Deck Lift Lever
Found on your tractor’s right fender,
the deck lift lever is used to change
the height of the cutting deck. To use,
move the lever to the left, then place
in the notch best suited for your
application.
PTO (Blade Engage) Lever
Found on the tractor’s right fender,
the PTO (blade engage) lever is used
to engage power to the cutting deck
or other (separately available)
attachments. To operate, move the
lever all the way forward. Moving the
lever all the way rearward into the
PTO OFF position disengages power
to the cutting deck/ attachment.
NOTE:
The PTO (blade engage)
lever
must
be in the disengaged
(PTO OFF) position when starting the
engine.
Ammeter (optional)
The ammeter registers the rate of
battery charge or discharge. The
ammeter will register on the
discharging side with starting the
engine. It should register on the opposite side
(charging) when the engine is running in the fast
position until the battery is completely charged. With a
fully charged battery or with the engine idling, the
ammeter will not show a charge.
