parking
brake.

Slowly depress
forward
(K) or reverse
(L)
drive
pedal to begin
movement.
Ground

TO USE CRUISE
CONTROL
The cruise
control
feature
can be used for
forward
travel
only.
SYSTEM
CHARACTERISTICS
The
cruise
control
should
only
be used
while
mowing
or transporting
on relatively
smooth,
straight
surfaces.
Other
conditions
such as trimming
at slow speeds
may cause
the cruise
control
to disengage.
Do not use
the cruise
control
on slopes,
rough
tertian
or while trimmimg
or turning.
• With forward
drive pedal
(K) depressed

then release
the lever.
To disengage
the cruise control,
depress
the
brake
pedal
or tap on forward
drive
pedal.
TO ADJUST
MOWER
CUTTING
HEIGHT
The position
of the attachment
lift lever
(A)
determines
the cutting
height.
The cutting
height
range is approximately
1
to 4" (25,4 to 101,6
mm).
The heights
are
measured
from the ground
to the blade tip
with the engine
not running.
These
heights
are approximate
and may vary
depending
upon
soil
conditions,
height
of grass
and
types
of grass
being
mowed.
• The average
lawn should
be cutto approxi-
mately
2-1/2"
(63,5
mm) during
the cool
season
and to over 3" (76,2
mm) during
hot months.
For healthier
and better look-
ing lawns,
mow often and after moderate
growth.
• For best cutting
performance,
grass over
6" (152,4
mm) in height
should
be mowed
twice.
Make the first cut relatively
high; the
second
to desired
height.
TO ADJUST
GAUGE
WHEELS
Gauge
wheels
are properly
adjusted
when
they are slightly
offthe
ground
when
mower
is at the desired
cutting
height
in operating
position.
Gauge wheels
then keep the deck
in proper
position
to help prevent
scalping
in most terrain
conditions.
NOTE:
Adjust
gauge wheels
with tractor
on
a flat level surface.
1. Adjust
mower
to desired
cutting
height
(See "TO ADJUST
MOWER
CUTTING
HEIGHT"
in this section
of manual).
2.
With mower
in desired
height
of cut posi-
tion, gauge wheels
should
be assembled
so they are slightly
offthe
ground.
Install
gauge wheel in appropriate
hole. Tighten
securely.
3.
Repeat
for all, installing
gauge
wheel
in
same adjustment
hole.
