Engaging the PTO
Engaging the PTO transfers power to the cutting deck or other
(separately available) attachments. To engage the PTO:
1.
Move the throttle control lever to the FAST position.
2. Pull the PTO/Blade Engage knob outward into the engaged
(ON) position. See Figure 5-1.
ON OFF
Figure 5-1
NOTE:
Always operate the tractor with the throttle lever in the
FAST position for the most efficient use of the cutting deck or
other (separately available) attachments.
Using the Deck Lift Pedal
Push the pedal forward until it locks into the transport position,
locking behind the notch on the front of the index plate. Remove
and replace the lock pin into the desired height index hole, then
press down on the lift pedal and slowly allow the pedal to move
back until it reaches the lock pin.
Starting the Engine
WARNING!
This tractor is equipped with a safety
interlock system designed for the protection of the
operator. Do not operate the tractor if any part of
the interlock system is malfunctioning. Periodically
check the functions of the interlock system for
proper operation.
WARNING!
For personal safety, the operator must
be sitting in the tractor seat when starting the
engine.
NOTE:
Refer to the Engine Operator’s Manual for oil fill-up
instructions and refer to the Assembly & Set-Up section for
gasoline fill-up instructions.

4. Pull the choke control upward into the full choke position
NOTE:
If the engine is warmed up, it may not be necessary
to place the choke control in the choke position.
5. Move the throttle control to midway between its SLOW
and FAST positions.
6. Turn the ignition key clockwise to the START position.
After the engine starts, release the key. It will return to the
NORMAL MOWING position.
CAUTION:

position for longer than ten seconds at a time. Doing
so may cause damage to your engine’s electric
starter.

Do NOT leave the choke control on while operating
the tractor. Doing so will result in a “rich” fuel mixture and
cause the engine to run poorly.
