Stop position to avoid draining the battery charge.
If the machine fails to move the electric brake may still be
engaged. If necessary the electric brake can be released
manually. Refer to the Releasing the Electric Brake (page 31)
procedure in Drive Maintenance.
To Operate the Machine
Move the bypass levers rearward through the key hole and
down to lock them in place as shown (Figure 24). Ensure this
is done for each lever.
Grass Deflector
The mower has a hinged grass deflector that disperses
clippings to the side and down toward the turf.
DANGER
Without the grass deflector, discharge cover, or
complete grass catcher assembly mounted in
place, you and others are exposed to blade contact
and thrown debris. Contact with rotating mower
blade(s) and thrown debris will cause injury or
death.
• Never remove the grass deflector from the mower
because the grass deflector routes material down
toward the turf. If the grass deflector is ever
damaged, replace it immediately.
• Never put your hands or feet under the mower.
• Never try to clear discharge area or mower
blades unless you move the blade control switch
to Off and rotate the ignition key to Off. Also
remove the key and pull the wire off the spark
plug(s).
Operating Tips
Fast Throttle Setting
For best mowing and maximum air circulation, operate the
engine at the Fast position. Air is required to thoroughly cut
grass clippings, so do not set the height-of-cut so low as to
totally surround the mower by uncut grass. Always try to have
one side of the mower free from uncut grass, which allows air
to be drawn into the mower.
Using the Smart Speed
™
Control
System
The Smart Speed™ Control System lever, located below the
operating position, gives the operator a choice to drive the
machine at two speed ranges, high and low. An operator
can benefit from the lower speed setting when maneuvering
the machine in tight spaces or operating around delicate
landscapes. The low setting can also be used to operate the
machine at a high throttle setting and blade speed while still
being able to reduce ground speed to increase quality of cut.
Cutting a Lawn for the First Time
Cut grass slightly longer than normal to ensure that the
cutting height of the mower does not scalp any uneven
ground. However, the cutting height used in the past is
generally the best one to use. When cutting grass longer than
six inches tall, you may want to cut the lawn twice to ensure
an acceptable quality of cut.
