WARNING
5 Operating Instructions
If you are not completely familiar with the Safety Instruction Manual, read it
now before proceeding with the operation of the mower. REMEMBER
THERE ARE CERTAIN PRECAUTIONS LISTED IN THIS MANUAL THAT YOU
MUST NOW TAKE BEFORE STARTING THE MOWER
.
5.1 Inspect Mower Before Each Use
Do not use the mower if any parts are not maintained in good operating condition. Examine all moving
parts prior to each use. Look for excessive wear, bald drive tires or worn out front tires (normally smooth),
cracks in parts, loose or missing bolts, cotter, linchpin or “hair” pins and replace before operating the
mower. Make sure all safety equipment provided with the mower is in good operating order, including all
warning decals and the operator-presence device, which stops the engine and blades when the hand-
operated Operator Presence Control (OPC) switch is released. To test the OPC, follow the instructions
further down in this manual. Ensure that all parts of the hand-operated transmission control system are
tight and secure. This is to reduce the possibility that the mower could have a loss of control or safety.
Basic Operation
The following procedures are to guide you through the basic operation of the mower. You should be a
qualified mower operator according to the safety section of this manual. If this is your first time, operation
should only be done with the assistance of your dealer on a level area. You should go through each step,
in the order indicated, every time you start the mower.
5.2 How to Start and Operate the Mower
Read and understand the safety instructions before attempting to operate your machine.
Use caution when operating this piece of equipment. Practice operating the mower at low speeds and
without the blades engaged until familiar with the operation of the controls.
Before starting the engine:
Check the oil level in the engine and the hydraulic reservoir
Fill the fuel tank with clean, fresh, unleaded gasoline (use gasoline with an octane of 87 or
greater)
Ensure the fuel valve is in the full open position.
The blade clutch (PTO) switch must be in the OFF position
Position the speed adjustment lever to NEUTRAL
Position the neutral latches in the neutral lock position
Engage the parking brake
Ensure the hydraulic pump bypass valves are fully closed (turn clockwise until snug)
Start the engine – choke as needed
Engage the blades (parking brake must be off) by first engaging the operator presence device and then
pulling up on the blade clutch (PTO) switch. Push the switch down to disengage the cutting blades. **
For best equipment life, engage the blades between ¾ and full engine throttle.
Release the parking brake and move the speed adjustment lever to the desired ground speed setting.
While squeezing the steering brake levers with both hands, release both neutral latches (one on each
handle). Slowly release the levers to travel forward. To make a right turn, squeeze the right hand lever.
To make a left turn, squeeze the left hand lever. To travel in reverse, squeeze the levers up beyond the
neutral point.
To STOP the mower, squeeze both levers up to the neutral point, engage the neutral latches and move
the speed adjustment lever to the neutral position.
