21" CAST ALUMINUM REAR DISCHARGE WALK BEHIND MOWERS

This SNAPPER Walk Behind Mower uses a handle engine control bail system to kill the engine for the SAFETY

of the operator. These mowers are designed for quick set-up. The checklist on Page 3 should be filled out by

the dealer as the items are checked off and/or performed and the Consumer/Operator Product Registration card

filled out and sent to the Customer Service department at SNAPPER when completed. CAUTION: Cutting blades

are extremely sharp. Wear heavy leather gloves when handling or working with blades. Be careful to avoid

cutting yourself on sharp edges of blade.

STEP 1: Remove unit from carton and unfold handle. Do

this carefully to prevent cables from hanging up or

becoming kinked. It will be necessary to remove

cardboard isolators between the handles and knobs.

STEP 2: Hold blade control bail down and at the same

time, pull engine rope handle and wrap pull cord into rope

guides that are located on handles. See Figure 1.

STEP 3: Tip mower back against the upper handle to gain

access to cutting blade. Remove foam shipping block

from cutting blade. This must be removed before starting

the engine.

installed. The plug must be removed if the mower is operated

with grass catcher. DO NOT start or operate this mower

without the plug or the entire grass catcher in place.

upside down (plastic bottom turned up), insert bag frame

assembly into catcher as shown in Figure 2. Fasten "C"

WARNING

DO NOT over fill battery with electrolyte. Shield the

positive terminal with terminal cover located on

battery harness. This prevents metal from touching

the positive terminal which could cause sparks. The

electrolyte (acid) produces a highly explosive gas.

Keep all sparks, flame and fire away from area when

charging battery or when handling electrolyte or

battery. Electrolyte (acid) is a highly corrosive liquid.

Wear eye protection. Wash affected areas immediately

after having eye or skin contact with electrolyte (acid).

Battery acid is corrosive. Rinse empty acid containers

with water and mutilate before discarding. If acid is

spilled on battery, bench, or clothing, etc., Flush with

clear water and neutralize with baking soda. DO NOT

attempt to charge battery while installed on the walk

behind. DO NOT use “BOOST” chargers on the

battery.

STEP 6: ACTIVATING AND CHARGING BATTERY

Electric start models are shipped with a Battery Kit. The

kit includes a dry charged battery, hardware, harness,

battery charger, electrolyte (acid) and instructions.

The battery requires activation and charging prior to

being installed on the mower. The electrolyte is a very

dangerous, corrosive and poisonous liquid. Follow very

carefully, all instructions and warnings provided with the

kit.

IMPORTANT: Only use battery charger provided with the

kit to charge battery.

1. Remove battery from carton.

2. Place battery in a well ventilated area on a level non-

concrete surface.

3. Remove sealing tape from top of battery, exposing

cells.

4. Prepare electrolyte and fill cells, following instructions

provided with the electrolyte.

5. Install strip of battery plugs making sure that each

plug is fully seated and each cell is sealed.

6. Slow charge battery for a minimum of 18 hours using

charger provided with kit, being careful to observe

correct charger and battery polarity.

7. Loosen bolts that secure battery bracket to deck.
