SECTION 2: FINDING YOUR MODEL NUMBER
This Operator's Manual is an important part of your new rider. It will help you assemble, prepare and maintain
your rider. Please read and understand what it says.
Before you start to prepare your tractor for its first use, please locate the model plate and copy the information
from it in this Operator's Manual. The information on the model plate is very important if you need help from
your dealer or the MTD customer support department.
• Every tractor has a model plate. You can locate it by lifting the seat and looking at the seat bracket.
• An example of what the model plate will look like is shown below.
XXX-X-XXX-X-XXX XXXXXXXXXXX
