Pushing the Mower By Hand

 1.  Disengage the PTO, engage the parking brake, turn the 

ignition OFF, and remove the key.

 2.  Locate the transmission release levers (A, Figure 7) by 

the rear wheels of the unit.

 3.  To disengage the pumps (free-wheel position), pull both 

transmission release levers back and out so they lock in 
the disengaged (free-wheel) position.

 4.  Disengage the parking brake.  

    The unit can now be pushed by hand.

 5.  After moving the unit, re-engage the pumps (drive 

position) by pulling the transmission release levers 
rearward and inward to release them from the 
disengaged position and then allow them to move to the  
engaged (drive) position.

The cutting height indicators will help you identify the 
cutting height.

 1.  Pull the cutting height adjustment handle (A, Figure 6) 

up and out of the handle lock position (B) and crank 
the handle CLOCKWISE to raise the deck to the desired 
cutting height. Crank the handle COUNTER-CLOCKWISE 
to lower the deck to the desired cutting height.  After the 
desired cutting heights are achieved position the cutting 
height adjustment handles into the handle lock position.

 2.  Repeat the process for the other side of the machine.

NOTE:  Both sides of the cutter deck must be adjusted to the 
same height to insure a proper cut.
