2. Set both steering control levers in the park brake
position.
3. Start the engine and allow it to warm up to operating
temperature.
4. With the deck clutch switch down and the steering
control levers in the park brake position, slowly rise off
of the seat.
The engine should continue to run.
5. With the deck clutch switch up and/or the steering
control levers in the neutral position, slowly rise off of
the seat.
The engine should stop.
6. If the engine fails to stop when:
• the deck clutch switch is up, or
• one or both of the steering control levers is in the
up (out of neutral position), and
• the operator is off the seat, then
• check the function of the seat switch. Replace
the seat switch if it is not operating properly
(is
not opening or closing) and if the cause can not
be determined.
If you cannot locate the problem contact your Hustler
®
Dealer.
Engine Starting
The mower’s safety start interlock system is also designed
to protect the operator and others from accidental injury due
to unintentional engine starting. The engine starting motor
will not engage until:
1. Steering control levers are in the park brake position.
2. Deck clutch switch is in the down (OFF) position.
Start the engine by following these steps. If you encounter
difficulty, contact your Hustler
®
Dealer.
1. Make sure the steering control levers are in the park
brake position and the deck clutch switch is
disengaged. Start the engine from the operator’s
position only.
2. Use the choke, if the unit is equipped with one, when
the engine is cold, or if a warm engine fails to start
within 5 seconds of cranking. Avoid flooding by
operating the engine without choking as soon as
possible.
3. Set the throttle at approximately the 1/2 open
position.
4. Insert the key in the ignition switch and rotate it
clockwise to engage the starting motor. Release the
key when the engine starts.
IMPORTANT: The engine starter should not be
operated for periods longer than 30 seconds at a time.
At least two minutes between such cranking periods to
protect the starter from overheating and burning-out.
5. As soon as the engine begins to run, check to make
certain all engine warning lights are off. If not, stop the
engine immediately and check for the cause.
6. Perform the test shown in the Safety Start Interlock
System section to make sure the safety start interlock
system operates properly.
7. Allow the engine to idle two minutes before advancing
the throttle and/or engaging the deck clutch.
Stopping the Engine
Use the following procedure to shut off the engine after
operating the equipment.
1. Place the steering control levers in the park brake
position.
2. Lower the main deck to the mowing position. The side
decks must be in either the mowing position or the
raised and latched position.
3. Throttle the engine back to low idle, then disengage
the deck clutch. Refer to
Mower deck operation section
for more details.
4. Let engine run at low idle for a couple of minutes.
5. Rotate ignition key counter-clockwise to the “OFF”
position. Remove the key from switch before leaving
the mower.
Moving the Mower with Stalled Engine
If it becomes necessary to move the mower when the
engine is inoperative, the hydraulic pumps are equipped with
bypass valves. Figure 3-6
Before moving the unit, turn bypass valves counter
clockwise one-half to one revolution. The valve on each
hydraulic pump is located at the front left side and is
identified as a hex stud.
The steering control levers must be placed in the neutral
position, to release the park brakes, so that the mower can be
moved.
Do not tow the machine. Move it by hand or use a winch to
load on a trailer for transporting.
When transporting on another vehicle, the mower should
be facing forward and it must be secured.
The safety interlock system should always
function per steps 4 and 5. If it does not function
properly, correct it immediately. Do not operate
machine without a properly functioning seat
safety switch.
The safety interlock system must not be
disconnected or bypassed. Doing so could cause
the machine to operate unexpectedly resulting in
personal injury.
