OWING

DANGER:

THOROUGHLY INSPECT THE AREA WHERE THE MOWER IS TO BE USED.

LOOK FOR ITEMS SUCH AS STONES, STICKS, WIRE, AND OTHER FOREIGN OBJECTS. WHEN

STRUCK BY THE MOWER, THESE AND OTHER OBJECTS MAY BECOME PROJECTILES THAT

COULD LEAD TO SERIOUS INJURY AND/OR DEATH. CLEAR AREA OF ALL DEBRIS AND KEEP

PEOPLE AND PETS AWAY.

DANGER:

DO NOT OPERATE THE MOWER WITH DEFECTIVE GUARDS OR SHIELDS. DO

NOT OPERATE THE MOWER WITHOUT THE SAFETY DEVICES SECURELY IN PLACE.

For the highest quality of cut and performance, mow with the engine at full throttle. Quality of cut may

be determined by the ground speed and speed of the mower. Generally, the slower the mower travels

across the terrain, the better the cut.

1. With the engine running and the mower placed at the beginning of the area to be mowed, make

sure the left control level is down and out of the neutral lock position.

2. Push the Blade Control Lever forward to the “On” position to engage the blades.

3. To disengage blades, come to a complete stop and pull the Blade Control Lever to the “Off”

position.

OVING THE MOWER WITH THE ENGINE OFF

1. Engage the Parking Brake Lever by moving it to the “On” position.

2. Engage the Neutral Lever by moving it in the direction of the arrow.

the engine.

5. Before starting the mower, make sure the hydro transmission is completely closed, the parking

brake engaged, and the neutral lever disengaged.

ARKING THE MOWER

Pull the Parking Break Lever to the “On” position. NOTE: Gently engage the braking mechanism.
