DANGER
An uncovered discharge opening will allow
objects to be thrown in an operator's or
bystander's direction. Also, contact with the
blade could occur. Thrown objects or blade
contact can cause serious injury or death.
Never operate the mower with the discharge
deflector raised, removed, or altered unless there
is a grass collection system or mulch kit in place
and working properly.
The PTO push-pull switch engages the cutting blades.
Be sure that all persons are clear of the mower deck
and discharge area before engaging PTO.
Important: Operator must be in seat before the
PTO can operate.
Important: 96 Inch Deck Only: Operator must
be in seat and the outer deck wings need to be
lowered into the mowing position before the
PTO will engage.
To engage the PTO, pull the switch outward to
engage the blades.
Note: The clutch saver feature allows the PTO to
be engaged at any speed.
