Background
The Craftsman Walk Behind Mower 917.376153 is a gas-powered lawn mower, produced by Roper Corporation for Sears. The primary features of this mower are its 22-inch multi-cut steel deck and a 6.75 horsepower Briggs & Stratton engine.
This walk-behind mower is propelled by a variable speed front wheel drive system, which is engaged by holding down the operator presence control bar and pulling the drive control bar up towards the handle. It provides an option to either mulch or rear bag grass clippings. The cutting height is adjustable, ranging from 1 to 3.5 inches, which can be modified by moving the height adjusters on each wheel. It is important to check the engine oil before each use and change it after the initial 5-8 hours of operation. Regular inspection of the air filter and blade is recommended, with replacement necessary when they become dirty or worn out.
