Parking Brake
The parking brake functions by locking a detent arm
to a cog in the hydraulic motor rotor. Moving the
lever
FORWARD engages
the parking brake; mov-
ing the lever
BACKWARD releases
the brake.
IMPORTANT:
Stop the tractor completely before
engaging the parking brake. The parking brake
uses a positive mechanical lock similar to the
PARK
position on an automotive automatic transmission.
If the tractor is moving when the brake is engaged,
it will result in sudden stoppage and possible inter-
nal damage to the transaxle.
NOTE:
If pressure on the parking brake (e.g.,
parked on a hill) makes it impossible to release the
parking brake with the parking brake lever, move the
mower gently forward or backward to allow the
brake detent to release.

Transaxle Lockout Arms
The transaxle lockout arms disengage the transax-
les. By
lifting
the arms up and locking them into
place with the shoulder on the arm in the chassis
notch, the transaxles are released to permit free-
wheeling. By releasing the arms and
recessing
them back toward the chassis, the transaxles are
engaged for normal operation. The transaxle arms
in the
LOCKOUT
position are used to enable mov-
ing the machine without the engine running (e.g., for
service). Refer to
TRANSAXLE LOCKOUTS
in this
section for operating instructions.
NOTE:
The transaxle lockout arms ends should be
completely retracted against the chassis, otherwise
operation of the transaxle may be erratic.

Engine Service Light
The engine service light indicates that the engine
Electronic Control Unit (ECU) has detected a fault in
the engine performance. When this light illuminates
during operation, contact an authorized Kohler Ser-
vice dealer to diagnose the fault.
IMPORTANT:
Continued operation of the engine
with an illuminated service engine soon light will re-
sult in sub-standard performance and
MAY
cause
engine damage if not corrected as soon as possible.
Circuit Breaker
One manual reset circuit breaker is located on the
right front of the body. It has a button that pops out
if the circuit breaker trips. The 20 amp circuit break-
er protects the safety and ignition switch circuits.
