WARNING
Do NOT load this zero-turn rider on a trailer or truck using
two separate ramps. Only use a single ramp that is at least
one foot wider than the width of the rear wheels of this rider.
This rider has a zero turning radius and the rear wheels
could fall off the ramps, or the rider could tip over injuring
the operator or bystanders.
Checks Before Starting
• Check that the crankcase is filled to the full mark on
the engine oil dipstick. If necessary, add oil through
the engine oil fill. See the engine operator’s manual
for instructions, engine oil dipstick location, and oil
recommendations.
• Check the radiator fluid level. See engine operator's
manual for instructions.
• Check the hydraulic oil level.
• Make sure all nuts, bolts, screws and pins are in place
and tight.
• Adjust the seat position and make certain you can reach
all controls from the operator's position.
• Fill the fuel tanks with fresh fuel. Refer to engine manual
for fuel recommendations.
Priming the Fuel System
NOTICE
Do NOT crank the engine continuously for more than thirty
(30) seconds.
Allow the starting motor to cool for two (2) minutes before
cranking the engine again.
WARNING
Fuel leaked or spilled onto hot surfaces or electrical
components can cause a fire. To help prevent possible
injury, turn the ignition switch OFF when changing fuel
filters or water separator element. Clean up fuel spills
immediately.
If air enters the fuel system, the air must be purged from the
fuel system before the engine can be started.
The fuel system must be primed before the first use, after any
fuel filter maintenance is performed, or if the fuel system is
run dry.
1. Ensure that the fuel tanks are full and all fuel lines are
unobstructed.
2. Loosen the vent screw (A, Figure 14) on the water
separator.

3. Turn the ignition switch to the RUN/HEAT position.
4. The ignition switch will allow the electric priming pump
to operate. When fuel free from air comes from the vent
screw, tighten the vent screw to a torque of 24 Nm (212
in-lbs). Then, operate the electric priming pump for two
(2) minutes.
5. Turn the key switch to the OFF position. The fuel system
will now be primed and the engine should be able to start.
6. Wipe up any spilled fuel.
7. Turn the key switch to the START position to crank the
engine. After the engine has started, operate the engine
at low idle for a minimum of five (5) minutes. For constant
engine speed do not apply a load for five (5) minutes.
Note: Operating the engine for this period of time will help
ensure that the fuel system is free of air. Do NOT loosen the
high-pressure fuel lines to purge air from the fuel system.
8. Ensure that the fuel system is free from leaks.
Starting the Engine
WARNING
• If you do not understand how a specific control
functions, or have not yet thoroughly read the Features
and Controls section, do so now.
• Do NOT attempt to operate the zero-turn riding mower
without first becoming familiar with the location and
function of all controls.
WARNING
Do not use aerosol types of starting aids such as ether.
Such use could result in an explosion and personal injury.
1. While sitting in the operator's seat, engage the parking
brake, make sure that the PTO switch is disengaged, and
the ground speed control levers are locked in the neutral
position.
