OPERATION
Mowing in Reverse (RMO)
If an operator chooses to mow in reverse, the RMO sys-
tem can be used. To use the Reverse Mowing Option
(RMO) turn the RMO key after the PTO is engaged. The
L.E.D. light will illuminate, and the operator can then mow
in reverse. Each time the PTO is engaged the RMO needs
to be reactivated if desired. The key should be removed to
restrict access to the RMO feature.
Attachment Operation in Reverse
If an operator chooses to operate a PTO driven attach-
ment in reverse, the RMO system can be used. To use
the Reverse Mowing Option (RMO) turn the RMO key
after the PTO is engaged. The L.E.D. light will illuminate,
and the operator can then operate the attachment in re-
verse. Each time the PTO is disengaged the RMO needs
to be reactivated if desired. The key should be removed to
restrict access to the RMO feature.
