attachment lift Control lever

When using the mower deck, lift the deck off the ground 

while transporting to and from the job site. 

 DO NOT

 cut 

with the mower in the raised, transport position.  
The attachment lift control lever raises and lowers attach-

ments that utilize the tractor’s hydraulic lift cylinder.  This 

lever also controls attachments that use the tractor’s aux-

iliary hydraulics via the quick couplers on the front left and 

right sides of the frame.    
When using a mower deck (Front / Rear Hydraulic selec-

tor switch must be in REAR position), pulling the lever 

back raises the attachment lift.  Pushing the lever forward 

to the first detent lowers the attachment lift.  Pushing the 

lever forward to the second detent locks the control in 

“float” position, allowing the lift mechanism to float up and 

down.  Float is the recommended position when mowing.
For a complete explanation on this control, see 

HYDRAULIC SYSTEM FUNCTIONS.

 

Cutting Height adjustment

The cutting height adjustment switch controls the mower 

cutting height.  This same switch also controls the spout 

rotator motor when a snowthrower is installed.  The 

arrows on the switch correspond to the direction of 

adjustment (UP arrow raises cutting height, RIGHT arrow 

rotates the spout right, etc).  The mower cutting height is 

infinitely adjustable between 1” to 4-13/32” (2,5 cm-11,2 

cm).  When the adjustment indicator has reached the end 

of its travel, release the switch; holding the switch down 

will damage the motor.

 

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. Activates the glow  

 

   

  

plugs on diesel models

 

START 

Cranks the engine for starting.

NOTE: Never leave the ignition switch in the RUN posi-

tion with the engine stopped–this drains the battery.

 

Brake Pedal 

Depressing the brake pedal applies the tractor brake.  

Depressing the brake pedal will also return the cruise 

control lever to neutral.

 

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.  Note that the further down the pedal 

is depressed, the faster the tractor will travel.

Parking Brake 

This locks the parking brake when the tractor is 

stopped. See 

Parking Brake

 section. 

 Steering Tilt adjust (Select Models)

Use the tilt knob located on the bellows to release the 

pivot mechanism and pivot the wheel to the desired posi-

tion. Release the tilt knob to lock in position.

 Seat adjustment lever

The seat can be adjusted forward and back. Move the 

lever, position the seat as desired, and release the lever 

to lock the seat into position.

 Cruise Control

The cruise control is used to lock the ground speed con-

trol in forward.  Move the lever forward until the desired 

ground speed is reached.  To disengage the cruise con-

trol move the lever back.  In the event you need to stop 

quickly, depressing the brake pedal will also return the 

cruise control to neutral.  

2WD
4WD

 2-Wheel / 4-Wheel Drive Selector (Select   

 

 Models)

The 2-wheel / 4-wheel drive selector disengages the front 

wheels in the 2-wheel drive position and drives all four 

wheels in 4-wheel drive position.  Engage / disengage 

the 4-wheel drive control only when stopped or at slow 

speeds.

 Transmission Release Valve lever 

The transmission release valve lever deactivates the 

transmission so that the tractor can be pushed by hand.  

See PUSHING THE TRACTOR BY HAND for operational 

information.

 Fuel Tank

To remove the cap, turn counterclockwise.
