McCulloch M14597H Operator's Manual

To start the McCulloch M14597H Lawn Mower, first ensure that the fuel tank is filled and the oil level is adequate. Next, press the primer bulb 3-5 times, set the throttle to the 'fast' position, and pull the starter cord firmly.
If the lawn mower does not start, check if there is enough fuel and oil. Ensure the spark plug is clean and properly connected. Additionally, examine the air filter for clogs and clean or replace it if necessary.
It is recommended to change the oil in your McCulloch M14597H Lawn Mower after the first 5 hours of use, and then every 25 hours of operation or at least once per mowing season.
The McCulloch M14597H Lawn Mower is designed to run on clean, fresh, unleaded gasoline with a minimum octane rating of 87. Avoid using gasoline with more than 10% ethanol.
To adjust the cutting height, locate the height adjustment lever on each wheel. Move the levers to the desired position to achieve uniform cutting height across all wheels.
Inspect the mower blades regularly for sharpness, damage, or wear. Sharpen the blades at least once per mowing season or replace them if they are damaged or excessively worn.
To clean the air filter, remove the cover, take out the filter, and wash it with warm soapy water. Allow it to dry completely before reinstalling, or replace it if it is too dirty or damaged.
Excessive vibration can be caused by an unbalanced or damaged blade. Check the blade for damage and ensure it is properly attached. Tighten any loose parts and inspect for debris that may cause imbalance.
For off-season storage, clean the mower thoroughly, drain the fuel tank, change the oil, and remove the spark plug. Store the mower in a dry, sheltered area to protect it from the elements.
Check the drive belt for wear or damage, ensuring it is properly tensioned. Inspect the cable connections for any disconnections or damage. Replace any faulty parts as necessary.
