OPERATION

FIG. 13

TOWING CARTS AND OTHER AT TACH MENTS

Tow only the attachments that are recommended by and 

comply with specifications of the manufacturer of your trac-

tor. Use common sense when towing. Too heavy of a load, 

while on a slope, is dangerous. Tires can lose traction with 

the ground and cause you to lose control of your tractor.

TO TRANSPORT (See Figs. 6 and 13)

When pushing or towing your tractor, be sure to disengage 

transmission by placing freewheel control in free wheel ing  

po si tion.  Free wheel control is located at the rear drawbar 

of tractor.
• 

Raise attachment lift to highest position with at tach ment 

lift control. 

•  Pull freewheel control out and down into the slot and 

release so it is held in the disengaged position.

•  Do not  push or tow tractor at more than two (2) 

MPH.

•  To reengage transmission, reverse above procedure.

NOTE

:  To protect hood from damage when transporting 

your tractor on a truck or a trailer, be sure hood is closed 

and secured to tractor.  Use an appropriate means of tying 

hood to tractor (rope, cord, etc.).

TO OPERATE ON HILLS 

CAUTION:  Do not drive up or down hills 

with slopes greater than 15° and do not 

drive across any slope.

• 

Choose the slowest speed  before starting up or down 

hills.

•  Avoid stopping or changing speed on hills.
•  If stopping is absolutely necessary, push brake pedal 

quickly to brake position and engage parking brake.

• 

To restart movement, slowly release parking brake and 

brake pedal.

• 

Slowly depress appropriate drive pedal to slowest set-

 ting.

•  Make all turns slowly.

USING THE REVERSE OPERATION SYSTEM -

Only use if you are certain no children or other bystanders 

will enter the mowing area.

•  Depress brake pedal all the way down.
• 

With engine running, turn ignition key counterclockwise 

to ROS "ON" position.

•  Look down and behind before and while backing.
•  Slowly depress reverse drive pedal to start move-

ment.

•  When use of the ROS is no longer needed, turn the 

ignition key clockwise to engine "ON" position.

ADD GASOLINE 

•  Fill fuel tank to bottom of filler neck. Do not overfill.  Use 

fresh, clean, regular un lead ed gasoline with a minimum of 

87 octane.  (Use of  leaded gasoline will increase carbon 

and lead oxide deposits and reduce valve life).  Do not mix 

oil with gasoline.  Purchase fuel in quan ti ties that can be 

used within 30 days to assure fuel freshness.

CAUTION:  Wipe off any spilled oil or 

fuel.  Do not store, spill or use gasoline 

near an open flame.

IMPORTANT:

  WHEN OPERATING IN TEMPERATURES 

BELOW32°F(0°C), USE FRESH, CLEAN WINTER GRADE 

GAS O LINE TO HELP ENSURE GOOD COLD WEATHER 

START ING.

BEFORE STARTING THE ENGINE

CHECK ENGINE OIL LEVEL

The engine in your tractor  has been shipped, from the 

factory, already filled with sum mer weight oil.  
•  Check engine oil with tractor on level ground.  
• 

Remove oil fill cap/dipstick and wipe clean, reinsert the 

dipstick and screw cap tight, wait for a few seconds, 

remove and read oil level.  If necessary, add oil until  

“FULL” mark on dipstick is reached.  Do not overfill.

•  For cold weather operation you should change oil for 

easier starting (See “OIL VISCOSITY CHART” in the 

Maintenance sec tion of this manual).   

•  To change engine oil, see the Maintenance section in 

this manual.
