Safety System
The machine is equipped with a safety system
that prevents starting or driving under the
following conditions.
The engine can only be started when:
•
the mower deck is disengaged.
•
the park brake is engaged.
Make daily inspections to make sure that the
safety system works by trying to start the engine
when one of the conditions is not met. Change
the conditions and try again.
Make sure the engine stops when the park brake
is not engaged and the operator leaves the
seated position.
Make sure the engine stops if the mower blades
are engaged and the driver leaves the seated
position.
Battery and Engine Access
The operator cushion can be lowered or removed
for access to the battery and engine.
To lower the cushion, release the latch at the
lower right side and tip the cushion down.
To remove, tip the lowered the cushion up slightly
and lift the back edge up.
If the battery is too weak to start the engine, it
must be recharged.
Jumper Cable Use
1. Connect each end of the RED cable to the
POSITIVE (+) terminal on each battery, taking
care not to short against chassis.
2.
Connect one end of the BLACK cable to the
NEGATIVE (–) terminal of the fully charged
battery.
3.
Connect the other end of the BLACK cable
to a good CHASSIS GROUND on the mower
with the discharged battery, away from the
fuel tank and battery.
To remove cables, reverse order
1. Remove BLACK cable first from chassis and
then from the fully charged battery.
2. Remove RED cable last from the two
batteries.
The mower is equipped with a maintenance
free battery and does not need servicing.
However, periodic charging of the battery with an
automotive type battery charger will extend its life.
