Reverse Mowing Option (RMO)
The Reverse Mowing Option allows for mowing (or use
of other PTO driven attachments) while traveling in
reverse. If you choose to mow in reverse, turn the RMO
key after the PTO is engaged. The L.E.D. light will
illuminate, and the operator can then mow in reverse.
Each time the PTO is engaged the RMO needs to be
reactivated if desired.
PTO Switch
The PTO (Power Take-Off) switch engages and
disengages attachments that use the PTO. To engage
the PTO, pull UP on the switch. Push DOWN to
disengage.
Note that the operator must be seated firmly
in the tractor seat for the PTO to function.
Ignition Switch
The ignition switch starts and stops the engine, it has
three positions:
OFF
Stops the engine and shuts off the
electrical system.
RUN
Allows the engine to run and powers the
electrical system.
START
Cranks the engine for starting.
NOTE: Never leave the ignition switch in the RUN
position with the engine stopped–this drains the battery.
Ground Speed Pedals
The tractor’s forward ground speed is controlled by the
forward ground speed control pedal. The tractor’s
reverse ground speed is controlled by the reverse
ground speed control pedal.
Depressing either pedal will increase ground speed.
Note that the further down the pedal is depressed, the
faster the tractor will travel.
Cruise Control
The cruise control is used to lock the ground speed
control in forward. The cruise control has five lock
positions.
