OPERATION
The operation of any tractor can result in foreign objects thrown into the eyes, which can result
in severe eye dam age. Always wear safety glass es or eye shields while operating your tractor
or per form ing any adjustments or repairs. We rec om mend a wide vision safety mask over spec-
tacles or stan dard safety glasses.
HOW TO USE YOUR TRACTOR
TO SET PARKING BRAKE (See Fig. 5)
Your tractor is equipped with an operator presence sens-
ing switch. When engine is running, any attempt by the
op er a tor to leave the seat without first setting the parking
brake will shut off the engine.
•
Depress clutch/brake pedal into full “BRAKE” position
and hold.
• Place parking brake lever in “ENGAGED” position
and re lease pressure from clutch/brake pedal. Pedal
should re main in “BRAKE” position. Make sure parking
brake will hold tractor secure.

MOWER BLADES -

to “DIS EN GAGED” po si tion.
TO USE THROTTLE CONTROL (D) (See Fig. 7)
Always operate engine at full speed (fast).
•
Operating engine at less than full speed (fast) reduces
the engine's operating efficiency.
• Full speed (fast) of fers the best mower per for mance.
TO MOVE FORWARD AND BACKWARD

gearshift lever (J).

gearshift lever in neutral (N) position.

ENGINE -
• Move throttle control between half and full speed (fast)
position.
NOTE: Failure to move throttle control between half and

IMPORTANT: LEAVING THE IGNITION SWITCH IN ANY
POSITION OTHER THAN "OFF" WILL CAUSE THE BATTERY
