Operating Tips  
1072  
Clear the area of sticks, stones, wire, branches,  
and other debris that the blade could hit.  
Avoid striking solid objects with the blade. Never  
deliberately mow over any object.  
If the mower strikes an object or starts to vibrate,  
immediately stop the engine, disconnect the wire  
from the spark plug, and examine the mower for  
damage.  
9. Remove the knob (A) and the bolt (B) that secure  
the left upper and lower handle sections.  
For best performance, install a new blade before  
the cutting season begins.  
D
Replace the blade when necessary with a  
Lawn-Boy replacement blade.  
Cutting Grass  
B
A
Cut only about a third of the grass blade at a  
time. Do not cut below the 2-inch (51 mm) setting  
unless the grass is sparse or it is late fall when  
grass growth begins to slow down. Refer to  
Adjusting the Cutting Height on page 7.  
C
1011  
10. Hold a hanger clamp (C above) on the outside of  
the handle sections and insert a bolt from the inside  
of the handle sections through the holes in the hanger  
clamp.  
When cutting grass over 6 inches (15 cm) tall,  
mow at the highest cutting height setting and walk  
slower; then mow again at a lower setting for the  
best lawn appearance. If the grass is too long, the  
mower may plug and cause the engine to stall.  
11. Position the leg of the bag hanger (D above) into  
the hanger clamp groove and secure it with a knob.  
12. Repeat steps 9 through 11 for the other side.  
3329-170

12  
Mow only dry grass or leaves. Wet grass and  
leaves tend to clump on the yard and can cause  
the mower to plug or the engine to stall.  
Overlap cutting swaths instead of cutting a full  
swath with each pass.  
Set the cutting height on the front wheels one  
notch lower than the rear wheels. For example,  
set the front wheels at 2 inches (51 mm) and the  
rear wheels at 2-1/2 inches (64 mm).  
Warning  
Wet grass or leaves can cause serious injury if  
you slip and contact the blade. Mow only in dry  
conditions.  
Cutting Leaves  
After cutting the lawn, ensure that half of the lawn  
shows through the cut leaf cover. You may need  
to make more than one pass over the leaves.  
Alternate the mowing direction. This helps  
disperse the clippings over the lawn for even  
fertilization.  
If there are more than 5 inches (13 cm) of leaves  
on the lawn, set the front cutting height one or  
two notches higher than the rear cutting height.  
If the finished lawn appearance is unsatisfactory, try  
one or more of the following:  
Replace the blade or have it sharpened.  
Walk at a slower pace while mowing.  
Raise the cutting height on your mower.  
Cut the grass more frequently.  
Slow down your mowing speed if the mower does  
not cut the leaves finely enough.  
If you mow over oak leaves, you can add lime to  
the grass in the spring to reduce the acidity of the  
leaves.

Note: Determine the left and right sides of the mower by standing in the operating position.

Charging the Battery  
Replacing the Blade  
Important: You will need a torque wrench to  
install the blade properly. If you do not have a  
torque wrench or are uncomfortable performing this  
procedure, contact an Authorized Service Dealer.  
Model 10357 only  
Warning  
Examine the blade whenever you run out of gasoline.  
If the blade is damaged or cracked, replace it  
immediately. If the blade edge is dull or nicked, have  
it sharpened or replace it.  
Battery posts, terminals, and related accessories  
contain lead compounds, chemicals known to the  
State of California to cause cancer and  
reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling  
battery.  
Warning  
Charge the battery for 24 hours every month (every  
25 starts) or as needed. Always use the charger in a  
sheltered area and charge the battery at room  
temperature (70_F or 22_C) whenever possible.  
The blade is sharp; contacting the blade can  
result in serious personal injury.  
Wear cloth or leather gloves when servicing the  
blade.  
1. Connect the charger  
to the mower wire  
harness located below  
the ignition key.  
1. Disconnect the spark plug wire from the spark  
plug and hook it onto the retaining post. Refer to  
Preparing for Maintenance on page 13.  
Important: Use only the  
charger supplied with  
the mower.  
2. Tip the mower onto the right side.  
m-5145  
3. Remove the blade, saving all mounting hardware.  
4. Install the new blade and all mounting hardware.  
2. Plug the charger into a wall outlet.  
When the battery no longer holds a charge, recycle or  
dispose of the lead-acid battery according to local  
codes.  
Important: Position the curved ends of the blade to  
point toward the mower.  
Replacing the Fuse  
Model 10357 only  
If the battery does not charge or the engine does not  
turn with the electric starter, the fuse may be blown.  
Replace it with a 40-amp plug-in type fuse. Refer to  
Installing the Fuse on page 5.  
m-6590  
Lubricating the Self-propel  
Drive  
1. Wipe the grease fittings (A) on the rear wheel  
height adjustment levers with a clean rag.  
2. Install a grease gun  
onto each fitting and  
gently apply 1 or 2  
pumps of #2  
multi-purpose lithium  
grease.  
5. Use a torque wrench to tighten the blade bolt to  
60 ft-lb (82 N m).  
Important: A bolt torqued to 60 ft-lb (82 NVm) is  
very tight. While holding the blade with a block of  
wood, put your weight behind the ratchet or  
wrench and tighten the bolt securely. This bolt is  
very difficult to overtighten.
