High-Low Speed Control
The switch ( Figure 10 ) allows the speed range to
increase for transporting the machine. To switch
between the High and Low speed ranges, raise the
cutting units, disengage the PTO and the cruise
control, put the traction pedal into the N
EUTRAL
position, and move the machine at a slow speed.
Note:
The cutting units do not operate and/or cannot
be lowered from the transport position when the
switch is in the high range.
Lift Switches
The lift switches raise and lower the cutting units
(
Figure 10 ). Press the switches forward to lower the
cutting units and rearward to raise the cutting units.
When starting the machine, with the cutting units in
the down position, press the lift switch down to allow
the cutting units to float and mow.
Note:
The cutting units do not lower while in the
high-speed range and they do not raise or lower if you
are out of the seat while the engine is running. Also,
the cutting units lower with the key in the O
N
position
and you are in the seat.

The cruise-control switch locks in the pedal position
to maintain the desired ground speed (
Figure 10 ).
Pressing the rear of the switch turns off the cruise
control, the middle position of the switch enables the

the desired ground speed.
Note:
Pressing either brake pedal or moving the
traction pedal into the reverse position, for 1 second,
also disengages the pedal position.
