Caution
Never raise cutting unit while blades are
rotating because it is hazardous.
Hydraulic LIft Lever
The hydraulic lift lever (Fig. 21) has three positions:
FLOAT, TRANSPORT and RAISE. To lower cutting unit
to the ground, move lift lever forward into notch in seat
platform — FLOAT. The FLOAT position is used for
mowing and when machine is not in operation. To raise
cutting unit, pull lift lever rearward to the RAISE position.
After cutting unit is raised, allow lift lever to move to the
TRANSPORT position. Cutting unit must be raised when
driving from one work area to another.

Pull up on sleeve on toggle switch handle and move handle
to ON to ENGAGE electric PTO clutch (Fig. 21). Pull up
on sleeve and move handle to OFF to DISENGAGE
electric PTO clutch. The only time the PTO switch should
be in the ENGAGE position is when the implement is down
in operating position and ready to begin operation.

Temperature Gauge
The coolant temperature gauge (Fig. 21) registers the
temperature of the coolant in the cooling system. If
temperature of coolant gets too high the engine will shut off
automatically and the High Temperature Shutoff Light will
light. When this happens, turn the ignition key off, check
radiator for debris, check the fan belt and check the
expansion tank for proper coolant level. The high
temperature shutoff will automatically reset when the
coolant temperature has reached a safe level.
Fuel Gauge
The fuel gauge (Fig. 21) indicates quantity of fuel
remaining in fuel tank.
Ignition Key Switch
Three positions: OFF, ON / Preheat and START. (Fig. 21).
Throttle
Throttle (Fig. 21) is used to operate engine at various
speeds. Moving throttle forward increases engine speed —
FAST; rearward decreases engine speed — SLOW. The
throttle controls the speed of the cutter blades and, in
conjunction with traction pedal, controls ground speed of
the traction unit.
