Starting a John Deere ride-on mower is a simple process that can be completed in a few steps. Before starting the mower, it is important to ensure that the area is clear of any obstacles and that the mower is on a level surface. Additionally, the operator should wear appropriate safety gear, including gloves, safety glasses, and ear protection.
To start the mower, the operator should first insert the key into the ignition and turn it to the “on” position. Next, the operator should pull the choke lever to the “on” position. This will help to enrich the fuel mixture and make it easier to start the engine. The operator should then hold the brake pedal down and pull the starter cord. Once the engine has started, the operator should release the choke lever and allow the engine to warm up for a few minutes before engaging the blades.
