Seat Adjustment Lever - Snapper ZT19441KWV Safety Instructions & Operator's Manual

Ignition Switch
The ignition switch starts and stops the engine; it has
three positions:
OFF Stops the engine and shuts off the
electrical system.
RUN Allows the engine to run and powers the
electrical system.
START Cranks the engine for starting.
NOTE: Never leave the ignition switch in the RUN posi-
tion with the engine stopped–this drains the battery.
Hour Meter / Maintenance Reminder
The hour meter measures the number of hours the key
has been in the RUN position. The hour meter will flash
an initial oil change indicator at 5 hours, and a lubrication
reminder every 50 hours. These reminders display for
approximately two hours and will automatically reset
themselves.
Note: The hour meter will register the passage of time
when the key is in the RUN position, even if the engine is
not running. The hour meter has a self contained power
source so the total hours are always visible.
PTO Switch
The PTO (Power Take-Off) switch engages and disen-
gages attachments that use the PTO. To engage the
PTO, pull UP on the switch. Push DOWN to disengage.
Note that the operator must be seated firmly in the rider
seat for the PTO to function.
Transmission Oil Fill
Transmission oil is added through the transmission oil
expansion chamber. It also serves as extra holding
capacity for oil as the transmission heats up and the oil
expands. See CHECK TRANSMISSION OIL LEVEL for
oil level check and fill procedures.
Transmission Release Valves
The transmission release valves deactivate the transmis-
sions so that the unit can be pushed by hand. See
PUSHING THE UNIT BY HAND for operational informa-
tion.

The seat can be adjusted forward and backward. Move
the adjustment lever towards the left, slide the seat to the
