sure that PTO is disengaged.
Adjusting the Side Bumpers
(Rear Discharge Units Only)
Mount the side bumpers in the top holes when
operating in height of cuts higher than 2 1/2 inches
(64 mm) and in the center holes when operating in
height of cuts lower than 2 1/2 inches (64 mm).
Note: When bumpers become worn, switch the
bumpers to the opposite sides of the mower, flipping
them over. This allows the bumpers to be used longer
before replacing them.

levers outward to the neutral locked position.
2. Disengage the PTO.

Transporting

Transporting the Machine
Use a heavy-duty trailer or truck to transport the
machine. Ensure that the trailer or truck has all
necessary lighting and marking as required by law.
Thoroughly read all of the safety instructions.
Knowing this information could help you, your
family, pets, or bystanders avoid injury.
To transport the machine:
• Lock the brake and block the wheels.
• Be sure the fuel shut-off valve is closed.
• Securely fasten the machine to the trailer or
truck with straps, chains, cable, or ropes. Only
use the four designated tie-down locations on
the mower–two on the left side and two on the
right (see Figure 21). Use these locations even
when transporting the mower with an attached
accessory. Using non-designated locations may
cause damage to the mower and/or attachment.
