4. STARTING THE TRACTOR
The operator must have a complete understanding of the placement, function, and operational use of all
tractor controls before starting the tractor. Review the tractor operator’s manual and consult an authorized
dealer for tractor operation instructions if needed.
Essential Tractor Controls:
•
Locate the light control switch.
•
Locate the engine shut off control.
•
Locate the brake pedals and the clutch.
•
Locate the PTO control.
•
Locate the 3-point hitch control lever.
•
Locate the hydraulic remote control levers.
Before starting the tractor ensure the following:
•
Conduct all pre-start operation inspection and service according to the tractor operator’s manual.
•
Make sure all guards, shields, and other safety devices are securely in place.
•
The parking brake is on.
•
The PTO control lever is disengaged.
•
The 3-point hitch control lever is in the lowered position.
•
The hydraulic remote control levers are in the neutral position.
•
The tractor transmission levers are in park or neutral.
Refer to the tractor owner’s manual for tractor starting procedures. Only start the tractor while seated and
belted in the tractor operator’s seat. Never bypass the ignition switch by short circuiting the starter solenoid.
After the tractor engine is running, avoid accidental contact with the tractor transmission to prevent sudden
and unexpected tractor movement.

exhaust fumes can be hazardous to your health.

tractor in gear can result in injury or death. Read the Tractor operators
manual for proper starting instructions.

5. CONNECTING THE MOWER TO THE TRACTOR
Use extreme caution when connecting the mower to the tractor. The mower should be securely resting at
ground level or setting on blocks. Keep hands and feet from under the mower deck and clear of pinch points
between the tractor hitch arms and mower pins.
OPS-R-0001
Always shut the Tractor completely down, place the transmission in park, and set the
parking brake before you or anyone else attempts to connect or disconnect the Implement
and Tractor hitches.
