REVERSE OPERATION SYSTEM (ROS)

(See Fig. 12)

Your tractor is equipped with a Reverse Operation System 

(ROS). Any attempt by the operator to travel in the reverse 

direction with the attachment clutch engaged will shut off 

the engine unless ignition key is placed in the ROS "ON" 

position.

 WARNING:

  Backing up with the attachment clutch en-

gaged while mowing is strongly discouraged. Turning the 

ROS "ON", to allow reverse operation with the attachment 

clutch engaged, should only be done when the operator 

decides it is necessary to reposition the machine with the 

attachment engaged. 

Do not mow in reverse unless 

absolutely necessary

.

USING THE REVERSE OPERATION SYSTEM 

Only use if you are certain no children or other bystanders 

will enter the mowing area.
•  Depress brake pedal all the way down.
• 

With engine running, turn ignition key counterclockwise 

to ROS "ON" position.

•  Look down and behind before and while backing.
• 

Slowly depress reverse drive pedal to start movement.

•  When use of the ROS is no longer needed, turn the 

ignition key clockwise to engine "ON" position.

TO OPERATE ON HILLS 

CAUTION: Do not drive up or down hills 

with slopes greater than 15° and do not 

drive across any slope.

•  Choose the slowest speed before starting up or down 

hills.

•  Avoid stopping or changing speed on hills.
•  If stopping is absolutely necessary, push brake pedal 

quickly to brake position and engage parking brake.

• 

To restart movement, slowly release parking brake and 

brake pedal.

• 

Slowly depress appropriate drive pedal to slowest set ting.

•  Make all turns slowly.

TO TRANSPORT (See Fig. 13)

When pushing or towing your tractor, be sure to disengage 

transmission by placing freewheel control in free wheel ing  

po si tion.  Free wheel control is located at the rear drawbar 

of tractor.
• 

Raise attachment lift to highest position with at tach ment 

lift control. 

• 

Pull freewheel control out and into the slot and release 

so it is held in the disengaged position.

•  Do not  push or tow tractor at more than two (2) MPH.
•  To reengage transmission, reverse above procedure.

NOTE

:  To protect hood from damage when transporting 

your tractor on a truck or a trailer, be sure hood is closed 

and secured to tractor.  Use an appropriate means of tying 

hood to tractor (rope, cord, etc.).

OPERATION

CAUTION:  Do not operate the mower 

without either the en tire grass catcher, on 

mowers so equipped, or the deflector shield 

(S) in place (See Fig. 11).

TO STOP MOWER BLADES

Disengage at tach ment clutch con trol.

S

TOWING CARTS AND OTHER AT TACH MENTS

Tow only the attachments that are recommended by and 

comply with specifications of the manufacturer of your trac-

tor. Use common sense when towing. Too heavy of a load, 

while on a slope, is dangerous. Tires can lose traction with 

the ground and cause you to lose control of your tractor.

SERVICE REMINDER/HOUR METER

Service reminder shows the total number of hours the 

engine has run and flashes to indicate that the engine 

or mower needs servicing. When service is required, the 

service reminder will flash for two hours. To service engine 

and mower, see the Maintenance section of this manual.

NOTE

: Service reminder runs when the ignition key is in 

any position but "STOP". For accurate reading, be sure key 

remains in the "STOP" position when engine is not running.
