DEALER SET-UP INSTRUCTIONS for SNAPPER

21" REAR DISCHARGE COMMERCIAL 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 4 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. Remove packing

material from unit and unfold handles. Do this carefully to
prevent cables from hanging up or becoming kinked.

STEP 2:

The bolts attaching the lower handle to the

handle brackets are for shipping purposes only. Remove
those bolts, and insert two curved head bolts out through
each handle bracket and lower handle tube, securing
with internal lock washers and nylon lock nuts. Tighten
securely. See Figure 1.

STEP 3:

Remove the two shipping bolts (one each side)

attaching the upper handle to the lower handle. Replace
each with a curved head bolt, inserting out through each
side, and securing with an internal lock washer and a
nylon lock nut. Tighten securely. See Figure 1.

STEP 4:

Secure control cables along each side of handle

assembly with four cable clips, positioning them as
shown in Figure 1. Make sure that cables are set into
relief loops in cable clips. Once clips are installed, make
sure that all controls operate without binding.

STEP 5:

Pull blade control bail against handle and at the

same time, pull engine rope handle and slip pull cord into
rope guide located on handle. See Figure 2.

STEP 6:

Install Operator Console onto upper handle with

four 1/4-20 x 1/2” torx screws. Also, firmly press control
knobs onto engine speed and ground speed control levers.
(NOTE: Both knobs are identical.) See Figure 2.

FIGURE 3

STEP 8:

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.
