TO ADJUST MOWER CUT TING HEIGHT 

(See Fig. 8)

The po si tion of the at tach ment lift le ver (A) de ter mines the 

cut ting height.

•  Put attachment lift lever in desired cutting height slot.
The cutting  height  range is  ap prox i mate ly 1" to 4".  The 

heights are measured from the ground to the blade tip with 

the engine not running.  These heights are approximate 

and may vary depending upon soil conditions, height of 

grass and types of grass being mowed.
•  The average lawn should be cut to approximately 

2-1/2" during the cool season and to over 3" during hot 

months.  For healthier and better looking lawns, mow 

often and after moderate growth.

•  For best cutting performance, grass over 6" in height 

should be mowed twice.  Make the first cut relatively 

high; the second to de sired height.

A

OPERATION

TO ADJUST GAUGE WHEELS (See Fig. 9)

Gauge wheels  are properly adjusted when they are slightly 

off the ground when mower is at the desired cutting height 

in operating position. Gauge wheels then keep the deck 

in proper position to help prevent scalping in most terrain 

conditions. 

NOTE: 

Adjust gauge wheels with tractor on a flat level 

surface.
•  Adjust mower to desired cutting height (See “TO AD-

 JUST MOWER CUT TING HEIGHT” in the Operation 

sec tion of this manual).

•  With mower in desired height of cut po si tion, gauge 

wheels should be assembled so they are slightly off 

the ground. In stall gauge wheel in appropriate hole as 

shown and tighten se cure ly.

• 

Repeat for opposite side installing gauge wheel in same 

adjustment hole.

TO OPERATE ON HILLS 

CAUTION: Do not drive up or down hills 

with slopes greater than 15° and do not 

drive across any slope.

•  Choose the slowest speed before starting up or down 

hills.

•  Avoid stopping or changing speed on hills.
•  If slowing is necessary, move throttle control lever to 

slower position.

•  If stopping is absolutely necessary, push clutch/brake 

pedal quickly to brake position and engage parking brake.

•  Move motion control lever to neutral position.

IMPORTANT:

 THE MOTION CONTROL LEVER DOES NOT 

RETURN TO NEUTRAL POSITION WHEN THE BRAKE PED AL 

IS DEPRESSED.

• 

To restart movement, slowly release parking brake and 

clutch/brake pedal.

•  Slowly move motion control lever to slowest setting.
•  Make all turns slowly.

TO OPERATE MOWER

Your tractor is equipped with an operator presence sensing 

switch.  Any attempt by the operator to leave the seat with 

the engine running and the attachment clutch engaged will 

shut off the engine. You must remain fully and centrally 

positioned in the seat to prevent the engine from hesitat-

ing or cutting off when operating your equipment on rough, 

rolling terrain or hills.
•  Select desired height of cut with attachment lift lever.
•  Start mower blades by engaging at tach ment clutch 

control.

TO STOP MOWER BLADES 

• Disengage 

at 

tach ment clutch con trol.

CAUTION:  Do not operate the mower 

without either the en tire grass catcher, 

on mowers so equipped, or the deflector 

shield (S) in place (See Fig. 10).
