cutting off when operating your equipment
on rough, rolling terrain or hills.
1. Select desired height of cut.
2. Start mower blade by engaging deck
clutch lever.

REVERSE OPERATION SYSTEM (ROS)
Your tractor is equipped with a Reverse
Operation System (ROS). Any attempt by
the operator to travel in the reverse direc-
tion with the deck clutch engaged will shut
off the engine unless ignition key is placed
in the ROS "ON" position.
WARNING:
Backing up with the deck
clutch engaged while mowing is strongly
discouraged. Turning the ROS "ON", to al-
low reverse operation with the deck clutch
engaged, should only be done when the
operator decides it is necessary to reposi-
tion the machine with the attachment
engaged.
Do not mow in reverse unless
absolutely necessary
.

tion.

while backing.
