifications).
High Altitude
At altitudes over 5,000 feet (1524 meters), a minimum 85
octane/85 AKI (89 RON) gasoline is acceptable.
For carbureted engines, high altitude adjustment is
required to maintain performance. Operation without this
adjustment will cause decreased performance, increased
fuel consumption, and increased emissions. Contact
a Briggs & Stratton Authorized Service Dealer for high
altitude adjustment information. Operation of the engine at
altitudes below 2,500 feet (762 meters) with the high altitude
adjustment is not recommended.
For Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) engines, no high altitude
adjustment is necessary.
Adding Fuel
WARNING
Fuel and its vapors are extremely flammable and
explosive.
Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or death.
When Adding Fuel
Turn engine off and let engine cool at least 3 minutes
before removing the fuel cap.
Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes, and other
sources of ignition.
Fill fuel tank outdoors or in a well-ventilated area.
Do not overfill fuel tank. To allow for expansion of the
fuel, do not fill above the bottom of the fuel tank neck.
Keep fuel away from sparks, open flames, pilot lights,
heat, and other ignition sources.
Check fuel lines, tank, cap, and fittings frequently for
cracks or leaks. Replace if necessary.
If fuel spills, wait until it evaporates before starting
engine.
1. Clean the fuel cap area of dirt and debris. Remove the
fuel cap (A, Figure5).
2. Fill the fuel tank with fuel. To allow for expansion of the
fuel, do not fill above the bottom of the fuel tank neck (B).
3. Reinstall the fuel cap.

Check / Fill Transmission Oil Level
This unit is equipped with two transmission oil tanks. One
transmission oil tank only supplies oil to one transmission.
The level of oil in both transmission tanks must be checked,
and if necessary, filled.
Oil Type: 20W-50 conventional detergent motor oil.
1. Location the transmission oil tanks (A, Figure 6).
Not for
Reproduction
9
6
2. Check the oil level when the unit is cold. The oil should be
up to the "FULL COLD" mark (B). If the oil is below this
level, proceed to step #3.
3. Before removing the tank caps (C), make sure the area
around the tank cap and fill neck of the tank is free of
dust, dirt, or other debris. Remove the tank cap.
4. Add oil up to the "FULL COLD" mark.
5. Reinstall the tank caps.
6. After adding oil to the tanks, it may be necessary to purge
air from the hydraulic system. If the unit is not driving
properly, see your dealer.
Purging the Air from the Hydraulic
System
Due to the effects air has on efficiency in hydraulic drive
systems, it is critical that it be purged from the system.
These purge procedures should be implemented any time a
hydraulic system has been opened to facilitate maintenance
or any additional oil has been added to the system.
The resulting symptoms of air in the hydraulic system may be:
Noisy operation.
Lack of power or drive after short term operation.
High operation temperature and excessive expansion of
oil.
Before starting, make sure the transaxles/transmissions are
at the proper oil levels. If it is not, fill to the specifications
outlined in the Check / Fill Transmission Oil Level procedure.
Purging Air from the Hydraulic System:
1. Chock the front wheels to prevent the machine from
rolling. Raise the rear of the machine so that the vehicle’s
rear tires do not contact the ground. Position jack stands
under the rear bumper of the machine to secure it.
2. Open the transaxle’s bypass valves (see Pushing the
Rider by Hand for the location and function of the bypass
valves), start the engine, release the parking brake, and
slowly move the zero-turn rider’s ground speed control
levers in both forward and reverse directions (5 to 6
times), as air is purged from the unit, the oil level will
drop.
3. Stop the engine and engage the parking brake.
4. Close the transaxle’s bypass valves, start the engine,
release the parking brake, and slowly move the zero-turn
rider’s ground speed control levers in both forward and
reverse directions (5 to 6 times), as air is purged from the
unit, the oil level will drop.
5. Stop the engine. Remove the jack stands from
underneath the machine.
6. Repeat the process detailed above but with the unit's
drive wheels on the ground. The procedure should be
performed in an area free of any objects or bystanders.
It may be necessary to repeat the process detailed above
until all the air is completely purged from the system. When
the transaxles/transmissions operate at normal noise levels
and move smoothly forward and reverse at normal speeds,
then the transaxles/transmissions are considered purged.
Starting the Engine
WARNING
If you do not understand how a specific control
functions, or have not yet thoroughly read the Features
& Controls section, do so now.
Do NOT attempt to operate the rider without first
becoming familiar with the location and function of all
controls.
1. While sitting in the operator's seat, make sure that:
the PTO switch is disengaged,
the parking brake is engaged, and
the ground speed control levers are locked in the
START/PARK position.
2. Set the engine speed control past the FAST position to
the CHOKE position.
Note:A warm engine does not require choking.
Note:Some engines are equipped with a separate choke
control.
Note:Some engines are equipped with a ReadyStart®
feature, and do not feature a choke.
3. Insert the key into the ignition switch and turn it to
START.
Not for
Reproduction
10
4. After the engine starts, turn off the choke (if equipped),
and warm up the engine by running it for at least a minute
before engaging the PTO switch or driving the rider.
5. After warming the engine, always operate the unit at full
engine speed when mowing.
In the event of an emergency the engine can be stopped
by simply turning the ignition switch to STOP. Use this
method only in emergency situations. For normal engine shut
down follow the procedure given in Stopping The Rider And
Engine.
Stopping the Rider and Engine
1. Movethe ground speed levers to the middle (or neutral
‘N’) position to stop rider movement. Move the levers
outward to lock them in the START/PARK position.
2. Engage the parking brake by moving the parking brake
lever fully back, in toward the operator, and forward into
the locking notch.
3. Disengage the PTO by pushing down on the PTO switch.
4. Move the engine speed control to the SLOW position and

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 7.
7
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
8
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.
Not for
Reproduction
11
Reverse Travel Practice
9
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
10
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
11
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
12
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.
Not for
Reproduction
12
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!

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 a closed structure without
sufficient airflow. 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.
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.
Do all recommended checks and procedures found in this
manual.
Let the engine warm up for several minutes before use.
Storage - Fuel System
Fuel can become stale when kept in a storage container for
more than 30 days. Each time you fill the container with fuel,
addSTA-BIL 360°
®
PROTECTION™to the fuel as specified
by the manufacturer’s instructions. This keeps fuel fresh and
decreases fuel-related problems or contamination in the fuel
system.
It is not necessary to drain fuel from the engine whenSTA-
BIL 360°
®
PROTECTION™is added as instructed. Before
storage, turn the engine ON for 2 minutes to move the fuel
and stabilizer through the fuel system.

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.
