ACE, disconnect it from the machine and reconnect
loopback connector to harness connector. Machine will not
operate without loopback connector installed on harness.
Store the Diagnostic ACE in dry, secure location in shop,
not on machine.

Operating Characteristics
Becoming Familiar with the Machine
Before mowing grass, practice operating machine in an
open area. Start and stop the engine. Operate in forward
and reverse. Lower and raise cutting units and engage and
disengage reels. When you feel familiar with the machine,
practice operating up and down slopes at different speeds.
The brakes can be used to assist in turning the machine.
However, use them carefully, especially on soft or wet
grass conditions because the turf may be torn accidentally.
Individual turning brakes may also be used to help maintain
traction. For example, in some slope conditions, the uphill
wheel slips and loses traction. If this situation occurs,
depress uphill turn pedal gradually and intermittently until
the uphill wheel stops slipping, thus, increasing traction on
the downhill wheel.
Important
When operating machine, always use the
seat belt and ROPS together.
Warning System
If a warning light comes on during operation, stop the
machine immediately and correct the problem before
continuing operation. Serious damage could occur if the
machine is operated with a malfunction.
Running the Mower
Start engine and move throttle to
fast
so engine is running
at maximum speed. Move the
enable/disable
switch to
enable
and use the
lower mow/raise
lever to control the
cutting units (front cutting units are timed to lower before
the rear cutting units). To move forward and cut grass,
press traction pedal forward.
Transporting the mower
Move the
enable/disable
switch to joy stick
disable
and
raise the cutting units to the transport position. Be careful
when driving between objects so you do not accidentally
damage the machine or cutting units. Use extra care when
operating machine on slopes. Drive slowly and avoid sharp
turns on slopes to prevent roll overs. The cutting units
should be lowered when going downhill for steering
control.
