• Place direction control switch in reverse (R) position.
• Press the reverse mode button.
• Raise the blade engage knob, slowly press accelerator pedal, and reverse mow as needed.
WARNING!
Do not mow in reverse unless absolutely necessary. Always look down and behind before and
while backing to make sure no children, bystanders, or pets enter the mowing area. Be aware that
the reverse mode operation is activated when the reverse mode button is illuminated in red and a
constant beeping sound is emitted. Remember that a careless fraction of a second is sufficient to
inflict death or serious injury.
WARNING!
Be especially careful before and when backing with the bagger kit installed, as it may limit visibility.
Always look closely behind and down for small children, bystanders, and pets and move the mower
slowly to prevent back over accidents that can cause death or serious personal injury.
When mowing is complete:
• Stop mower on a flat, level surface. Do not stop the mower on a slope.
• Push the blade engage knob down to turn blades off.
• Place the direction control switch in the neutral (N).
• Set the parking brake.
• Turn the start key OFF.
NOTE:
Reverse mode operation resets each time the power switch is turned to the OFF position.
WARNING!
If the mower emits a beeping noise after you leave the seat, verify that the parking brake is set and
the key has been removed. Failure to set the parking brake could cause the mower to move, and
leaving the key could allow unauthorized use that could result in serious personal injury.
MOWING TIPS (See Fig.19.)
• Keep mower blades sharp.
• Make sure the lawn is clear of stones, sticks, wires, toys, tree nuts, tree branches, and other objects
that could damage the lawn mower blades or motor. Do not mow over property stakes or other metal
posts. Such objects could damage the blade or be accidentally thrown by the mower in any direction
and cause serious personal injury to the operator and others.
• For a healthy lawn, always cut off one-third or less of the total length of the grass.
• When mowing large areas, start by turning to the right so that clippings will discharge away from shrubs,
fences, driveways, etc. After one or two rounds, mow in the opposite direction, making left hand turns
until finished.
• Mow so that discharged clippings exit in the direction of the lawn area that has already been cut.
• When cutting heavy grass, reduce speed to allow for more effective cutting and a proper discharge of
the clippings.
• Do not cut wet grass. It will stick to the underside of the deck and prevent proper bagging or mulching
of grass clippings.
• New or thick grass may require a narrower cut or a higher cutting height.
• Keep the mower deck and side discharge chute clean. Remove grass clippings, leaves, dirt, and any
other accumulated debris before and after each use. Do not spray with a garden hose to clean.
NOTE:
Always stop mower, allow blades to completely stop, and remove the start key before cleaning
underneath the mower.
