CONTROLS
PARKING BRAKE:
The parking brake used on the Estate Series
Models is designed to hold the mower from moving and is
not
intended for use in stopping the mower while it is in motion.
Engage parking brake before starting engine.
Do not leave engine running for extended periods of time
without the parking brake engaged. Damage to the drive
system could result.
TO SET PARKING BRAKE:
The hand operated parking brake is located at left hand side of
mower.
To engage brake, pull lever up and to the rear. To release brake,
move lever forward and down.
NOTE:
Always set parking brake before dismounting. Release
parking brake before moving mower.
HYDRO-GEAR DRIVE SYSTEM:
Allows the mower to turn on its own axis (zero turning radius).
Drive levers control braking, turning, travel speed and direction. Each
lever controls one side of the mower.
NOTE:
The pressure required to operate the mower is very light.
A minimum of 1/2 hour should be spent simply
driving the mower without the blade drive engaged.
