OPERATION
8 Cup Holder
The cup holder is located on the top of the console.
9 Storage Tray
The storage tray is located to the rear of the console.
10 Fuel Tank Cap
Turn the fill cap counter clockwise and pull upward to remove. The fuel cap is tethered
to the tractor to prevent its loss. Do not attempt to remove the cap from the tractor. Fill
tank to ½” (12.7 mm) below the bottom of the filler neck, allowing some space in the
tank for fuel expansion. Do not overfill the tank.
Push the cap downward on the fuel tank fill neck and turn at least two clicks clockwise to
tighten. Always re-install the fuel cap tightly onto the fuel tank after removing.
WARNING
Never fill the fuel tank when the engine is running. If the engine is hot
from recently running, allow to cool for at least five minutes before
refueling. Highly flammable gasoline could splash onto the engine and
cause a fire.
11 Fuel Gauge
The fuel gauge is located to the left of the seat and provides an indicator of the
current fuel level in the tank.
12 Hour Meter & LCD Service Minder (If equipped)
The LCD service minder will remind the
operator of maintenance intervals for
changing the engine oil, air filter service,
low engine and low battery warnings.
When the key is rotated out of the STOP
position but is not in the START position, the
LCD service minder & hour meter will briefly
display the battery voltage, followed by the
tractor’s accumulated hours.
Note:
When the ignition key is out of the STOP position the hourglass symbol
is illuminated/blinks to indicate it is recording the hours of tractor operation,
regardless of whether the engine has been started.
Change Oil
The LCD screen will alternate the letters “CHG”, followed by “OIL”, followed by
“SOON”, followed by the meter’s accumulated time. “CHG/OIL/SOON/TIME” will
alternate on the display for 7 minutes after the meter reaches 50 hours. This oil
service minder interval will occur every 50 hours. Before the interval expires,
change the engine oil as instructed in the Engine Operator’s Manual
Low Oil
Note:
The low oil pressure function only works if the engine is equipped with an oil
pressure switch.
The LCD screen will alternate the letters “LO” followed by “OIL”, followed by the
meter’s accumulated time, which indicates the engine has low oil pressure. This is
common when starting an engine. The indicator will remain active until the engine
sufficiently builds pressure after starting. If it remains on with the engine at full
speed and after a few minutes of operation, stop the tractor immediately and check
the engine oil level and add as instructed in the Engine Operator’s Manual. If the oil
level is correct and the indicator persists, contact an authorized service dealer.
Low Battery
At startup, the battery voltage will briefly display, then changes to accumulated
hours. The letters “LO” followed by the letters “BATT” will display, followed by
the meter’s accumulated time. “LO/BATT/TIME” is displayed on the LCD when the
voltage drops below 11.5 volts. When this occurs, the battery is in need of a charge
or the engine’s charging system is not generating sufficient amperage. Charge the
battery as instructed in the Product Care section of this manual or have the charging
system checked by your local service dealer.
Air Filter Service
The LCD screen will display the letters “CLN” followed by the letters “AIR”, followed
by “FILT”, followed by the meter’s accumulated time. “CLN/AIR/FILT/TIME” will
alternate on the display for 7 minutes after the meter reaches 25 hours. This air
filter service minder time interval will be every 25 hours. On intervals that are
common with oil service, the oil message will be displayed first followed by the air
filter message.

Throttle/Choke Control Lever or Throttle Control Lever
Note:
When set in a given position, a uniform engine speed will be maintained.
Throttle Control Lever (If equipped)
Push the throttle control lever forward to
increase the engine speed. The tractor is
designed to operate with the throttle control
lever at full throttle (FAST) when the tractor is being driven and the tractor deck is
engaged. Pull the throttle control lever rearward to decrease the engine speed.
Throttle/Choke Control Lever (If equipped)
Push the throttle/choke control lever
forward to increase the engine speed. The
tractor is designed to operate with the
throttle/choke control lever at full throttle (FAST) when the tractor is being driven and
the mower deck is engaged. Pull the throttle/choke control lever rearward to decrease the
engine speed. When starting the engine, push the control lever fully forward into the “CHOKE”
position. After starting and warming the engine, move the control handle rearward until
you feel it move past the choke detent. Throttle is not meant to control unit speed, throttle
should remain in high speed while operating blades.
14 Choke Control (If equipped)
The choke control determines the position of the engine choke.
Pull the knob out to choke the engine; push the knob in to open
the choke.
15 Multi-Tool
The multi-tool (a) is located on the back
of the right console. The multi-tool
(a) can be used as a deck lift lockout,
adjust the height of the lapbar drive
control levers, drive control lever
stop adjustment and can be used as
a removal tool with the ½” socket
end. See the Service and Maintenance
section for more information on multi-
tool usage. See Figure 22.
Headlights (Not shown)
The headlights are located on the front of the frame. The headlights are ON
whenever the ignition key is rotated out of the STOP position and OFF when the
ignition key is moved to the STOP position.
Seat Adjustment Lever (Not shown)
The seat adjustment lever is located under the seat. The seat adjustment lever
allows for adjustment forward or backward of the operator’s seat. Refer to the
Assembly section for instructions on adjusting the seat position.
Note:
If your tractor is not equipped with a seat adjustment lever, it can be adjusted
using the knobs on the underside of the seat. Refer to the Assembly section for
instruction on adjusting the seat.
