Ignition Switch
Choke and Throttle
The Ignition Switch is keyless and is the Red Button on
the Console located on the right hand side of the Zero
Turn Mower. This controls starting and stopping the en-
gine.
A 4 digit code must be entered be-
fore the engine can be started.
This code will be supplied by the dealer at the time
the purchaser takes ownership of the Zero Turn
Mower.
A code is programmed at the factory for use until
the owner changes it to his personal code.
It is recommended that the owner personalize the
code as soon as possible after taking ownership of
the Zero Turn Mower.
See Personalizing Your Key Code.
PERSONALIZING YOUR KEY CODE
1. Record your new Key Code (1-12 digits) for safe keep-
ing.
NOTE: Only a dealer service call can reset a for-
gotten code.
2. Engine must be stopped and console unlocked (
using
the original code that comes with the Zero Turn
Mower
) and the PTO Switch down (OFF).
3. Hold KEY CODE BUTTONS 1 & 2 simultaneously for
three seconds until the display shows “CHNGE”
“CODE” followed by a blank screen.
4. Enter the new key code into the console. If more than
12 digits are used the display shows “FULL”
NOTE:
The display always shows the 5 most recently
entered digits.
5. After entering the new code, pull the PTO Switch up.
If the new code is unusable, the display will show
“BAD” “CODE”. If this occurs push the PTO switch
down and return to step 1 and try a different code.
NOTE:
If user does not enter a code and pulls the PTO
switch up the display shows “EMPTY” “CODE”.

The Choke provides a richer fuel mixture to the engine
to assist on cold starts. Pull the choke up to engage and
once the engine starts push down to disengage.
THROTTLE
The Throttle controls the engine speed and blade speed
when blades are engaged. To increase the engine and
blade speeds push the Throttle forward and to decrease
the speeds push the throttle toward the back. For best
mowing performance run the engine at full throttle and
control your ground speed with the Steering levers.

6. If the new code is usable, the console prompts the
user to re-enter the code again by displaying: ENTER”
“CODE” “AGAIN”. Re-enter the code used in step 4,
then push the PTO switch down
.
7. The console confirms that the two key codes entered
in step 4 and 6 match. If they do match, the console
saves the new unlock code and displays “SAVED”
“CODE” before returning to the previous display
mode. If they do not match the console displays “NO”
“MATCH” and the user must return to step 1.
NOTE: If no input is received for 10 seconds the con-
sole displays”TIME” “OUT” before returning to the
previous display mode, retaining the previous unlock
code.
