: To protect hood from damage when transporting
your tractor on a truck or a trailer, be sure hood is closed

hood to tractor (rope, cord, etc.).
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 OPERATE MOWER (See Fig. 6)
Your tractor is equipped with an operator presence sensing
switch. Any attempt by the operator to leave the seat with
the engine running and the attachment clutch engaged
will shut off the engine. You must remain fully and centrally
positioned in the seat to prevent the engine from hesitating
or cutting off when operating your equipment on rough,
rolling terrain or hills.
• Select desired height of cut.
• Start mower blades by engaging attachment clutch
control.
• TO STOP MOWER BLADES - disengage attachment
clutch con trol.
CAUTION: Do not operate the mower
without either the en tire grass catcher,
on mowers so equipped, or the deflector
shield in place.
REVERSE OPERATION SYSTEM (ROS)
Your tractor is equipped with a Reverse Operation System
(ROS). Any attempt by the operator to travel in the reverse
direction with the attachment clutch engaged will shut off
the engine unless ignition key is placed in the ROS "ON"
position.
WARNING:
Backing up with the attachment clutch en-
gaged while mowing is strongly discouraged. Turning the
ROS "ON", to allow reverse operation with the attachment
clutch engaged, should only be done when the operator
decides it is necessary to reposition the machine with the
attachment engaged.
Do not mow in reverse unless
absolutely necessary
.
USING THE REVERSE OPERATION SYSTEM -
• Depress clutch/brake pedal all the way down and
hold.
•
With engine running, turn ignition key counterclockwise
to ROS "ON" position.
• Look down and behind before and while backing.
•
Move gear shift lever to reverse (R) po si tion and slowly
release clutch/brake pedal to start movement.
• When use of the ROS is no longer needed, turn the
ignition key clockwise to engine "ON" position.
