Reverse Mowing Option (RMO)
WARNING
The engine will shut off if the reverse ground speed
pedal is depressed while the PTO is on and the RMO
has not been activated. The operator should always
turn the PTO off prior to driving across on roads, paths
or any area that maybe used by other vehicles. Sudden
loss of drive could create a hazard.
WARNING
Mowing in reverse can be hazardous to bystanders.
Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert
to the presence of children. Never activate the RMO if
children are present. Children are often attracted to the
unit and the mowing activity.
The Reverse Mowing Option (RMO) allows the operator
to mow in reverse (see Features and Controls). To
activate, turn the RMO key after the PTO is engaged. The
L.E.D. light will illuminate, and the operator can then mow
in reverse. Each time the PTO is engaged the RMO needs
to be reactivated if desired. The key should be removed to
restrict access to the RMO.
Attachment Operation in Reverse
If an operator chooses to operate a PTO driven attachment
in reverse, the RMO system can be used. To use the
Reverse Mowing Option (RMO) turn the RMO key after
the PTO is engaged. The L.E.D. light will illuminate, and
the operator can then operate the attachment in reverse.
Each time the PTO is disengaged the RMO needs to be
reactivated if desired. The key should be removed to restrict
access to the RMO feature.
4-Wheel Drive Operation (Select Models)
When operating in 4WD without a mower deck installed on
the tractor, it is recommended you install rear wheel weights
to increase stability.
Pushing the Tractor by Hand

2. Push the transmission release (A, Figure 6) forward and
