The deck lift pedal is located near the front of the tractor on the
left of the foot platform and is used to raise and lower the mower
deck. The deck lift pedal has 17 positions including the transport
position.

index hole, then push pedal forward and rock forward to unlock
and slowly allow the pedal to move back until it reaches the lock
rod.

The ignition switch is located on the LH console
to the right of the operator’s seat. The ignition
switch has three positions as follows:
STOP
— The engine and electrical system is
turned off.
RUN — The tractor electrical system is energized.
START — The starter motor will turn over the engine. Release
the key immediately when the engine starts
NOTE:
To prevent accidental starting and/or battery discharge,
remove the key from the ignition switch when the tractor is not in use.
Fuel Tank Cap
The fuel tank cap is located on the right console. Turn the fill cap
to remove. Always re-install the fuel cap tightly onto the fuel tank
after removing.
WARNING!
Never fill the fuel tank when the
engine is running. If the engine is hot from recently
running, allow to cool for several minutes before
refueling. Highly flammable gasoline could splash
onto the engine and cause a fire.
