OPERATION
CAUTION: Always stop tractor com-
pletely, as described above, before leav-
ing the operator's position; to empty
grass catcher, etc.
TO USE THROTTLE CONTROL (See Fig. 8)
Always operate engine at full throttle.
•
Operating engine at less than full throttle reduces the
battery charging rate.
• Full throttle offers the best bagging and mower perfor-
mance.
TO USE CHOKE CONTROL (See Fig. 8)
Use choke control whenever you are starting a cold engine.
Do not use to start a warm engine.
•
To engage choke control, pull knob out. Slowly push
knob in to disengage.
TO MOVE FORWARD AND BACKWARD
(See Fig. 8)
The direction and speed of movement is controlled by the
forward and reverse drive pedals.
•
Start tractor and release parking brake.
• Slowly depress forward or reverse drive pedal to begin
movement. Ground speed increases the further down
the pedal is depressed.
TO USE CRUISE CONTROL (See Fig. 8)
The cruise control feature can be used for forward travel only.
•
With forward drive pedal depressed to desired speed,
move cruise control lever forward to “SET” position and
hold while lifting your foot off the pedal, then release the
cruise control lever.
• To disengage the cruise control, pull the lever backward
to “OFF” position, or fully depress the brake pedal.
The operation of any tractor can result in foreign objects thrown into the eyes, which can
result in severe eye damage. Always wear safety glasses or eye shields while operating your
tractor or performing any adjustments or repairs. We recommend a wide vision safety mask
over spectacles or standard safety glasses.
HOW TO USE YOUR TRACTOR
TO SET PARKING BRAKE (See Fig. 8)
Your tractor is equipped with an operator presence sensing
switch. When engine is running, any attempt by the
operator to leave the seat without first setting the parking
brake will shut off the engine.
•
Depress brake pedal into full “BRAKE” position and
hold.
• Place parking brake lever in “ENGAGED” position and
release pressure from brake pedal. Pedal should
remain in “BRAKE” position. Make sure parking brake
will hold tractor secure.
STOPPING (See Fig. 8)
MOWER BLADES -

R E T U R N T O N E U T R A L P O S I T I O N W H E N N O T
DEPRESSED.
ENGINE -
•
Move throttle control to slow position.
NOTE: Failure to move throttle control to slow position and
allowing engine to idle before stopping may cause engine to
“backfire”.
•
Turn ignition key to “OFF” position and remove key.
Always remove key when leaving tractor to prevent
unauthorized use.
• Never use choke to stop engine.
IMPORTANT: LEAVING THE IGNITION SWITCH IN ANY
POSITION OTHER THAN "OFF" WILL CAUSE THE
BATTERY TO BE DISCHARGED, (DEAD).
NOTE: Under certain conditions when tractor is standing
idle with the engine running, hot engine exhaust gases may
cause “browning” of grass. To eliminate this possibility,
always stop engine when stopping tractor on grass areas.
TO ADJUST MOWER CUTTING HEIGHT
(See Fig. 8)
The cutting height is controlled by turning the height adjust-
ment knob in desired direction.
•
Turn knob clockwise ( ) to raise cutting height.
• Turn knob counterclockwise ( ) to lower cutting
height.
The cutting height range is approximately 1-1/2" to 4". The
heights are measured from the ground to the blade tip with
the engine not running. These heights are approximate and
may vary depending upon soil conditions, height of grass
and types of grass being mowed.
• The average lawn should be cut to approximately 2-1/2
inches during the cool season and to over 3 inches
during hot months. For healthier and better looking
lawns, mow often and after moderate growth.
• For best cutting performance, grass over 6 inches in
height should be mowed twice. Make the first cut
relatively high; the second to desired height.
