ahhahahahah that was a good one.!
Answer
Do you have the Black and Decker (electric) OR the Craftsman (gas).
Both require turning the key lifting the lever the Craftsman also requires you hold the lever while pulling the cord. The B&D needs to have the battery charged the Craftsman needs gas !
To cut the lawn.. Never cut it lower then 2 1/2 inches in the cooler weather and let it go to 3" in the warmer weather. This will keep moisture in the lawn so you don't have to water as much. Never cut more then 1/3 of the height of the lawn.
Normally you make a straight path then on the way back split the path in 1/2 with just mowed and then next strip. Doing the 1/2 split insures the errant grass gets clipped and stray grass sucked into the bag. Alternate how you mow each time north to south one time east to west the next (or diagonally). Alternating the path will prevent graining.
Every other time let the clippings go on the lawn rather then the bag this will add needed nitrogen to the lawn as it decomposes.
Never cut a wet lawn.
Start the mower on the driveway or another rock free flat area.
Cut the lawn when the sun isn't going to fry you Early AM or Late afternoon.
Always clean gunk out of the bottom of the mower before storing.
Walk at a normal pace behind the mower and don't let it run in one spot without moving it.
Don't drive over tree stumps or rocks or toys or the neighbors cat it pits the blade and then your grass gets shreaded.
Keep little kids 10 feet away if the come closer turn off the mower.
Always mow forward never ever never backward.
Wear crappy sturdy shoes.
Have copious amounts of beer or icetea available on warmer days.
Don't feed the lawnmower after midnight.
Sharpen the blade once a year (more often if you drive over the neighbors cat) don't put it back on backwards.
Never leave it running if you are going even a foot away from it. The lever...Called the deadmans lever will stop the mower when you let go..make sure you pull the key.
If this is the electric model store the battery seperate from the mower.

10 yr old Briggs & Stratton 5HP Quantum Lawn Mower. How to replace wire that stops mower?
Tim
This wire is connected to a bar near to where your hands go to push the mower, that when you let go of it, the mower goes off. I guess it's an emergency safety feature.
Answer
I like to let the safety bar hang down below the handle, some folk like it to be above the handle, anyway the first thing you do is take the old one off and take it to sears to match it up. Replace the cable at the motor first then slide the S connector into the safety bar hole sideways and then twist it. Simple and easy to fix. Don't try and defeat this feature, I have toeless friends that live on the river. Cutting the grass near the bank involves letting the mower go all the way down to the waters edge and sometimes good old boys have one too many beers in em when mowing during summer. After a full day of water sking the last thang you want to do is cut the grass. Not having that feature could cause serious injury.
