NOTICE
Towing the units will cause hydraulic pump and wheel motor
damage. Do NOT use another vehicle to push or pull this unit.

1.

Disengage the PTO, engage the parking brake, turn the
ignition OFF, and remove the key.

3.

To disengage the pumps (free-wheel position), pull both
transmission release levers back and out (C) so they lock in
the disengaged (free-wheel) position.

4.

Disengage the parking brake. The unit can now be pushed
by hand.

5.

After moving the unit, re-engage the pumps (drive position)
by pulling the transmission release levers rearward and
inward (B) to release them from the disengaged position
and then allow them to move to the engaged (drive) position.

Storage

Temporary Storage (30 Days or Less)

Remember, the fuel tank will still contain some gasoline, so never
store the unit indoors or in any other area where fuel vapor could
travel to any ignition source. Fuel vapor is also toxic if inhaled,

so never store the unit in any structure used for human or animal
habitation.

WARNING

Never store the unit, with gasoline in engine or fuel tank, in a
heated shelter or in enclosed, poorly ventilated enclosures.
Gasoline fumes may reach an open flame, spark or pilot light
(such as a furnace, water heater, clothes dryer, etc.) and cause
an explosion.

Handle gasoline carefully. It is highly flammable and careless
use could result in serious fire damage to your person or
property.

Drain fuel into an approved container outdoors away from open
flame or sparks.

Here is a checklist of things to do when storing your unit
temporarily or in between uses:

• Keep the unit in an area away from where children may come

into contact with it. If there’s any chance of unauthorized
use, remove the spark plug (s) and put in a safe place. Be
sure the spark plug opening is protected from foreign objects
with a suitable cover.

• If the unit can’t be stored on a reasonable level surface,

chock the wheels.

• Clean all grass and dirt from the mower.

Long Term Storage (Longer Than 30 Days)

Before you store your unit for the off-season, read the
Maintenance and Storage instructions in the Safety Rules
section, then perform the following steps:
1.

Drain crankcase oil while engine is hot and refill with a grade
of oil that will be required when unit is used again.

2.

Prepare the mower deck for storage as follows:
a.) Remove mower deck from the unit.

b.) Clean underside of mower deck.

c.) Coat all bare metal surfaces with paint or light coat of oil
to prevent rusting.

3.

Clean external surfaces and engine.

4.

Prepare engine for storage. See engine owner’s manual.

5.

Clean any dirt or grass from cylinder head cooling fins,
engine housing and air cleaner element.

6.

Cover air cleaner and exhaust outlet tightly with plastic or
other waterproof material to keep out moisture, dirt and
insects.

7.

Completely grease and oil unit as outlined in the Lubrication
section.

8.

Clean up unit and apply paint or rust preventative to any
areas where paint is chipped or damaged.

9.

Be sure the battery is filled to the proper level with water and
is fully charged. Battery life will be increased if it is removed,
put in a cool, dry place and fully charged about once a month.
If battery is left in unit, disconnect the negative cable.
